Why is it locked? To keep you out suggests denied access. Locked from inside suggests someone chose to exclude you. Unknown reason suggests mysterious blocking.
What's behind the door? The desired destination shapes meaning. A room you need suggests blocked necessity. Unknown space suggests blocked possibility itself.
