Does the DM Scranton office have more than one exit?
In U.S. adaptation of The Office, we typically see Dunder-Mifflin Scranton employees/guests walking in and out of the main front door across from the receptionist's desk to enter/exit the office. However, this got me to thinking: surely that building doesn't have only ONE way in and out of an office suite.
Are there any other entrances that are available for use? Especially for the employees in the annex? Granted, yes you wouldn't want guests coming in that way, but what if there was a (real, not Dwight-simulated) fire? How would annex employees get out?
Best Answer
Yes, there are several exits.
In S05E14 (Stress Relief, Part 1), Dwight stages a fire and everyone tries escaping. During this scene, once they notice the "fire" they attempt a total of four exit doors.
After they try those doors and have no luck, Michael freaks out and yells, "okay we're trapped, everyone for themselves!", implying that there're no more exits for them to try.
Confirmed exits:
- The main entrance
- Next to Meredith's desk
- Staircase (from either the main office area or the annex)
- Another door in the annex

Answer 2
Yes I know for sure there is a backstair case. Here is a clip of Dwight dragging Stanley from the annex through a hallway in the back down a staircase that leads to the front door of the building downstairs.
