Residential Key Extraction
Broken Key in Your Lock? We Can Help
A broken key stuck inside your door lock can leave you locked out of your home and unable to secure or access your property. Lock N More provides expert residential key extraction services designed to safely remove broken or jammed keys without damaging your lock or door whenever possible.
This issue often happens due to worn keys, aging locks, rust, or excess force when turning the key. Attempting to remove a broken key yourself can push it deeper into the lock or cause internal damage, leading to more expensive repairs. Our trained locksmith technicians use specialized extraction tools to carefully remove the broken piece and restore proper lock function.
Because residential lock issues can happen at any time, we offer mobile locksmith service throughout South Florida. We come directly to your home, apartment, or condo equipped to handle most key extraction situations on-site, helping you regain access quickly and safely.
Common Causes of Broken Keys in Residential Locks
- Worn or weakened house keys
- Old or rusted lock mechanisms
- Excess force when turning the key
- Misaligned door or deadbolt
- Dirt or debris inside the lock cylinder
- Freezing or weather-related lock stiffness

How long does key extraction take?
Most residential key extractions can be completed quickly once the technician arrives, depending on the severity of the break.
What should I do if my key breaks inside the lock?
Do not try to force it out. Avoid using tools like tweezers or glue, as this can worsen the damage. Call a professional locksmith for safe extraction.
A piece of my key broke in the lock. Can you fix the lock?
In most cases, we can remove broken key fragments from inside the lock.
Will removing a broken key damage the lock?
Not necessarily. We will try to remove the key without permanently damaging the lock.
Why did my key get stuck in the lock?
Over time, the inner moving parts of the lock wear down and don’t fit properly together with the key for the lock to work. The same is true if the key wears down too much.
If the lock gets damaged from extracting the key, will I need a new one?
Not necessarily. We will try not to damage the pins in the process, but if we do, we may be able to replace them. Or, we may need to rekey the lock, which will replace the cylinder plug but not require a whole new lock.
Can you replace my keys after extraction?
Yes. If needed, we can cut and provide new keys or rekey the lock so you have a fresh set that works properly.
