We are here to serve all your door, locks or key problems, all of the 24/7!
The key has one or more deep cuts which become the “weak point” of the key. After so much use (or just a little abuse) the key will break at these points. Having a deep cut as the first cut (next to the head of the key) can be real trouble; but a deep cut in the middle of the key can cause big problems too;
The key is made of a light-weight material not suitable for everyday use. Keys cut on aluminum blanks are a prime example. They will also break at a deep-cut “weak point” only sooner. Identified by their light weight and either grey in color; or sometimes bright colors such as red, green, blue or gold.
We locksmiths have a variety of tools for removing broken keys from locks. One of the more common tools we use is made of springy steel . There is a small tapered barb at the end of this tool that will dig or “bite”; into the broken key piece so the piece can be pulled out.
It is not absolutely necessary to invest in a broken key extractor tool. As long as the tool you use is made of sturdy metal, is narrow enough to enter the key way; and has a barb to grab on to the broken key you will likely be successful. A scroll saw or jig saw blade should do the trick.
In any event of a broken key, it is best to call for our 24 Hour Locksmith Oakville Support help, to make sure you can use the lock again. We will also make you a new key. Call us now for help!
