"There was an emergency and power was temporarily cut to the card reader terminals, and now none of them work. We need to get to the server room to reboot the access control server, but it's behind a card-only door."
"How much do we want to get in?"
"Very much."
"Stand back."

And that's how I ended up busting down the server room's door.

The door doesn't lock anymore, so we've got that covered.
