It happens to everyone at one point or another. You locked the door and left your key inside or someone else locked the door without warning you about it! Now, your stuck outside and that's never fun, especially when it's cold and windy outside! This happened to my sister recently and after her experience, it's important to call up a Dedham Locksmith instead of taking it into your own hands like she did...
My sister lives far out in Indiana and when she got home from work one day to find that she was locked out of the house, she decided it would be easier to try and unlock the door herself rather than drive across the bridge to Kentucky where her fiancee was working to get a key. She was basically standing outside of her own house, trying to break in! From what she told me, she tried everything. A credit card which she snapped in half, a bobby pin which just didn't work and after that she got tired. She called her fiancee and just her luck, he didn't answer!
I don't know if it was frustration, stupidity or just plain desperation but apparently, she thought if she furiously twisted the knob back and forth and jiggled it enough, the door would open up! I can just picture her standing there, using all of her might to magically unlock the door! She swears she did it for 20 minutes but I'm sure she's exaggerating. However long it took, she didn't get the results she was looking for - she ripped the door knob right off of the door!
My sister is not the brightest crown in the box but honestly, this could happen to any one of us! If it happens to you, don't try to rip the door knob off like she did. It caused a lot more trouble for them since they had to completely replace the knob. If you're in a pickle and need someone to help you get in a locked door, call a locksmith. They can get your door unlocked the easy way!
