How to Remove a Broken Key from a Lock

How can we prevent this from happening again?

Prevention is better than cure! To avoid reliving this scenario, a few simple actions can make all the difference:

• Lubricate the lock regularly with a suitable spray (avoid classic oil which can clog the mechanism).
• Check the condition of your keys : a worn or bent key is more likely to break.
• Protect your locks from temperature variations which can affect their proper functioning.

Proper maintenance of your locks can help you avoid many problems. And if your key breaks again , you will now have the right reflexes to recover it without stress !
