This is the 'backdoor' entry, literally and figuratively. The 'pinto sa panlikuran' is where you sneak in late at night. It can also refer to anything 'for the back,' like a back scratcher ('pangamot na panlikuran'). In office politics, it's the unofficial channel or the backroom deal.
From 'pan-' (locative/instrumental) + 'likod' (back) + '-an' (locative suffix).
