How Our Broken Key Extraction Service Works

Getting broken keys out is simple with our locksmith services. Here is how a broken key extraction service call works.

Call us with your car or lock and your location in the Indianapolis area
Our mobile locksmith units reach you with the tools to extract the broken piece
We assess the lock, then extract the broken part without damage to the inner mechanism
We cut a working key on the spot, so you can use your car or home today

There is no need to force the lock or push the broken keys deeper. Our expert locksmiths keep your lock working.

Our locksmith uses specialized extractor tools to pull out broken key fragments. Thin steel hook picks slide past the pins and catch the teeth of the key. A jigsaw blade can also hook the cuts of a broken key for extraction.

We apply lubrication to reduce friction and ease the extraction process. If the broken key has a protruding edge, needle-nose pliers can be effective. These pro tools remove the piece without harm, while DIY extraction attempts often worsen the situation.

Why Keys Break in a Lock

Broken keys happen for a variety of reasons. Keys fail for several reasons, and a worn key is the most common one. A worn key gets thin from daily wear and tear, and one hard turn snaps it inside the lock.

A worn car key, a cold morning, jamming, or a stiff lock can all make keys break inside the lock. That is the usual way a key breaks. When a key breaks, the broken part stays inside, and the lock will not turn.

Cheap key materials can lead to breakage, and inserting a key incorrectly can cause it to break. Winter conditions increase the likelihood of a key snapping. If the broken fragments stay intact, the cuts can sometimes be used to create a duplicate.

Do not pull the broken piece with pliers or push it deeper. That can damage the inner mechanism, leaving damage behind. In most cases our expert locksmiths handle it and extract the part without harm, leaving the lock intact.

After we extract broken keys, we test the lock. When needed, we recommend a rekey, lock repair, or a new lock so a worn key does not break inside again.
