Both annoying and inconvenient, getting broken keys stuck inside of locks is more common than you might think. Typically, this kind of trouble manifests when someone is rushing. However, they can also transpire when your keys are put through far too much wear and tear, or when there’s an issue with the locks themselves. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding the lock and what type it is, a broken key is something that needs rectifying at the first given chance.

Quick actions are required here for a plethora of reasons. If your key was broken within the lock prior to the door being shut, locking the door will not be possible. This shall leave your premises far more vulnerable to burglary. Should the key break after the door has been shut, it’s likely that you won’t be able to open it again until repairs are completed, potentially leaving you stranded outside. Additionally, the broken key can lead to the lock being damaged too.

If a portion of the broken key is sticking out, there’s a good chance that you can remove it yourself. You might be able to pinch it with your fingers and get it out. If there’s only a tiny part protruding, you could end up having to use some pliers. That’s assuming you can gain access to some though. Even if you believe that you can extract the key, you’re generally much better off calling in the locksmith to do things properly, especially if you discover that the lock is damaged in some way.
