At deck level are various items of aircraft maintenance and safety equipment and the watertight door leading to access lobby 3QI-00. Above this door at Upper Gallery Deck level is the access to the Upper Hangar Control Room. On the right is the doorway for access to the after part of the hangar when the fire curtain is deployed.
