Woke up, Friday the 13th. Couldn’t get into my bathroom to get ready for work. I tried everything imaginable. Then found your video. You changed the direction of my day. Thank you!
Omg!! It works! I was trying everything, but couldn't open the door. I found your video and followed your tip and the door opened like magic!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
This was a brilliant suggestion. I actually got locked in my bedroom on the second floor, fortunately I could climb down from the balcony onto the garage and then drop off the back of the garage onto the grass. Once I made it around to the other side of the door, it took about 10 minutes and an A4 size plastic folder cover to open the door. A good idea was to put the latch in the middle of the A4 sheet, push one corner in first and then push the whole sheet in. Once I got it in it didn't open immediately, I'm pretty sure because the sheet bent around the latch, but then I decided to push the sheet up and down in the latch and after a while the door popped open. I was incredibly lucky this happened to my bedroom door because after this I went around the house to check all the doors and found that the downstairs toilet was showing symptoms of the same issue. The symptom to look out for is the door handle shows resistance when trying turn it and/or if it makes a thump noise halfway through the turn. If I couldn’t open the toilet door the only way, I could have escaped would have been for me to use the top of the toilet as a battering ram on the door or wall. For some this could turn into a life-threatening situation, if you get stuck in a room without a phone or any kind of escape it could be the last thing you ever do and idea getting trapped in the toilet and not being able to open the door or call for help scares the living sh*t out of me. I now understand the importance of taking my phone with me when I go to the toilet. There seems to be a fundamental flaw with this latch, the metal square where the handles go through cracked and then deformed. The one I replaced it with has a plastic square (which is either better or worse). I notice with the new latch the handle only needs to turn half as far to open the door, which seems better.
Thanks, managed to get into my bedroom after about an hour of fighting with the door. The mechanism inside broke and the latch was stuck in the locked position. Luckily, shimming my way through using cut up plastic packaging worked! For those struggling with the same problem, the key to opening the door (no pun intended) was relieving the tensions from the latch, by pulling on the door slightly (from the oposite side that the one the door opens towards). Thanks again!
Thank you..this worked for me ☺️we realized our living and kitchen area was jammed around 5 in the morning..being a Sunday I had no hopes of getting help..I tried and tried but finally succeeded..proud of myself never thought it'll work
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Okay… last night at bedtime I discovered the door would not open! I was inside the room… tried for 20 minutes to loosen it up, took off hinge pins… nothing worked. I had to spend the night sleeping on the couch, wondering what to do.I watched 4 other door stuck videos… and none of them used this method or worked. They all think you can call This Old House to do it. So thanks to you I got the door to OPEN! Great tips! I was about to try a thinner plastic, so I see there is whole art to jimmying the card around the corner… and then jimmying it down to move the latch. THANKS!
Omg it actually works!!! I used a credit card...you've got to be really tough with it ans jiggle it around a lot. Omg I'm so grateful!! Thanks a million!!
Omg, this just saved us (and our night sleep). No doorhandles yet, wind blew, door slammed, pretty much nothing but a bed in our room. Used cardboard packaging and it worked. Crazy.
This helped me today! Though we didn't have standard door shims handy, tried cutting out pieces from different stuff (like diary covers, phone screen protectors, etc.) with varying thickness. One of them finally worked. Thanks a lot!
