Entrance Zone

Subsection-01 of Site-02, also known as the Entrance Zone, is one of the four zones in SCP: Secret Laboratory. It contains the only exits that lead out of the facility.

Operational Guide Overview

Subsection-01 of Site-02 is the primary civilian work area. It hosts a large variety of private (and open) office spaces, staff lockers, and large, open spaces for Site Staff to relax and recuperate in.

The ‘entrance zone’, as it is known by staff, directly connects the facility’s transport elevators to the surface; with connection points to the Heavy Containment Zone, as well as [DATA EXPUNGED].

“Recording this for my personal log because I got literally nothing better to do. Another day in the office, another boring day in the office. It’s always the same old, same old. ‘Hey Chuck, finish those TPS reports. Hey Chuck, input some of this data to the main servers. Do some check-overs.’ I’d kill to do something different. Something impactful for once.”

-Charles H. Goodwin, Analyst, Site-02 

Description

Entrance Zone (EZ) is one of four zones in Site-02.

The Conference Hallway is a hallway with two locked doors. These two doors can not be opened.

One of the doors is labeled as Conference Room 9B, while the other is labeled as Dr. L.

Map Layouts

There are five possible map layouts of Entrance Zone. Special Rooms are randomized in these layouts. SCP-079 map rotates both HCZ and EZ on its display by 180°, these images are based off how the layouts appear in the game files and not SCP-079's map.
The Orange Endroom labeled as "EZ" represents the checkpoint. It always spawns in the same location and is two hallways long.
Below are all the possible map layouts, using their official names.
