Replacing door handle

I am trying to replace a door handle on a exit door that was jammed. I was unable to open the door before taking it off. The latch is to large to fit out the hole, so can't be pulled out. On the outside is glass/screen door, which is locked, so I can not access the other side. Can the latch just be cut, then pulled out? submitted by /u/hellswaters [link] [comments]
