I don't know why; no errors are being produced. Here is my code:

view source
01print("Script Active!")
02script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
03    print("Button1 Clicked")
04    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar1.Anchored = false
05    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar2.Anchored = false
06    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar3.Anchored = false
07    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar4.Anchored = false
08    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar5.Anchored = false
09    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar6.Anchored = false
10    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Main.Disabled = true
11end)

There are no errors, or things being printed. it is in a starter Gui and is a normal script(not local). Is It my code? Or Is it roblox(I have tried Mousebutton1Down That Doesn't Work) Let me know if you need more info.

This would work but it needs to be a local script rather than a server script. Also connect is deprecated, use Connect (capital C)

We live in FilteringEnabled times. That is client can not manipulate shared workspace, other than through moving his character, remote events and/or remote functions...

Change your script to localScript and edit like this:

view source
1local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
2local PrisonCellOpenRequest = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("PrisonCellOpenRequest")
3 
4print("Script Active!")
5script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
6    print("Button1 Clicked")
7    local result = PrisonCellOpenRequest:InvokeServer()
8    print(result)
9end)

Then add this script to a ServerScriptStorage:

view source
01local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
02local PrisonCellOpenRequest = Instance.new("RemoteFunction")
03PrisonCellOpenRequest.Parent = ReplicatedStorage
04PrisonCellOpenRequest.Name = "PrisonCellOpenRequest"
05 
06local function onPrisonCellOpenRequest(player)
07 
08    --you can add checks here if player is allowed to open the cell door here
09    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar1.Anchored = false
10    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar2.Anchored = false
11    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar3.Anchored = false
12    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar4.Anchored = false
13    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar5.Anchored = false
14    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Bar6.Anchored = false
15    workspace.PrisonCell.Door.Main.Disabled = true
16    return "Success"
17 
18end
19 
20PrisonCellOpenRequest.OnServerInvoke = onPrisonCellOpenRequest

Edit: Changed connect to Connect
