it can’t be that hard to have an automated lock on the door.

No, but human factors dictate: it can be that hard to use the lock properly.

Some places do this, other places don't have a good layout to make metal detectors a practical thing for the MRI suite.

Often (depending on location), the most expensive part of the MRI suite isn't the device, but the room itself.
