Key Broken in Lock? Here's How to Get Help

Do you have broken or damaged car keys? Is the key broken in lock? Unfortunately, they tend to happen from time to time. Sometimes, the key won’t turn and end up getting stuck in the lock. And when you try to take it out, it either breaks or sometimes bends making it practically useless. A broken or damaged key could be a hassle, especially if you constantly use your car. When it happens, it’s best to call Nationwide Locksmith for help.

Most common car key problems

Car key issues sometimes happen due to several reasons. Here are some of the most common problems that are related to your car keys:

1. Key stuck in the car door or ignition - sometimes, a door lock or ignition barrel will cause your keys to get stuck. If you experience such situation, it’s best not to use force to insert or remove the key, as doing so will only cause it to break. If it fails to work on your door lock or ignition, the problem might not only be due to the key. It might also mean a faulty door lock or a collapsed ignition barrel. 
2. Worn out key - keys could also be subjected to wear and tear after years of continued use. As time goes by, a key’s peaks and grooves will start to dull, causing it not to work. If you apply too much force, the key might end up snapping causing it to get stuck inside the door lock or ignition barrel. If the key won’t turn, it’s best to replace it before any further damage might be done to your locks. While duplicating might be an option, it’s definitely not the best for a worn out key. You should call our services instead to replace your worn out key with a new one.
3. Broken car key - a broken car key rarely happens, but it does in some instances. For example, a badly worn out key could easily snap in the ignition or car door. The best option is to have your broken car key repaired through our state-of-the-art technology.
