Default White door clip

I think most of us have had a door that will not open due to the white clip being out of line on the threaded bar.

It is always closed around the thread.
1

We want to open it so we can open the door then adjust the clip to work all the time.
2

With the lock inside there is not much room to flip this clip open, today i tried a trick with a 5p coin & a 1p coin.

Imagine the clip is locked round the bar inside the door as here below.
3

Armed with the coins 5p or 1p which ever you have.
4

Use either coin and insert it into the clip from the rear.
5

Now push the coin forward as far as you can, it will pop open the clip tried it a few times and worked every time.

Here is a little video using the coin the the bench.
