Robbo is correct. You need a key to turn the lock barrel slightly and then you undo the small grub screw holding the barrel into the door. The barrel will then slide out as the tumblers are flush with the barrel.
It certainly is possible to pick locks and a GOOD locksmith can do this. Bad ones will just drill them out.
I hesitate to say this but there are guides to lock picking out there on t'Internet...
