In some situations, a lock repair might not be possible. In such cases, a lock replacement would be necessary. With that said, some locks needed to be broken before a lock replacement could be installed. To break a lock, you’ll have several options and should choose the safest one. Common options include (depending on the type of front door lock)
Torching or melting the lock
Prying open with a crowbar
Drilling the locking mechanism
Striking with a hammer
Freezing and smashing
