Mine has a little 'snick' you can lift on the way out if you haven't got
your keys in your pocket.

That is fine, provided you always remember. :-(

Once got caught out by the door on a flat I was living in. It
opened outwards and had a rim latch. Locked out, the only
equipment I had was in my Honda C50 tool roll.In the end I
jammed in a spanner handle to open the gap, and a screwdriver,
which happened to have a broken blade, had a sharp enough point
to inch the bolt backwards.
