Aspects of the present invention relate to a door arrangement for providing access into a cabin (103) within a body (101) of a vehicle (100), a door system, a vehicle (100) and a method. The door arrangement comprises a first door (106) comprising a first crosspiece (108) extending across the width of the first door (106), and a second door (106) comprising a second crosspiece (111) extending across the width of the second door (106). The door arrangement also comprises a barrier member (118) and an actuator (119) configured to move the barrier member (118) between a retracted position and a barrier position. When the first door (106) and the second door (106) are in closed positions, a first end portion of the first crosspiece (108) is aligned with a first end portion of the second crosspiece (111), and in the barrier position the barrier member (118) extends along the first end portions (114, 115) of the first crosspiece (108) and the second crosspiece (111) to resist external forces acting to misalign the first end portions (114, 115).
