At this point I'd just stand back and kick the damm thing in.
But then you have the door open and no need to use a power tool.
Especially one as cool as a sawzall.

thanks for all your help dicks. clearly i had tried using a flathead,
but as it turns out, the mechanism was broken. by using two paitrs of
magnetic pliers i was able to jimmy it out enough. it was an old ass
lock and a two man job. thanks for all your support and outrage
"thanks for all your help dicks"
I reviewed the thread and couldn't find one poster named "dick", never
mind multiple "dicks". To whom were you passing along your thanks?
"clearly i had tried using a flathead"
Clearly? I just checked your previous posts and saw no mention of you
trying a flathead. On the other hand, I did see the mention of a hoe:
"i think my only hoe is to try..."
Clearly, a hoe is the wrong tool for this job.
