Resident Evil 4 Lithographic Stone locations
Before you can solve the trick door puzzle, you'll have to find three more Lithographic Stones, as Stone A is already in the Wall With Four Slots.
Lithographic Stone B location
Stone B is right beside the Wall With Four Slots, to the left, on a bookcase.
Lithographic Stone D location
Stone D is in a glass cabinet in the southwestern corner of the Bindery. You have to use your knife to smash the glass and pick it up.
Lithographic Stone C location
Stone C is on top of a pile of books near the southeastern wall of the Bindery.
Once you have all of the Lithographic Stones, head back to the trick wall near the window to start the puzzle.

Resident Evil 4 Wall with Four Slots puzzle solution in Bindery
Please note: the puzzle solution below is only confirmed for Assisted and Standard difficulties, as we haven't been able to check the solution on Hardcore and Professional. However, it should follow the same logic if there is a difference in the exact solution.
To solve the Wall With Four Slots puzzle, you have to match the symbols on the Lithographic Stones with the exact symbols displayed on the trick door. So the right picture, colour, and what shape the outline is.
Two of the symbols on the Wall With Four Slots only have the correct colour and shape, however, not the picture, so you have to work out what it is with a process of elimination.
One important thing to keep in mind is that you can rotate each Lithographic Stone to reveal another symbol. If you can't seem to match-up with the symbols on the trick door, this is probably why.
Here's the exact solution to the Wall With Four Slots puzzle in Resident Evil 4:
- Top - Red shield with a square border
- Right - Blue sword with a square border
- Bottom - Blue chest armor with a hexagon border
- Left - Red helmet with a hexagon border
Here's a picture of the solution if you prefer to see it:
Remember, if you don't have the symbols we mentioned above, you should turn each stone to reveal another symbol, and you'll find all the right ones.
