Right well basicly the door at the front the wheels came off so I can't single handly open that door, and the keys are on the other side of the door so I can't open the other door!

If you are waiting for an NSC member to pop round, you may be waiting a long time. Try calling Jerry or a friend, neighbour, fire brigade.. :thumbsup:

A similar thing happened to the A-Team once. It took them less than an hour to fashion an impromptu tank type vehicle out of the various things that typically litter any residential garage, before bursting out much to the chagrin of the baddies.

You may not have any baddies to contend with here, but I'd suggest a similar approach.

Is the car in the garage? If so, drive it through the door like Bodie & Doyle in the Professionals! If not, start pathetically banging on the door and calling for help in the vain hope a neighbour or passerby might hear you.

Not a chance! Cars outside and the only neighbour that can possibly help is an 80 year old woman! Who can't hear anything!

Can you lift the door up at all? Of so get it up enough that you could get an arm under and wedge something there.
Then there should be a screw holding the lock cylinder in place, undo this and push lock out. Reach under door pick up lock and keys.

Well I can try but I lift one end up and the other end comes crashing down on me because it has no wheels holding it in place, and its bloody heavy

Alas somewhat bizarrely it appears the OP has become stuck in an outbuilding that doesn't have plenty of sheet metal and welding equipment in.
