So my last resort was to tell my sons to kick the damn door open with whatever they had..........Son R tried with his heavy build body strength but no result and son H...the lanky one to my surprise gave one big kick with his long thin legs and the door flung open to my delight......look at these pics I took this morning.....
With all these tools on hand....still could not be a pickdoor thief and the result we got is a broken hammer head after 2 hours of prying.......!
The damaged door.....after kicking it open......guess we had to change a new door.......and a better lock after this.....
Hope to get a doorlock like this.........
or even better if I can afford this..................
So we had learnt our lessons here....always get your doorlock repaired before you were lock out of your room for good......in the middle of the night.

My human mum accidentally locked the door to her MIL's room once. Fortunately, it was in the evening and she managed to look for a locksmith from the yellow pages. But I guess it would cost a bomb if you did a midnite call (or maybe locksmith fast asleep and don't want to come)
Hi Jasmine, I looked at your first lock, I think it can be opened with a credit card...slip it in and it should push the lock back. But not the dead bolt.
I remember once in KL, was in a friend's office we heard cries for help coming from the bathroom.
One of the ladies got locked in, locked had jammed.
Everyone tried but couldn't get it opened, so my friend asked me kicked it down.
Telling her to stand wayyyy back and turn her face to the wall, I then kicked it down, ha ha.
That dead bolt lock is very good, Jasmine. Ours is a deadbolt. As well with a special Jimmy proof steel block outside between the lock and door...thus nobody can use a jimmy or large screwdriver to break the lock. Lee.
When I saw the pix of all the tools and the broken door, I thought a burglar has broken into your house, haha!
Thanks for the tip. With regards to door lock.
