The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I open this other gate?
1 of 3: Notice the magic helmet on the pedestal near the gate.
2 of 3: Taking the helmet will open the gate, but it'll also trigger a spear trap, so watch out for it.
3 of 3: An alternative is to look up and find a pull chain on the archway near the ceiling that'll open the gate without triggering the trap.
