I would have disabled the inner sensor temporarily by unscrewing the
terminal block output wire, but I had nothing that would turn the
deep-set screw.

So after using all that foil you wre still foiled in the end!

Didn't you think to plug the gap round the door with toilet
paper? I'm sure you could have scrounged some sticky tape (or
plaster!) to hold it in place when the door was opened!
