Can anyone advise what control setting is supposed to open the door at the bottom passenger kickpanel on a 87 GMC? It doesn't seem to open on any setting. I have A/C, but it is currently inoperable.

That lower door will open when the A/C is on the max or recirculate setting. It also closes off the cowl intake (outside under the windshield) to about 80% so you get a small amount of outside air, but mostly inside air recirculating.

Do you have vacuum to your HVAC controls so that it switches between floor, vent and windshield?

Yes, it switches between floor, vent, and defrost. Just haven't gotten to start on A/C yet. Thanks for the response
