Need Broken Key Extraction in Consett?
Broken Key Extraction in Consett Operating Across County Durham
Snapped your key in Consett?
It usually happens at the worst possible moment, doesn't it? You've just got back from the shops, or you're running late for work, and as you turn the key in your front door, you hear that heart-sinking snap. Suddenly, you're left holding half a key, while the other half is stuck firmly inside the lock. It’s a frustrating situation that many homeowners in Consett and across County Durham face, but please don’t panic. Whether it's a uPVC door, a sturdy wooden one, or even a window lock, we've seen it all before. The most important thing is not to try and poke the fragment back in or use DIY fixes like superglue, as this almost always pushes the metal deeper and ruins the lock barrel for good.
Why Choose Us?
Professional extraction saves your lock
Most people worry that a broken key means they'll need an entirely new lock, which can be a costly surprise. However, we specialise in non-destructive entry. This means we use highly specialised extraction tools—think tiny, precision hooks and spirals—to carefully grip the fragment and slide it out without causing a single scratch to the internal mechanism. Because we're NCFE Level 4 qualified, we have the technical expertise to handle delicate Euro cylinders and complex multi-point locking systems common in Consett homes. Our goal is always to save you money by keeping your original lock perfectly intact whenever possible.

Local Consett Experts Operating Across All Of County Durham
Fixing the root cause today
Have you noticed your uPVC door handle becoming stiff lately? Often, a snapped key is just a symptom of a deeper issue, like a misaligned door or a lock that’s started to 'bind.' If your lock is struggling, you end up putting more pressure on the key than it was ever designed to handle, leading to it shearing off at the weakest point. While we’re there extracting the broken bit, we can also check the health of your door. If the mechanism needs a bit of TLC or a simple realign, we can sort that out right then and there. We even offer on-site key cutting, so you won't be left without a way to secure your home. It’s all about giving you total peace of mind that your property is safe and your door is working as smoothly as it did the day it was installed.
