During what years did Ghiberti work on the Baptistry doors?
Ghiberti worked on his first set of doors 1403 - 1424 and the second (La Porta del Paradiso) 1425 - 1452. Since there was a set of doors by Andrea Pisano, finished in 1336, the ones by Ghiberti were the second and the third sets, thus enriching the Baptistry with beautifully sculpted doors in all the doorways.

I suppose you are talking about Florence without saying so. The last set of panels for the Baptistry doors, the Doors of Paradise, are the most valuable ones.

Is there a way to force-open a blast door using explosives?
Yes- but not easily. Blast doors are designed to remain in place under the pressure generated in an explosion. Up to a point. When explosives generate more pressure than the door was designed to resist, the door loses. Bear in mind that SOME blast doors are disigned to protect against the detonation of a nuclear weapon.
