That door has no handle, no sign of a swipe card reader. Any ideas how the people who can would get that door open?

My guess...some kind of reader hidden in the door that triggers a mechanical device that lifts the panic bar (another comment's comment) or otherwise disengages some such other locking mechanism.

My guess is that they just use noclip and walk straight though.
My assumption is that this door is an exit — perhaps an emergency exit with a push bar. The room is big, 1152 square feet according to the article, so it probably has a real entrance somewhere else which couldn’t be photographed.
