CALL FOR IMMEDIATE HELPHow Our Broken Key Removal & Key Extraction Works
Simple, transparent process — we keep you informed every step of the way.
Ring us and let us know where the key has broken — flush, partially protruding, or pushed deep inside. This helps us prepare the right extraction kit.
Don't try to pull the fragment out with improvised tools — it often pushes it deeper.
Your locksmith uses a professional broken key extractor that grips the fragment's cut edge and draws it out cleanly.
Once the fragment is out, we inspect the lock for any internal damage.
If the cylinder has been damaged, we can replace it on the spot with new keys supplied.

FAQs — Broken Key Removal & Key Extraction
Straight answers to the questions we hear most often.
It's one of our quicker jobs and priced accordingly. Ring us with the details and we'll give you a fixed price over the phone before anyone comes out. No call-out fees on top.
It happens — just tell us what you've tried and how far the fragment appears to be inside the lock. DIY attempts sometimes push the piece deeper, which can make extraction harder, but in most cases it's still achievable with the right tools.
If you have the intact half of the broken key, we can cut a replacement from it in many cases. If not, we can decode the cylinder to produce a new key from scratch. Let us know when you call and we'll confirm what's possible.
Only if the lock is damaged. In most cases, once the fragment is out and we've confirmed the cylinder is in good condition, you just need a new key. We'll only recommend a cylinder replacement if there's a genuine reason for it.
Same-day service is available across most of the UK. If it's an urgent situation — for example, you're locked out because of the broken key — we treat it as an emergency call-out and dispatch as quickly as possible.
