Key broke in the lock? Don't do this
Don’t push the broken piece deeper or try to glue it, and don’t keep turning the lock. It can damage the lock and turn a quick extraction into a lock replacement. Call us and tell us where the key broke: a house door, a car door or the ignition. If the key snapped in your car, see our ignition repair and car key replacement pages.
• Prevention
Why keys break in locks
Most keys break for one of these reasons:
Old and worn
Years of use wear a key thin.
Forced or bent
A bent key, or one forced in a lock that’s sticking.
Poorly cut copy
A poorly cut copy can wear faster than the original.
If your key has been getting harder to turn, the lock or the key may need attention before it breaks.
