Broken Car Key Extraction Service
Breaking off your car key inside any of the vehicle's door locks or inside the car ignition can be hugely inconvenient and stressful. Our expert Newark locksmiths have specialized tools and techniques to remove the broken section safely and efficiently without damaging your locks or the ignition.
Whether the break is clean or jagged, plastic or metal, our techs can extract the piece so a replacement key can be made. We verify the key type and assist with programming if needed to ensure your new key works smoothly.
Why Do Car Keys Break?
Wear and Tear - Constant inserting/removing and everyday use can weaken keys over time until they snap.
Forced Use - Trying to turn a sticky or frozen lock or ignition can apply too much pressure, breaking the key.
Extremes of Temperature - Very cold or hot weather conditions can make car door and ignition components contract or expanded, leading keys to break more readily when used.
Poor Quality - Cheap aftermarket keys often have flawed manufacturing and weak metal prone to breaking with regular use.
