If you had done one of two things: read the police report or listened to Gates' comments, you would already know the answer to this question, which in any case isn't really relevant. I'll indulge you and answer it anyway.

Gates didn't attempt to kick his own door in. The door was jammed, and Gates went in through the back and tried to open it from inside while his driver attempted to force it from the outside. After they got the door open, Gates reclosed the door and went inside, where he presumably lost complete control of himself and became a dribbling racist lunatic hell-bent on making a scene the next chance he got.
