The key opens what is basically a deadbolt, and the only actual latch for the door.
The "knob" isn't so much a knob, but a stationary/fixed handle for pulling the door.

Everybody's jokin now The clock's run out, time's up, over - BLAOW!
I think you'd be in gas-station-keyring territory to do the job reliably. How about a hubcap?

When it finally happens "HA, I've been waiting 49 years for this exact situation! they all said I crazy." Old man shouts at sky "I told you Grettle that I'd have a use for that hole someday!!!"
