Opened my gate to my garage and received a PCN before I got back
to my car

My work car park garage is surrounded by yellow lines and permit
only parking bays. At 9AM when I start work, the gate to the
garage is locked. The keys to the garage gates are inside a
building. What would be the most practical way for me to open
the gate without getting a ticket in the process?
I recently got a PCN for stopping on a permit only bay for a few
minutes while I went into the work building to obtain the keys
to the garage. The appeal was rejected. I also read online that
stopping on a yellow line and hazard lights wouldn't be allowed
also. So I wonder what would be the most practical thing to do?
Being a key holder is not an option for me. I'm form England.

Have you paid the PCN? If not start a case in the civil parking
section as we may be able to help.
You are allowed time to get a key/fob etc to open a gate but
it's best to position the car as if you were driving in or
thereabouts.
