How to open the old-fashioned latch from the outside

The old latch can be opened from the outside, as shown below:

1. Install a bolt on the door near the upper door frame; The right door is equipped with a padlock at the outer door frame. Open the bolt to come out from the inside, and open the lock to come in from the outside.

2. Use hard cards, such as bank cards and shopping cards.

Insert the long side of the card between the door frame and the lock, and insert the card into the door at the top of the lock tongue. Insert the card obliquely downward behind the locking tongue. Pull the card slowly and forcefully and turn the door handle. With luck, the card just got stuck between the bolt and the door frame. Pull outward to make the bolt completely separate from the door frame. As long as you can catch the door between the latch and the door frame, the door will be opened.

Installation of the door begins:

The process of door installation: measurement and cutting → door frame installation → door leaf installation → door sideline assembly. Cut the door opening according to the original structural size reserved by the wall for the door.
