Switch Handle location in Shadows of Rose

As you progress through the Shadows of Rose DLC in Resident Evil: Village, you will find a door that requires a Cell Key to open. Upon opening the door, Rose will meet an alternate version of herself that she then proceeds to follow through the dungeon. Considering this is pretty normal for a Resident Evil game, you will eventually find yourself getting stopped by a large metal door that requires a Switch Handle to open. Unfortunately, the box that Switch Handle is normally in is empty. Time to find another.

Go through the only door in the room that is slightly ajar. It is to the left of the large metal door blocking your path. Inside the small room, you will see a note telling you to venture deeper into the dungeon. Crouch and go through the small hole to the right of the note. This will lead you to a hallway with two paths. Take the path leading straight that leads to a cell door.

Interact with it to unlock it and walk through to get back to the hallway.
