Default Cut the door off/open!?

Hi all,

Seems daft to even think it, but it popped into my mind when i spent an hour tyring to open the rear door of the focus, and then the local garage got no where!

Its the other halfs car, and i know she needs really to pop to a ford garage incase there is a sneaky trick to remove/break/force the lock from inside/out, but with the door closed you can't obviously get to the bolts that hold it in position - arse!

Yes the cable and handle work and are connected (the door card if off..) - its definately something with the lock itself thats fubard.

Any ideas guys, as much fun as it would be cutting it open with a 230mm grinder in the street i'd prefer not to have to!?

Cheers

Tom
