What to Do When Your Key Breaks Inside the Lock

Stay calm. Don’t force it because you might push the key deeper or damage the lock. 

Check how much is sticking out. If you can see a piece, try gently pulling it out with pliers. 

Don’t shake or bang the lock. This can make the key jam worse. 

Use a broken key extractor tool. If you have one, slide it in to hook and pull out the broken piece. 

Try a DIY trick. Use a paperclip or thin wire to carefully fish out the key. 

Spray a little lubricant. WD-40 or graphite powder can help loosen a stuck key. 

Avoid super glue. It rarely works and can ruin the lock. 

Call a pro if stuck. If nothing works, a locksmith can remove it safely without damage.
