Snapped key in Longbenton?

Why Choose Us?

Don't reach for the pliers!

It’s tempting to try and dig that fragment out yourself with a pair of tweezers or, heaven forbid, a bit of superglue on the end of the broken bit. Please, for the sake of your lock, don't! Most of the time, this just pushes the broken piece further into the 'shear line', making it much harder for us to get out. We’ve seen many simple extractions turn into full lock replacements because a DIY attempt went wrong. We use specialist extraction hooks and spirals designed to grip the fragment and slide it out without scratching the internal pins. Usually, we can have it out in minutes, leaving your lock perfectly fine to use with a spare key.

Who We Are

Why keys snap in locks.

Most people think they just used too much muscle, but usually, there’s an underlying reason. Often, especially with the uPVC doors we see around North Tyneside, the multi-point locking mechanism has become slightly misaligned. This means you have to force the key harder than usual, which puts massive stress on the metal. Over time, that metal fatigues and eventually gives up. When we come out to your home in Longbenton, we won't just pull the key out and leave; we’ll check why it happened. If your door needs a bit of a tweak or the lock needs a drop of specialist lubricant, we’ll sort it so it doesn't happen again.