Thank you very much my man. I cut off a piece of thin plastic from the back page of an A4 sleeve binder. Worked a treat as the credit card was too thick for the door gap.
We’re on state of emergency and we got flashflood warning you just saved my life from being stucked inside our apartment (basement) alone. I’m new to my place so I don’t really know if we get flood in here and I have bad anxiet.
Thanks for this helpful video. Our bub’s room got looked by itself and we couldn’t figure out how to open it until we watched your video. Really helpful ❤
Thanks so much! I accidentally locked myself in the garage with no keys or cards, but I managed to find a binder divider that worked just as well. Bless!
Last time this happened I had to take the whole knob off the door. A 20-30 minute job. This time I used a book cover and the door was open in ten seconds. Thanks so much!
thank you so much for this video. my granddad locked himself out of his bedroom at 4 in the am . its got no screws on the outside just like the one you pictured. i watched ur video, found a piece of hard plastic (that i just found the day before & was going to throw out, dont know where i had it from, but said no, if i throw it out, ill need it...isnt that weird?!) so i tried the shimming it thru the door liked you showed & a couple of tries & it WORKED!!!!! you dont know the relief for both of us!!! i would have had to call a locksmith, etc..i was going to try to take the hinges off ...the door has been in about 60 yrs or so & the hinge screw looked really hard in so i dont think id be able to remove those. so i taped over the 'inny' & "outy" parts where i got in & hopefully, he wont do that again until i can get new doorknobs WITHOUT locks on it. bathroom too! so thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
We are in Australia and the kind of doors we have here in apartments, I wasn't thinking it will work but it did work ... thanks so much for saving my $250 to locksmith 🙏👍
THANK YOU!!!!! The only vid that helped!!! All my cards were inside the locked room but I had a hard-ish plastic paper. The other vids didn’t work cuz the paper was thinner than a card, so every time I tried to push it downward it bent! Jiggling the plastic paper where lock was worked like a charm from the first try!! Thank you thank you thank yoooooooooooooooou 😭 It was too late to call a locksmith and they would have charged us an extra fees and I neeeeeeeeeded to get in the room!!! My phone and laptop were inside! Thank god the iPad was outside! That’s how I saw your video 😭😭
Not always that easy if the shim gets stuck at the metal latch plate on the door jamb. I used two shims, one soft cut from a PE bottle and one strong from a piece of 0.4 mm steel sheet. About 3 cm wide and 10 cm long. I used the hard shim to get the soft shim past the obstacle while wiggling the door back and forth. It finally worked after a few minutes.
You saved my life twice. Now my dog locked himself inside, along with my phone. I knew I did it once but it wasnt working haha Just needed a refresher, oufff
my bathroom door's handle is loose and faulty and got locked from the inside this morning right before I left for work and I was stressing all day over whether to bring in a locksmith or something after work was done, but then saw the credit card hack in this and tried it and yeah it took a couple tries but IT WORKED I know this video is from 3 years ago but thank you sooo much!
THANKS To YOU 👏👏 at 12:58am me and my husband have been trying to open our door that just got jammed locked with a that same door handle for a whole hour our 3yr old son was stuck in there fast asleep and god I shed a tear cause the damage would of costed money 😪 and with your video helped so much withing 5min with a credit card it opened 👏👏👏👏 thank yooouuu !!!!!!!!!
The credit card worked! I had the correct tool but it didn't work. A laminated driver's license did not work, but a credit card did. It helped to picture the angle like you showed in the video. That was a case where a picture is worth 1000 words. Well done!

