The door you came to is large, iron-bound, has no visible locks on it but looks heavy and hard to move. Too thick to hear through it too. A bloodstained human skull is fixed to the centre of the door by an iron spike. Blood drops stops there - Orog is obviously inside.
Looking at the door Bernard asks, "How do we want to do this? Knock and see if they will come out? Push it open a crack and shoot what we can through it... try and rush in and just take them?"
Alyssa furrows her brow at the thought of a 4th option inspired by what Bernard just asked. It seemed a little whacky, even for her, but she'd blurt it out anyway. "Crack the door open, send in some sparks and firecrackers to startle and distract before we charge in? Could throw them off if they have a trap?"
Ramious nods, seemingly less reckless for the moment. "Sure, let's do it." He pulls out a javelin, his only range weapon. Then he gets ready to push on the door, just enough to get it open a crack, and then he'll step back and let the fireworks begin.

Alyssa would position herself close to the doorframe, preparing to release an extravagant show of sparks and fireworks into the room when (if?) one of the boys succeed at opening the door. "If you want a queue, I'll start with red sparks, then transition to yellow, and when it hits green, that's when I'll be dropping the spell for you to rush in."
The door did not crack opened - in fact, it took a slam of Bernard's body against the door (his hands clenching weapons) to open that heavy thing. There was no way occupants of the room were unaware of your entrance.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ogre: 5, wolfs: 17, Orog: 12
The doors finally gave up and Bernard, shoulder forward, burst in.
Beyond the door was a small chamber (30x30ft) covered in poorly cured animal hides and illuminated by smoking torches in bronze sconces. The smell coming out of the chamber was almost visible and absolutely indescribable. A monstrous creature about ten feet in height stepped forward, a massive axe in one hand. Two huge wolves strain at chains held closely in its other hand. “You think to challenge the Great Ulfe?” the creature booms. “Vak! Thrag! At them!”
It dropped the chains and, as the wolves spring forward, the monster charged at Bernard with a roar of rage.
Ogre vs Bernard: Attack: 17 Damage: 17 (not a surprise, ready action)
(Visibly bleeding Orog was standing in the farthest corned, readying the spear) The axe swooshed by ranger missing by far.
Initiative order: Bernard Alyssa Leon Ogre wolf 1 wolf 2 Orog Ramious
Bernard ducks the axe as it came flying through at him. His lips curled into a sneer and he let his anger flare up a moment. His fey bugs picked up on his emotions and began to buzz as black bugs began to poor out of his sleeves. As they did Bernard retaliated with a slash of his shortsword, his bugs following in its wake.
Bonus action: aggitate swarm. Weapons deal extra 1d6 force damage for 1 minute and targets hit are either pushed or pulled 5 ft towards me.
Actions shortsword Attack: 24 Damage: 5 plus 6 force damage and he's pushed 5ft away.
Move: only if the ogre is hit and is pushed back will Bernard retreat back through the door with the others.
Ogre was pushed back and Bernard could safely retreat (how far?). The door is opened now, Ramious and Bernard are blocking the entry, 5 ft past the door are Ogre and two dire wolfs.
The elf's eyes will cloud over in white, she'll glimpse into Leon's next attack. "Don't hold back, he won't succeed."
(Would like to provide Leon with one of her portents if he chooses to use an attack that requires his target to make a saving throw. If so, his target would fail with a 10)

Leon once more takes up rear guard position.

Bernard will peer through the gap and if any orcs are in sight he will fire an arrow through.

There is no gap - gentle push did nothing to it, you obviously need to put some muscle to work to open that thing. (Meaning Strength check)

Bernard puts his bow away and pulls out a shortsword in one hand and dart in the other and will help Ramious push open the door.
Ramious grunts and puts his shoulder into it, with help from Bernard.
15. +4 if I can use Athletics.

Just 5ft futher back from there is good.
Alyssa will take aim through the opening Bernard would provide. She'd zero her focus in on Orog, releasing four glowing darts into his sternum.
