Speaking as someone who's done it (kicked in doors) I'm a bit confused; the doors I've had luck with had shallowly set locks but I knew nothing about their hinge screws, and did not kick in that side of the door, but the other, so how does one go about kicking in a door with short screws (is it done from the hinge side)? I'd love video links, if you could, thanks.
