#1 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.
