Latch door broken? Tricks to get your door open
Below are some useful tricks you can apply to get your door open when the door handle is broken.
Note that the feasibility of the tricks depends on the type of door: interior door, front door (with mailbox slot), back door. In addition, the chances of success depend very much on the materials at your disposal. Think tools and a phone. In addition, there is generally a greater chance of success if the door is unlocked.
Opening the door through the mailbox
Is the latch on the front door off? And is there a mailbox in the door? Then you can try to get the door open through the mailbox. If you have a piece of iron wire or a coat hanger, you can try sticking it through the mailbox and use it to push down the door handle on the inside.
Using a spare key
Are you locked somewhere in your home? And did you give a spare key to a family member or neighbor? Then you can call that person and ask them to come and free you from this predicament.
Taking out the hinges of the door
You can unscrew the hinges of the door and then lift the door out. Don’t have any tools? Then you can try using brute force to pull the hinges out.
Kicking down the door
If the door turns outward, you can try to get it open by kicking it hard.
Out through the window
Is there a window through which you can crawl in or out to enter or exit your home? Then you could take advantage of that.
Using a pass to open the door
Do you have a pass handy? And is the door unlocked? Then you can try to use this pass to open the door. You do this by inserting the pass between the door and the doorframe and moving it back and forth at the latch bolt.
Prying open the door
If you have access to a crowbar or other piece of steel or iron, you can use it to try to pry the door open with it.
Deforming door and/or frame
You can try to open the door by deforming a piece of the door or frame. For this you must be powerful.
