Secrets[edit]
- In the main hub, use the gray crates to the northeast to get a medikit. (sector 152)
- In the area with writing on the floor, go out the east window and teleport until you are back in. Go out the window again repeating the process, then the third time you go out the window, you will be able to head out into the void. Once here, make your way to the southeast part of the building and enter. Shoot the barrels and flip the switch to raise steps to the west. Take them to a radiation suit and an invulnerability. (sector 552)
- A demon block is at the southwest end of the building. Enter the block from the north end to get a super shotgun and shotgun shells. (sector 554)
- In the main hub, look to the southwest cage to find ammo clips and a chaingun. Shoot the door here. When you enter the void area, head to the southwest side outside the building and shoot the evil eyes to open the other part of the door, allowing you to access the ammo clips and chaingun. (sector 558)

Trivia[edit]
- The name and overall theme of this level is both a reference and a parody to the Baron Door trilogy, which was a series of maps that started as an in-joke between Clippy and his friends about whether barons of Hell can open doors. You can find the names of this trilogy on the floor in the north section of the map.
