Why remove the handles? I would try to drill through the Euro barrel at

Michael,
Yes, that seems to be an option - if I can figure out what level the retaining screw is.
Does the key keep turning from both sides of the door?
Yes. The inside has a flat knob rather than a key+keyhole, but yes, they both turn freely, with no effect, on each side.
These people are helpful and might know the best way to approach the

Many thanks for the input. It looks like one option would be to take the pins out of the hinges and try removing the door. I might try this when I get back home, weather permitting.
