That's a famous bug which can be solved by several means: 1) save and reload, many people stated that the bar can be moved afterwards, 2) use the console to noclip through the door or 3) install the unofficial patch (basic or full) and then load a saved game from before that level, this will move the bar aside.

The Ming door question

Some people have trouble with it because you're NOT supposed to active the "open" button or anything. You have to physically push the lever sideways to open the door. I struggled with that until I found that out. Ignore the "activate" button and slide the bar sealing the door first.

Just walk into it and push it -- the same as you would do in real life.

That's the way to do it but still for many people the bar does not move. In that case choose one of my suggestions.
