Just a quick question, because I forgot it or can't find it anywhere, but given the off chance that you want to bust down a door or container with repeated punishment, are inanimate objects such as doors and chests subject to critical hits?

No. A box has no amatomy.

While some objects have actual weakpoints that can be struck, there is no such thing as a critical hit on an object unless the DM rules it...

Maybe so. But a door has hinges, and a box might have a padlock. Constructs may be excempt from critical hits, but I figured that many inanimate objects such as these do have identifiable weak points.

However a strike against a hinge or a padlock wont destroy the door or the box.
