I've inherited a Graflex 4x5 press camera. I've done some research on this camera and I think it's very neat, however the front seems to be stuck. I've found the button on top of the camera to release the front door, but it does not release the door, frankly it does not even press down like I expected it to.
Also, the focusing knobs barley move (I've read that turning those may release the door).

Do you have any insight on other ways on how I might be able to open the front?
