i have a safetey gate in my loo,it has dropped behind the door,now i cant get in,i dont want to smash the door in as im moving in a few weeks,anyone got any ideas please:(

take the door off it's hinges??

If you can open it part way would a small child be able to squeeze through!

Do you have the use of another toilet in the house??

If not, don't have a drink whilst your thinking...;)

can you get the door open at all ... this happened to me with a drawer a couple of months ago :O

I'd spilled something into it so I emptied it, cleaned it out and tipped it against the wall to dry out. Whe I came back the thing had fallen over behind the door .. grrrrrrr!

I managed to open the door a couple of inches and got a hockey stick under the edge and lifted it up until i could tip it back against the wall. It took ages and a lot of swearing and sweating but managed it in the end.

A safety gate might be easier to do that with as it's rails and spaces!

Best of luck.

If you can get any gap in the doorway then all sorts of fishing adventures can commence.

If you can't get any space at all then try and get a good strong bloke to wedge himself on the floor and push with his legs at the bottom of the door and hopefully the gate may bend/break before the door does.
Even using bits of wood to allow a car jack to be used to force the bottom of the door can be considered.

Is there no bathroom window that can be used or broken?

thanks for your help,its sorted now,took the saftey gate out of loo now:blush:

Please share withus. How did you do it?
