It’s important not to attempt removing the key yourself, as this can cause further damage. Instead, rely on our certified London locksmiths to carry out the service professionally. Here’s what to expect:
Discussion with your locksmith – On arrival, the technician will inspect the situation and explain the best method for safe key extraction.

The safest option is to leave the broken key inside the lock and call our locksmiths immediately. Trying to remove the snapped key yourself with tools can cause further damage to the lock, making extraction more difficult and costly.
The time required depends on the situation. In most cases, our locksmiths can complete the broken key removal in under an hour. If the key is deeply lodged or the lock is damaged, the technician may recommend a lock replacement for long-term security.
Yes. Our locksmiths carry a wide selection of BS3621 insurance-approved locks, including Yale locks, 2–5 lever Mortice locks, deadbolts, and multi-locks. If you need a different type of lock, the technician can source it for you, with any additional costs explained upfront.
It’s possible to cut a new key from the broken pieces, but it’s not always reliable. In many cases, it’s more cost-effective to replace the entire lock and provide you with a new set of keys for peace of mind. Key-cutting cannot be performed on-site, but our locksmith can advise you on the best option for your situation.
Our broken key extraction service in London is available across the entire Greater London area. Whether you’re dealing with a snapped key in your front door, a stuck key in your office lock, or even a broken car key in the ignition, our locksmiths can be with you quickly to resolve the issue.
