Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about broken key extraction services

Can you extract a key without damaging my lock?

Yes, we use specialist extraction tools and techniques designed to remove broken keys without damaging the lock mechanism. Our experienced technicians have successfully extracted thousands of keys while preserving lock functionality.

What if the key is broken deep inside the lock?

Even if the key is broken deep inside the lock cylinder, we have specialized extraction tools that can reach and grip the broken key piece. In rare cases where extraction isn’t possible, we can replace the lock cylinder.

How long does key extraction usually take?

Most key extractions take 10-30 minutes depending on the lock type and how the key broke. Simple extractions from Yale locks may take just a few minutes, while complex extractions from high-security locks may take longer.

Can you make new keys after extracting the broken one?

Yes, we can cut new keys on-site using the extracted key pieces or by reading the lock code. We carry key cutting equipment and blanks for most common lock types, so you’ll have working keys immediately.

What should I do if my key breaks in the lock?

Don’t try to extract it yourself as this can push the key deeper or damage the lock. Avoid using pliers, tweezers, or glue. Call our emergency service immediately for professional extraction using the right tools.

Do you provide emergency key extraction services?

Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency key extraction services across London. If you’re locked out due to a broken key, we can respond within 15-30 minutes to get you back in quickly and safely.
