Can't open outdoor kitchen door on 351RSQS

Closed the door and now can not get open. Lock unlocked an door moves 1/2" plus - then stopped by latch. Is there a way to get in without drilling out lock to fix?

Is the trailer pretty close to level when trying to open, if not the opening may rack somewhat like a house settling and won't open. Try adjusting the levelers while trying to open

I think the lock cylinder is rotating or the lever on the back is about to come off. jmo

This started in Arizona. Traveled back to Wisconsin with multiple attempts to open without success. Looking for how to access lock without drilling out. Any ideas?

If turning the key while trying to open doesn't work then perhaps the screw loosened and the arm is falling free. If that is the case you may be able to slide something in and push the arm to the side..

Good Luck.

Drilled out lock. Found that spring had broke and lock would not lift out of catch. Replacing door latch when new one arrives.
