Remote door lamp no servo

[Firstdown911]

i built a lamp above a remote door and now i cannot open the door because the lamp is the first and last thing it selects

There is only one solution:
Remove the lamp

In my prison it is often the autoplacer which places lamps above the spots where I want to build (cell) coors or other 1 tile furniture. As soon as I discover it I emove the lamps in order to avoid the problems you describe

[Firstdown911]

If I remove it, they are still trying to go through the door to remove it, even when i remove the walls.

Are you able to install a servo without having to mopen the door?

in this case you could install the servo and then connect the servo to a door console, so that a guard is able to open the door via the console

[Firstdown911]

no it needs to open to be installed.

i put the servo in front of the door that seems to help

That didn't work for me but i found another solution.
1. hover over the door
2. press tab until you see remote door (tab cycles through multiple objects on a tile)
3. press lock open
4. install and link your servo

TIL the tab button has a function, and a really useful one. Thanks, bro!
