Those rules already exist: just use the Breaking Through Barriers rules
from page 125 of SR3. Basically you compare the attacker's Strength against
the Barrier Rating of the door, and if it's enough to bring the door down
to one-half its original rating, it opens. Thus, a character with Strength
6 will need to bash twice against a BR 4 door to open it -- the first
attempt lowers the BR to 3, and the second to 2, at which point it opens.
OTOH, if the door were BR 2 to start with, a single bash by the same
character would open a two-meter hole in it -- that's to say, the door
splinters instantly.
