They had the means to open and close the gates, and they had the weapons necessary to deal with the drones, should they encounter any. With some of the other creatures, they weren't so confident, but they had to give it a shot. They were professionals, after all.

The doors rolled open and the drones poured through, now aware of just how to deal with the doors.
