Extraction is only part of the assessment

Once a fragment is removed, the cylinder and remaining key operation need checking. A worn key or damaged lock may have contributed to the break, so simply copying a damaged piece may not address the cause. Avoid pushing the fragment farther in or adding glue. Discuss repair or replacement if normal operation cannot be restored reliably.

The assessment for snapped key extraction

After extraction, the cylinder and key operation should be checked. A worn or damaged lock may need repair or replacement.

Information to prepare

Avoid glue, improvised tools or forcing another key into the cylinder. Keep any broken key pieces and tell us whether the door is secure.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

A few things
you might ask.

Still have a question?
We’re a phone call away.

Can the existing lock be kept?+

Sometimes, if it remains sound after extraction. The cylinder condition determines whether replacement is needed.

What should I keep and report after a key snaps?+

Tell us whether the door is open, locked shut or unable to secure. A fragment in the cylinder and a failed mechanism can require different follow-up work.
