Hi,
I moved into this house fairly recently, and I do not know the brand or company who installed the storm door. Suddenly one day it just shut closed and would not open no matter what. I tried every possible thing and then finally decided to cut it open to see if there was a latch release that I can pry open. I cut it open (rather ugly) and now I'm not sure what to do. Any ideas would be really helpful.
Thanks!

Below is the photo.
To begin with, it is broken? The inner edge of the handle is so symmetrical and clean that it's hard to think it's broken off from the rest of the mechanism.
If it's broken, can it be fixed by superglue or something?
If I have to replace the entire locking mechanism, is it complicated?
