The invention relates to a door (20) for an aircraft engine nacelle (6), comprising an opening leaf (22), locking means (32, 36) with which the opening leaf may be locked in the closed position, as well as means (28) for setting the opening leaf (22) into motion with which the latter may be displaced from the closed position to the open position. According to the invention, said locking means have a mechanical fuse (50) intended to break under the effect of a force exerted by the opening leaf (22) and resulting from an opening gas pressure being applied on the opening leaf, with a value greater than or equal to a predetermined value and causing displacement of the opening leaf from the closed position to the open position after breakage of the mechanical fuse (50).
A door (20) for an aircraft engine nacelle (6), said door comprising an opening leaf (22) designed so as to be able to occupy a closed position and an open position, said door comprising locking means (32, 36) with which the opening leaf may be locked in the closed position, as well as means (28) for setting the opening leaf (22) into motion with which the latter may be moved from the closed position towards the open position when the locking means (32, 36) are disabled,
