The door is manual chain operated. To compress the springs, I have to pull a little harder on the chain that operates the door. Then there is a notched holder that one of the chain links slides into.
My idea of a "prop" of some kind was to be able to know you had clearance if it was in place. With this chain-pull door, how about this:
Pull till you know it's clear, then mark the link that has to be pulled down to the top of that chain stop. The one above the one that bears on the slot from the bottom. Use paint, tape, the like. And, not that you won't after this experience, look for that link every time.
