The Pressure Hand is the first major Grab Pack upgrade players unlock in Poppy Playtime Chapter 5. It is required for progression and allows the Grab Pack to fire a charged force blast that breaks obstacles and activates certain mechanisms.
This guide explains where to find the Grab Pack, how to reach the Main Office, the locker code solution, and how the Pressure Hand works.
How Do You Get the Grab Pack First?
Before you can even think about the Pressure Hand, you need to recover a Grab Pack. Huggy Wuggy snatched your previous one, so you're starting fresh in Chapter 5.
Head to the Boilers area where you'll spot a massive Bron the Dinosaur chomping on a Grab Pack. Here's how to retrieve it:
- Walk up Bron's tail to climb onto his back
- Jump onto the nearby blue box
- Leap to the overhanging blue pipe
- Follow the path to the catwalk
Info
Bron won't resist when you take the Grab Pack. He's completely passive, so don't worry about timing or stealth here.
Once you're face to face with the big guy on the catwalk, simply grab the Grab Pack. No combat, no chase sequence, just a straightforward pickup.
How Do You Reach the Main Office?
With your Grab Pack equipped, you'll need to create a path forward. Look for the chained platform on your right side.
Drag that platform all the way to the left. It becomes a makeshift bridge spanning a gap you couldn't cross otherwise. Walk across and you'll find yourself at the Main Office entrance, where the Pressure Hand locker awaits.

What's the Locker Code for the Pressure Hand?
Inside the Main Office, you'll immediately notice a locker with a four digit keypad. The code isn't written anywhere obvious, and that's where your blacklight comes in clutch.
Follow these steps to uncover the code:
- Locate the whiteboard in the Main Office
- Switch on your blacklight using F or your designated key
- Shine the blacklight on the whiteboard surface
- Look for the purple arrow pointing to the top of the board
- Launch one of your hands with LMB and flip the whiteboard over
Warning
The blacklight reveals hidden writing throughout Chapter 5. Keep it ready because you'll use this mechanic repeatedly.
On the reverse side, you'll see multiple digits scattered across the surface. Some are written normally while others only appear under blacklight. Look for the circled numbers on the right side.
The locker code is 0859.
Punch that code into the keypad and the locker swings open, revealing your shiny new Pressure Hand upgrade.
How the Pressure Hand Works
The Pressure Hand upgrade gives the Grab Pack a charged blast ability. Instead of only grabbing objects, players can now build pressure and release it to push or break obstacles.
Attach the hand to a surface, hold the charge input to build power, then release to fire the blast. A longer charge results in a stronger impact. Many obstacles in Chapter 5 require a full charge to break.

Now get out there and start blasting through those obstacles. The horrors of Playtime Co. aren't going to wait around while you figure things out.
