We were able to bypass the noise issue back on Bral during our warehouse breaking and ent... hmmm... project to rescue the kidnapped fair lady, by combining a silence spell with the knock.
That bleeds us of spells faster here. But to Starker's point of our last use of knock and the gong sound, it could potentially save resources by not needing to fight every wandering monster within a hundred yards.
"If you’d like the noisy version, I can sing the door open with Knock this minute—but my vote is tools → Silence+Knock/Dispel → Heat+crowbar, and we leave the fog-arch for last with proper wards up. Your call, Sir Chadwick; I’ll tune to whichever door you point me at.”
Xymox hesitates a moment, then continues. "Could their be a hidden or secret key for the four-flanged rod?"
“Alright, I’m going to romance this very ordinary lock with my very ordinary thieves’ tools. Expectations low, eyebrows ready. Everyone take two polite steps back—if it opens, I’ll pretend I meant it.”

Starker:”Excellent! I always regret mundane doors I Knock. Your abilities to persuade mechanical locks and audiences alike are excellent complements to my abilities to incinerate them.”
Chadwick gives Xymox an extremely formal bow ""Why thank YOU sir!" Then proceeds through the door while saying over his shoulder while laughing "This is most definitely going to suck." While dancing a jig through the door.

Dex check: 14+4 (+3 prof.) = 21.
Which door?
With an audible click, Xymox finds success in unlocking the door.
Xymox gives an exaggerated bow to Chadwick. "After you, sir."
Starker:”Excellent! I always regret mundane doors I Knock. Your abilities to persuade mechanical locks and audiences alike are excellent complements to my abilities to incinerate them.”
Chadwick gives Xymox an extremely formal bow ""Why thank YOU sir!" Then proceeds through the door while saying over his shoulder while laughing "This is most definitely going to suck." While dancing a jig through the door.
Kragen looks at Xymox. “Well done Xymox, your capabilities continue to surprise this humble servant of Tyr.”
Then seeing Sir Chadwick curtsey through the door, follows shaking his head, with his eyes rolling behind those tinted googles.
