Why Broken Keys Happen & Why You Need a Professional

Keys can snap inside a lock for many reasons, including:

  • Worn or weakened keys
  • Old or misaligned locks
  • Cold weather contraction
  • Rust, dirt, or internal debris
  • Forcing a key to turn

Trying to remove the broken piece yourself often pushes it deeper, damages the lock pins, or bends the internal components. A damaged lock can become unusable — resulting in a more expensive repair or full replacement.

Calling a professional locksmith ensures:

✔ Safe removal without damage
✔ Lock remains functional
✔ No drilling or unnecessary replacement
✔ Quick access restored
✔ Affordable, clean workmanship

Broken key extraction is fast, precise, and typically completed in minutes with the right tools.
