  • @sanderspaargarencatch-alla51
    @sanderspaargarencatch-alla51 7 лет назад +10

    Method 1: Now try it while the cilinder is still in the door and your work area is just 180 degrees aka a flat surface.
    Method 2: You still need to replace your cilinder.
    Using a 2nd key at the other side of the cilinder will push out the broken key in most cases.

  • @victorrobison5069
    @victorrobison5069 7 лет назад +6

    I'm not going to take the time to make a video about it, but if you take a sewing needle and break off one side of the eye, it can slide under the teeth of the key and the resulting hook will remove the key. I use a small pair of pliers to grip the needle. Obviously, size the needle to the lock.

  • @Graza25

    I use a pick, usually a single hook!!!.. Slide it down the side, twist the pick and pull.. POP, out the broken key cameos... BOOM into the grinding machine and make your customer a new key

  • @aidanr444
    @aidanr444 3 года назад +1

    I have just removed the broken key from a lock very similar to this. I took it out of the door, held it with the broken key lowest and tapped the barrel gently a few hundred times. It just gradually came out due to gravity. I have to say i tried everything suggested in this vid and similar ... frustration was the only result. Just be patient, tap gently with a little hammer or similar and trust in the fact that it won't fall upwards! It will only make its way down until you can get a good grasp of it. Ah, such a relief to have it fixed.
