There are no "antonyms" for the word "through" in the few lexical dictionaries I checked.

However, human intuition tells me maybe you are probably looking for: "Back" or "Out"

Through


adverb

From one end to the other: around, over, round, throughout. See part
To an end or conclusion: over. Opposite = start

adjective

Proceeding or lying in an uninterrupted line or course: direct, straight, straightforward.
Having reached completion: complete, done.
Having no further relationship: done, finished.
No longer effective, capable, or valuable: done, done for, finished, washed-up. Informal: kaput. Idioms: at the end of the line (or road), over the hill, past one's prime.

So also opposite = start

Chaz is right
