I'm trying to make something that'll grip and twist a door k**b...?

Question

I locked the keys to my room in my room and it'll need to be opened from the inside - I'm too big to climb in the window but how to open the door? my parents are away - this sucks!!!

Answer 1

Kick the door in or get someone (a kid) to crawl through the window.  I had to get my grandson to crawl through the dog door one time to unlock a door.

Answer 2

Cant you just get a screwdriver and remov the lock, then put it all back again once you have your keys?

Answer 3

if you have a credit card or any other card made of plastic you can slide that between the door jam and the door to release the lock. at worst you can use a butter knife the same way............good luck.

Answer 4

Are you good friends with any neighbours who will lend you a child to climb through the window for you?

Answer 5

what do you need to turn? and is the handle near to the window? you can get disabled grabbers/jar openers/shelf reaching gadgets. some from supermarkets or hardware shops. failing that,wire coat hangers make good reachers for keys, don't bother  trying to pick the lock unless it's very old and simple. if its a single yale lock on a simple door frame, you can just kick it down, make sure you kick just where the lock is. that way you won't damage too much. then you just need to fix a little bit of doorframe. think you need to say what kind of door/lock/ and handle.

Answer 6

How did you manage to get out of the room if it was locked? :S

Also, you're better off looking up some sort of lock pick technique, or call in a locksmith. It's your best bet. Unless you've got some sort of wild excuse for booting down the door, lol.

Answer 7

Borrow a fishing rod and 'fish' your keys out through the window.

Answer 8

Take door off the hinges(remove pin)/use small screwdriver or credit card on latch / cut off handel;open then replace with new lock/

Answer 9

can you get a s***w driver to the actual door handle/lock mechanism to take it apart and get into it and manually unlock it?
