Do you know why it was difficult to close before it got stuck? Was
the bolts holding the door on to the frame come lose or out of
adjustment? Will the latching mechanism unlock the door so it can
be opened, even though ti appears stuck? Have you tried a long bar
to push the door back towards the frame and at the same time using
a strong shoulder or sledge hammer (not recommended) to push
open the door? From the inside, try to pry up on the door to see if it
moves. Use a steel flat nosed pry bar to place a lot of weight on the
door itself to see if it will at least move up and down, or even back
towards the frame and open the door. Also have you been in a
collision so the frame is possibly bent? Something came lose and is
now jammed in tight. Perhaps the locking mechanism will not
release due to the miss adjustment. Worse case would be to find a
used door in a pick your parts yard and yank out the door and
replace it.
