The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
How can I open this gate?
1 of 6: Look to the right of it to see a vertical row of four handles.
2 of 6: After quicksaving, try using each handle to see what it does.
3 of 6: You'll soon discover that the third handle down activates a dart trap (and is therefore useless), and that the other three handles toggle the open/closed status of three different gates.
4 of 6: Since the lowest handle only affects the farthest gate, first use the top two handles to get the two nearest gates open.
5 of 6: Use the top handle if the second gate is closed, then use the second-from-top handle to open the first gate and close the third one.
6 of 6: You can then use the bottom handle to open the third gate (if it's closed).
