Would I not be able to get into the shop to travel back in time to lock the door because I'm already there locking the door?

that would cause a rift in the space / time continueum, resulting in the end of all existance as we know it, of course that's the worse case scenario

The time travel Leprechaun unlocks the door at 12:59.

You will be left in the shop till any one else or you once again (go back and) open it.
I think it can be correct.
The other thing is that when you have locked at 12:58 then you will be out side and you can't go inside. You can go inside only if you opened it again.
I think it may be also correct.
Hope I have convinced you.

If it is your shop...you should have the key so you will simply unlock a door that should have been locked to begin with : )

The point is moot. It's impossible to travel backward in time. You can only travel forward in time at different rates due to your velocity as related to the speed of light.
This, then, isn't a physics question, it is a philosophy question.

you would find yourself locking the door as you tried to enter your shop.
new time line from there.

What would happen? You'd prove why time travel into the past is not possible.

You would end up with a broken nose from walking into it.
Silly joke to play on yourself.

You must be out of your mind to do that
Then you deserve to be locked up

You'd be inside out.
