Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

you will struggle with a hand held screwdriver ispecially if it has reinforcing inside the upvc which most doors will do, unless you are screwing into the panel and not the frame, cordless drill will make light work of it0
