    As in the subject, the key rotates over and over, but does not move the latch. Similarly, from the inside you can turn the knob, but it does not catch the latch. Apparently something inside got loose and fell off. It is a summer house in which we now enter the window in an emergency. How to open this lock so as not to destroy the door? After disassembly, I would replace it with an identical one after the old holes. Has anyone had a similar problem and managed it? I don't want to destroy the door.

    Drill or eraser. :)

    Two bolts moving the latch were broken. :)

    Or maybe you are just able to damage this part of the lock where the latch enters?
    How is the approach you will cut with flex,
    Then you open the door and disassemble the lock normally.

    It is best, as a friend above, try to cut the part where the gate valve enters.

    But then I won't be able to mount a new one in the same place.

    Sure you will be able to, because the new one is a whole set.

    I would probably cut it like that

    And new comes with new, I do not know if he writes well, but a staple. ")

    I suggest you drill a hole in the element where the gate valve enters (from the front of the gate valve) maybe you can pull the gate through the hole.
    Have you tried removing the closing knob from the inside?

    But the door opens, looking at the drawing, to us or inside the drawing?

    I haven't been there yet, I will try to pull the knob, but I don't know if I will move the latch

    With an angle grinder, I would cut off the tongue entering the staple.

    If you have an older door, all you need to do is knock the axle out of the hinges, then you will be able to pull the door the other way and unscrew the lock normally

    "you will knock out the hinges on the axle" - what exactly is it about? does it mean that they should be removed from the hinges from the inside even though they are closed on the latch?

    You do not remove from the hinges, because after breaking the axle they no longer exist. This process is reversible.
    It's best if someone helps you and pushes the door slightly from the other side.
    Condition - no security locks. These are the pins in the door leaf that go into the openings in the door frame when closing.

    I haven't used an angle grinder yet, I wonder if it can't drill through the latch case and then after drilling a few holes in the case, try to pull the latch out? I have a drill and sometimes I use it :) although I would have to buy a metal drill bit. Is a 510 W power drill good for metal like this case? what diameter drill bit would be most appropriate here?

    The power of the drill is not very big, but it will manage. It's best to buy a set of drills from thin 1.2 mm to e.g. 10mm. firstly drill several holes e.g. ?5 close to each other, and then drill them with e.g. ?8 drill until a larger hole is created

    Or maybe take a picture of this door from the inside and show it in the forum. Perhaps there is another way to get to this lock.

    A little bit more and someone will propose dynamite. After all, it's just a latch, not Fort Knox. If it does not go to open from any side, then probably the spring (red arrow) has broken and this vibration dropped, which means that the bolt should be able to move freely. Just for information, the castle was opening turning in which direction?

    I suggest "attacking" this tab on the back of the zipper (blue arrow), slightly bend the zipper and undo the bolt with a hook.
