Broken Key Extraction
Broken Key Extraction: Professional Recovery & Repair
It happens in a heartbeat: you turn the key, hear a snap, and suddenly you’re left holding half a key while the other half is stuck deep inside the lock or ignition.
Don’t panic, and don’t try to dig it out yourself. Using tweezers or glue can push the fragment further in or damage the delicate internal wafers of the lock. Access Gained provides expert broken key extraction services that save your locks and get you back on the road.
Precision Extraction, Zero Damage
Modern vehicle locks are intricate. When a key snaps, it often leaves the lock in a “turned” position or blocks the pins from moving. Our technicians use specialized surgical-grade extraction tools to safely slide the fragment out.
We specialize in:
Ignition Extraction: Safely removing snapped keys from ignition barrels without damaging the transponder coil.
Door & Boot Lock Recovery: Extracting broken blades from exterior locks.
Key Decoding: Once the fragment is out, we can “read” the cuts on the broken pieces to cut you a brand-new working key on-site.
Lock Lubrication & Servicing: We don’t just pull the key out; we clean and lubricate the lock to ensure the metal fatigue doesn’t cause another break.
