How to unlock this door?

I closed the door last night and somehow when I went to open the door this morning it’s locked. Might be jammed not sure??

I’ve got a bunch of the door knobs that haven’t been installed but none of the keys work (maybe stupud but thought worth a try!) I’ve also found this flat thing which I googled as I thought it could be an emergency key but doesn’t do anything. The set of keys that open the door are locked inside the room unfortunately! Any help would be hugely appreciated!!! Thank you !

Anderson Screen/Storm Door Handle

I have a new Anderson screen/storm door and something seems wrong with the handle. I’m pretty sure this occurred last fall when putting in the glass door. The handle isn’t sitting parallel to the ground - you only move the handle a little bit for it to open. It’s not a physical problem. The door still closes and opens but it just doesn’t feel right. It feels cheap and broken. I know it wasn’t like this when I bought it. Any ideas?

Here’s a video:

Pocket dpors- worth it or not?

Hi everyone! Anyone having issues with pocket doors, that are uncomfortably no-sound-proof? In what extent is the sound proofness there? I have a powder room where I wish to place a pocket door as the room is small and it opens up to a corridor/hallway. The contractor says that the pocket doors are not soundproof compared to a normal door. But as the hallway is narrow it becomes a safety issue (blocking path of travel) to have a swing door.
