Fallout 3 Hints
How can I open this door if I can't pick the lock?
1 of 10: You'll have to get to an electrical switch on a higher floor that'll open it for you.
2 of 10: Return to the door that you entered the building through, then go up the stairs that are a bit to the east of it.
3 of 10: Turn right at the top of the stairs and jump over to the nearby stick-out bit of flooring.
4 of 10: Move forward to the wall, then turn left and go along the narrow floor remains until you reach a doorway on your right.
5 of 10: Past that, go through another doorway and a small cubicle room to reach a rubble-filled hallway.
6 of 10: As you go down it, watch out for two ceiling turrets ahead.
7 of 10: Past the turrets is a large room with a wrecked floor. Go down the stairs to the lower floor, then forward to the doorway on the opposite side of the room.
8 of 10: In the room past that is a door to the Depot Training Wing area. You'll have to get through it and then the Depot Offices area.
