Default Locked out of garage

wrote:
I have a problem with my garage door lock. It is a conventional up and
over garage door.
However now when I unlock the handle the handle will not turn 90
degrees to the right as it normally does
for moving the bars behind the door. So my guess is the lock part
isn't working.
How can I fix this?


If it isnt turning, and oil sprayed into the keyhole doesnt work, then
it is new lock time usually.
£15 upwards, depending on which type of lock.

It is the only access into the garage. Should I drill out the lock part
of the handle to release the handle?


If no other access, then yes.
Alan.
