The hatch is located between the two merc spawns, with fences surrounding the front and sides of the hatch. Stairs on both sides lead up to merc spawn rooms, while a ramp (right side) and set of stairs (left side) lead down to the hatch from Salt Rock, acting as paths for both the mercs and Robots.

- Chaps: To the side is a small staircase that leads to the roof of the building, holding a large ammo kit.
- Mann Mining (Main Road): A staircase leads up to the roof of the building from its side, the roof holding a large ammo kit.
- The Cliffs: The spawn point for robots. They may jump down from above the mineshaft, from a small opening next to the Mann Mining building, or next to the "Judgement Shed". It's worth noting that despite the low height of the building, neither players or robots can stand on the Judgement Shed.
