3AM Bag o’ Tricks:

1) Fill a dorm garbage can with water. Lean can against door with lip of edge firmly wedged under the door knob.

2) Push against the very bottom of a door (that opens inward) in as hard as you can. As you do this, the gap between the wood and the metal door-jamb will widen significantly. Stack as many pennies as possible in this gap and release your pressure on the door. Repeat this process for the top of the door (above the knob).

3) Buy some crazy glue (Not the pen applicator type). Lop the top off the mini-bottle and squeeze the glue into any lock cylinder as far as it will go. “1001 uses; and now, 1002.”

4) Buy a roll of aluminium foil. Unroll/thread a long sheet under their door. Rip the power cord off an appliance and separate the two wires. Attach one to the aluminium foil and tape the other to the lock cylinder. Plug it in and leave.
