You issue a legal notice to the neighbor to remove the obstructions he had put in the common area by way of the door panels and also the electrical wiring which pose danger to passersby
If he is not complying with the demand you may either lodge a criminal complaint to the police for the threats to your life and property due to this additional construction and to direct him to remove the same or approach the local civic body/municipality with a complaint for this illegal construction alternately you can file a suit for mandatory injunction to direct him to remove the obstructions he created in the common area.

It is better to settle the issue(s) amicably as you are living and would be living as a "good" neighbour, wherein you may involve other neighbour(s) / respectable person(s) of localty.

However, when you are helpless in sorting out the dispute(s) issue legal notice through a local prudent lawyer and follow it in the appropriate jurisdictional court , which you have to seek professional opinion and guidance.
