The easiest way to get in is to call a locksmith.

For reasons I hope are obvious, this isn't a site where the members of the forum tell people how to break into places/things.

Members here are required to abide by the forum rules, or they jeopardize their member status. The forum rules are listed in the very first selection on your left. You are asking about destructive entry. I'd like to point out rule 19:

19. Discussion of topics deemed "advanced" are reserved for the advanced forums. This is for the public good. These topics include:
A) bypass of locks
B) safe lock manipulation
C) advanced pick tools
D) automotive bypass & picking
E) destructive entry

I hope you understand. Without knowing you, being able to verify you are the owner of the location/property in question, or verify your intentions are lawful, it would be unethical of us to provide that kind of information. Thus the reason (in part) for this rule.

To answer a common follow-up question people post in advance, yes, we know that destructive entry information is readily available from other sources on-line. However we cannot control the ethics or morality of what other people put out on the internet. We can only control our own.

I do have to add the disclaimer that I can't speak for the site. That authority falls strictly to the moderators. However I don't believe my personal interpretation of the reasons for this rule are too far off base.

A locksmith should be able to get you in without too much difficultly. Be aware that the more damage you do to the lock, the more difficult the job becomes. And usually, the more difficult the job, the more it costs.

Speaking as a moderator, itdbjd is right. No discussion of destructive entry is permitted.

With appropriate tools that 2 lever lock will open in seconds. Try calling a Locksmith, and you won't need to replace the lock or damage the door.