Hello i just wanna say on the process of trying to sneak out of my house for new years i got locked in the downstairs bathroom bc the door knob was gone where the door could only be opened from the outside but i cant wake my parents for help bc i was sneaking out . Filled with panic and anxiety i tried calling my sister for helped but shes already out for the new years and my other sister was asleep . However my bf who was waiting outside my house to pick me up sent this video and i tried it w an old card i had in my bag . It WORKED!!!!!! . Saved and out for the new years yay 🎉😉
I got a question though.. what happens if you are on the other side of the door (the door without the angled latch) if you know what I mean.. how would you open the door then..?
My front door knob was the one that wasn't working, so I was in quite a pickle. I had to crawl out my kitchen window to get to the other side of my door, but I was able to shimmy it open with the card method on account of lacking proper shim-like materials! Thankfully I had a points card I wasn't using anymore as it was damaged a bit ^^;;; thank you for sharing in any case, what a life saver!
omg thankyou so much it’s 12am and i could not get into my bedroom and my door handle on the inside of my room was loose and broken! I cut off a piece from my plastic folder and wiggled it where the latch is on the side AND IT OPENED THANKYOU!!!!
I’m stuck in my bedroom. I’m going to have to wait until someone wakes up and can do this from the other side, or maybe squeeze a screwdriver under the door. Oh well, at least it’s Sunday! Thank you so much for this! Wish me luck 🍀🤞 5 minutes later: Dang! It worked on the second try and I’m freeee! Woohoo 🥳 Thanks again, this is great to know!
Thank you! My organ donor card is broken but my door now it's fixed 😅 it saved me money on calling someone to fix it 🙏 thank you so much for this video!
I had an extremely stubborn door. I had to put force against the door so the top part would give a bit, then use that space to jam a gift card I had, then force slide it down towards the catch. With enough tugging, it opened the latch. Had to use some pliers to help with sliding it down tho. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VIDEO!!!
Thnx this helped, I got locked out of my bathroom until I put some card in there per instructions, so thnx to you I didn't needa break the door or call a lock Smith
The best way to do this is on a door in which the beveled side of the latch is facing towards you is to insert the card or piece of mica above it, tilt the part your holding downwards about 60 degrees, pull outwards on the handle(So as to relieve pressure on the latch), and while maintaining the pull, slide the shim down until it clears the latch.
Thank you for this - very insightful. I have come across a bit of an issue in that the door I need to "unstick" has the rounded lock mechanism the other way around. In other words, I am trying to shimmy open faced with the flat edge - not the rounded edge. Is there any way to get around this? Thanks!
Oh thank you lord for this video. I took the knobs out but nothing works. But this video save 1 hour of the whole entire process. Now I hv to put the knobs back
Unfortunately the shims don’t work if the door has an edge. In other words if the is a right angle before you get to the lock part that’s stuck then the shims don’t seem to bend around enough. I can see how they work straight on… having a nightmare with it
Thank you so much for this great hack, My children spoil the handle inside the room and locked us in the sitting room, we were sleeping on the floor in the sitting room,I couldn't sleep ,I decided to check on TH-cam, I saw your video and I tried it and it worked 😀, we are now sleeping on the bed in the room 😅😅😅. Thanks
This shit actually worked. I used a card a bit thinner than a credit card, so it slid in easier. But I got my front door open in a few seconds after forgetting my keys in the house.
Any advice for if the only side you have access to is the inside bit? The door that's stuck for me is a small door that's in my bedroom which I assume leads to a storage space or something
Woke up, Friday the 13th. Couldn’t get into my bathroom to get ready for work. I tried everything imaginable. Then found your video. You changed the direction of my day. Thank you!
You didn't try everything otherwise you'd have kicked the door down first
Thank you sir. I destroyed my credit card, but it was worth it
I used my platin black Amex for billionaires. Broke immediately. Made in China
@Mental Vigilist guys just found a legend right here yea “it was worth it” to find the Legend LoL 😂
@@ZipPeZapp ddhuuu what you are going on is your new name is the name of the
I nearly died 🤪
Sometimes destroying credit cards has other benefits too...
Omg!! It works!
I was trying everything, but couldn't open the door.
I found your video and followed your tip and the door opened like magic!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Champion! A shim made from a strip of thin, flexible but strong clear plastic packaging got me inside the room in 10 mins. You’re a star.
2 years later and this still works 😭 i just unlocked my door in 2 freaking minutes with this video 😭😭😭😭😭 thank u god bless u
You’re a legend mate!
Made a shim out of an old portfolio I had from 20 years ago and it worked. Thanks so much!

You’re welcome 👍
Thank you very much my man.

You tryna rpe somebody?
I'm clicking Like even before trying this. Lock is jammed

I did it !!! Thank you so much otherwise I would be sleep at sofa !
Thank you !!!!
This saved us a call to the fire department when my son got himself stuck in the bathroom. THANK YOU!

Love TH-cam😅 everything and anything(k) thanks guys
Thank you, just opened mine
how does it work when the latch's curved side is on the wrong side? a lot of our locks have the flat side of the latch where you'd slide a shim....
Ahh why hasn’t someone answered your question haha I really would need that right now
@@meli3483 f someone answer this man
thank u it worked with some random club card.. but the lock is howver nomore usable in my case
It works. Thank you for this 👍
