Snapped Key? Stop Before You Make It Worse

Locksmith removing a broken key from a lock
Special extractor tools slide alongside the broken key to hook it out.

Worn keys get thin, and eventually one snaps off inside the lock. The natural reaction is to dig at it with tweezers or a paperclip, which usually pushes the piece deeper and can damage the pins. Leave it be and call All Key Services Locksmith.

Where We Extract Keys From

  • House front and back doors
  • Deadbolts and padlocks
  • Business and storefront locks
  • Car doors and trunks
  • Car ignitions
  • Mailboxes and cabinets

Then We Fix the Cause

Once the piece is out, we can cut a new key, often by code or from the broken pieces, so you're not left with another worn key that's ready to break. If the lock was damaged, we'll repair or rekey it.

Quick Tip

If part of the key is sticking out, don't push it in to "try one more time." Pull it straight out with needle-nose pliers if you can grip it. If not, call us.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you make a new key from the broken pieces?

Often, yes. We can decode the pieces or the lock and cut a fresh key to the original specs.

Will the lock still work after extraction?

Usually. If it was damaged, we can repair, rekey or replace it on the same visit.
