Police called to a rowdy house party were denied legitimate access to the house in Oswaldtwistle.
Blackburn magistrates heard an officer had her head trapped in the door when people inside slammed it shut.
Christian Nile Lewis, 21, of Brown Birks Road, Accrington, Jacob Ormerod, 21, of Woodley Avenue, Accrington, and Liam George Parker, 26, of Hornby Street, Oswaldtwistle, all pleaded guilty to assaulting Police Sergeant Jill Maltman. Ormerod also pleaded guilty to assaulting PC David Taylor.
They were all ordered to do 140 hours unpaid work and pay £100 compensation to PS Maltman and £145 costs. Ormerod was also ordered to pay £50 compensation. Gareth Price, defending, said it wasn’t their intention to injure the officer.
