Bypassing lock files

Hi, I have an application that uses /dev/ttyS1 and creates a lock file in /var/lock ... however I need to inject extra data into /dev/ttyS1 via a bash script ... How would I go about "bypassing" the lock file in order for this script to inject the data? Any pointers? Thank you Danny
