>Well at last you have arrived - run over and pull on the welcome cord. You finally get to meet Siegfried, he sounds pretty friendly and normal from his sign. You are also thinking that if in another life or qst playthrough you had simply stepped away from a certain unpassable line of riot police and spoken to a certain Red Dancer talking with a Handsome Trenchcoat Man, maybe you would have gotten here a lot faster with much less trouble....
Send one of your companions over to pull the cord, whilst you observe from a very, very ,very safe distance

>Obey the sign instructions completely, deposit all your weapons and items in the slightly ajar door, then pull the cord
>This is so simple. Walk into the ajar maintenance door, use the Sledgehammer to breach the side wall behind the reinforced blast door. You can just circumvent this stupid welcome cord and the fortified bunker entrance.
>You wonder if Siegfried's military experience included being some sort of EOD or explosive ordnance / bomb disposal operator, using drones or bomb disposal robots. Unless you approach this area with extreme caution the entire underground section might collapse. Retreat to another passage junction and find another way (companion morale declines, -1 from Very High to just High, 5/6 to 4/6)
>Just ignore this blast door and entire situation. Walk past it and investigate the strange crooning / wailing lullaby in the dark tunnel beyond...
