Open lock without a key

[holyroberts]

Help!

Can I open this lock without a key? My wife took the key to work and my dogs are locked inside.

I don't know.

But I want to know why there is a crack in your window

Bloody greyhounds jumping at it!!!!

Now that the three screws have been removed the lock should come away from the door. Run around the edge of it with a knife as it looks like it would be stuck with paint then smack it with a hammer....

It comes off the door but won't pull out of the frame.

I think the forend of the lock wraps round the edge of the door and is retained with two screws.

The wife made it home, so thanks anyway. It did have screws round the edge as well.

Thanks
