Portal 2 Hints
How can I get over to that doorway?
1 of 6: You can put a portal on the wall with the sign, but don't bother. There are no portal-friendly surfaces nearby, and you'll have to go through a portal-canceling force field before you can find any.
2 of 6: Past the force field, move along until you find an elevator to the surface that you can't take, then turn around and look up to see a high-up walkway section that you need to get to.
3 of 6: Thankfully, there's no need for portal flings here. Look for a portal-friendly surface at the right end of the walkway, plus another one near the inaccessible elevator.
4 of 6: Portal yourself onto the walkway, then go through the force field to find yourself back outside.
5 of 6: Turn right and look up to see the pump station door, then fire a blue portal onto the wall to the left of it.
6 of 6: Put an orange portal on the wall at the other end of the walkway, then go through it to end up next to the pump station door.
