Open the scanner
You pry at the scanner a bit and even get the cover off, but can't do much with the mess of wires.
Or, with electrical kit:
You crack open the scanner and easily find the wire to get the door open. The red light that begins blinking is probably a bad sign, however.

Swipe your badge
With janitorial ID/mailroom ID:
You swipe your badge and the door gives a dejected "bee-donk." Giving it another try just earns the same sound.
With downtown manager ID:
You swipe your badge and the door unlocks with a polite click. You let yourself in to a clean, well-appointed office with a few papers scattered around and a prominent computer.
The computer has one odd bit of customization, the faint image of a cartoon ghost on the screen like a watermark. You can almost convince yourself it's not there.

Leave it be
You make a mental note of its location and leave the door be.
