You have as much right as she does. You can get a lock smith, and get the door open. Call a lawyer first. Call me with any questions at 978-749-3606.

She does not have the right to lock you out of th house. Call an attorney before getting a lock smith to open the door.

I am assuming she has not gotten a protective order against you for abuse. If not, that may be her next act, so you need to contact an attorney.
