Broken Key Extraction in Tynemouth Operating Across North Tyneside

Snapped your key in the lock?

It always seems to happen when you're in a rush, doesn't it? You've just come back from a walk along Longsands, or you're trying to get the shopping in from the car, and snap – half the key is in your hand, and the other half is firmly stuck inside the lock. If you’re in Tynemouth or anywhere across North Tyneside, don't worry. It's one of the most common calls we get at Fortify Locksmiths, and honestly, there's no need to stress. While it looks like a disaster, we've got the tools and the experience to sort it out without needing to replace your whole door. It is a frustrating situation, but usually, it's a very straightforward fix for a professional.

Why Choose Us?

Resist the urge to DIY

We know it's tempting to grab a pair of pliers or, heaven forbid, some superglue to try and fish that bit of metal out yourself. Most homeowners we speak to in North Tyneside tell us they nearly tried it! But please, stop right there. Poking around with hairpins or trying to glue the key back together usually just pushes the fragment deeper into the barrel or ruins the internal pins. Once that happens, a simple extraction turns into a much bigger job. Instead, give us a ring at 0191 743 2410. We use specialist extraction hooks and spirals that gently grip the broken piece and slide it out without causing a single scratch to your lock.

Broken Key Extraction in Tynemouth And Surrounding Areas

Local Tynemouth Experts Operating Across All Of North Tyneside

Specialist tools for every door

Whether you've got a modern uPVC door with a stiff multi-point locking system or a traditional wooden door with a mortice lock, we can help. Living by the coast in Tynemouth, the salt air can sometimes make mechanisms a bit temperamental, leading to 'lock binding' where the internal parts catch and put pressure on the key's shear line. Our non-destructive entry methods mean we aim to save your lock barrel every single time, saving you the cost of a full replacement. Once the broken bit is out, we can even provide on-site key cutting to get you sorted immediately, ensuring you aren't left stranded without a way to lock up.
