I've just arrived to my apartment in Finland and I can't get in

The keys worked on the front door but not my own door

There's no one here to ask so tell me, is there some weird knack to these locks or have I been given the wrong key

It's been a very long travel day and there's a high chance I'm being stupid

  2. I mean just put it in and turn it, may need force or pushing the door

  3. Probably need to give the door a little kick as you turn the key

  5. Does your key have bunch of numbers/letters on the other side? If so, its probably “emännänavain” that will open common spaces but not your own door

  6. The latch can get stuck a bit, turn the key all the way and try to bump in to the door a bit with your shoulder

  7. You probably have to give the door a little push/bump at the same time as you turn the key.

  8. You put the key in, you turn the key and you pull while the key is turned. If that does not work, it’s probably a wrong key.

  9. Push the key in, roll it to the right to the end and give the door a gentle push while the key is fully rolled.

    Keep slight pressure on the roll while giving the door a gentle push.

  11. If it worked in the front door, it also should work in your house in the same way. If not, maybe the key is bad or it is the key of another house.

  14. Lawddddghaaaad. Turn the lights off you can put it inside perfectly. Twist and turn and push it. The door.🥂

  15. Maybe you slided it out and turned something inside so it doesnt slot in correctly without wiggling the lock Back to default state
