2 ways to remove a broken key from the lock and not "cuckoo" outside the door

Every now and then something bad happens in life. Most often this is some unpleasant, frankly annoying little thing. In this case, you should not despair. We need to roll up our sleeves and try to fix the problem. Take, for example, such a rare, but extremely untimely incident like a foreign object getting stuck in the lock. For example, a key broken off due to poor quality metal. Solving the problem can be easier and faster than it seems at first glance.

To implement the simplest way to extract the key, we need a needle or any other similar tool. The main thing is that it is long enough and strong enough, as well as a suitable thickness. The essence of the method is to pry the key stuck in the lock with a needle and pull it so that you can then grab it with the pliers.

As soon as you can feel that the eye of the needle has grabbed the key, you need to make an effort and immediately pull it towards you. With a high degree of probability, the picked up key can even be pulled out with your fingers.

To implement the second method, you will need a thin drill. Its diameter should not exceed the dimensions of the slot of the key larva. Otherwise, there is a risk of serious damage to the mechanism. The essence of the method is to drill a drill, thereby making a hole. Then a screw with a slightly larger diameter of the working part is inserted into it. When this is done, you also need to pick up the piece with the pliers and pull it out.
