Tried taking door handle off and turning with pliars etc but it just
seem to turn enough to open the latch.

What are my options? All I can see at the moment is kick the door
in....


If the hinges work loose the door may hang too far into the latch.
Try pushing the door toward the hinges and see if it'll open then.
