Broken Key Extraction Can Address These Key Problems
A key snapped in a house door
A fragment left in the lock can keep you from turning the key or securing the door. Tell us which door is affected and whether the broken piece is still visible.
A car key broke in the door lock
If part of your key remains in the car door, avoid forcing the lock or pushing the fragment farther inside. Let us know where the break happened when you call.
A key broke in the ignition
A fragment in the ignition may prevent you from using the key as usual. Share the vehicle’s location and what happened so we can discuss the situation before coming out.
The broken piece is difficult to see
A key can break flush with the lock opening, making it hard to tell how much remains inside. Describe what you can see; we’ll assess the lock and fragment at your location.
You’re left unable to lock or unlock the door
A broken key can leave you unable to operate a door lock. If you’re also locked out, tell us when you contact us; you can also ask about our house lockout service.
Broken Key Extraction Includes an Assessment of the Lock and Fragment
- A look at where the key broke — We assess the lock opening and the position of the fragment to understand the situation before working on it.
- Attention to the affected lock — Tell us whether the key broke in a house door, car door, or ignition so we can focus on the lock involved.
- Removal of the broken key piece — The service is focused on removing the part of the key left in the lock. Avoid pushing or turning the fragment before we assess it.
- A discussion of the next step — After the fragment is addressed, the condition of the key and lock can guide what to do next. We can discuss whether you need a replacement key or another locksmith service.
- Related lockout help — If the broken key has also left you outside your vehicle, ask about car lockout service when you call.
- Mobile service at your location — We come to you rather than operating from a storefront. Share the address or location where the key broke when arranging service.

- Tell us what happened — Call and explain whether the key broke in a house lock, car door, or ignition. Let us know if you can see the fragment and whether you can still operate the lock.
- Share where the lock is — Give us the location where you need help and identify the specific door or lock. If it’s a vehicle, say whether the fragment is in the door or ignition.
- We assess the break — At your location, we look at the lock and the fragment to determine the situation. The fragment’s position and the type of lock help guide the work.

Broken Key Extraction Pricing Depends on the Lock and Fragment
The cost depends on details such as whether the key broke in a house lock, car door, or ignition; how the fragment sits in the lock; and whether the lock has another issue that needs attention. A fragment that is hard to access may call for a different approach than one that is clearly visible.
Broken key extraction does not have a listed price on our service menu. Contact us with the location and a description of the break, and get a free quote before deciding how to proceed.
