    Good demonstration. Thank you for staying with it to get the broken key out of the door knob. It demonstrated you don't give up and keep trying different angles until you can get hold of it.

    awesome simple instructions. my wife broke her key off in our patio door lock flush to the lock, after watching the video it took her 30 seconds to extract the key. Thanks Uriah.

    just wanted to say thank you so much for this video - I realized I needed special tools. With your knowledge and proper tools I managed to get the key out. FYI the key broke perfectly where there was no way of going over it.

    Thanks buddy! I had the concept before I watched your video, so I knew I was on the right track. I’d given up hope until I watched you! Thanks for the inspiration! Took me less than a minute after I watched you. Thanks!

    I had a key broken in the lock on a home door. I grabbed tweezers, needle nose, and what really did it was the dental cleaning set I have. It worked like a champ. I know, most people hate the dentist and would never have their own professional dental tools.

    My Double-Sided & Four-Sided Key broke in the lock. Good luck getting that thing out. Now we are STUCK in our apartment as it is almost midnight now. Hoping no emergencies happen till the morning...

      update on the situation, a very experienced (I assume) locksmith solved the issue in about 5 minutes: as far as I understand, he sprayed the lock with oil, did something with some sort of File, and BAM the broken part was out, the lock was not destroyed in any way. Clean...

    I broke my key off in a truck door while removing it. The company mechanic took a large paper clip, bent the tip and put a drop of super glue on the bent end, stuck the paper clip to the side of a magnet, which was stuck to the lock face to steady it while it adhered. While holding the flap open with a screwdriver, he touched the tip to the broke off key and eventually pulled it out.
    He'd done that before. Thanks

    Great examples. But what do you do if with a mortice security door key that is broken on inside and outside Key won't turn so door is locked where I can't open it to get to the set screw. If the inner lock key is turned should I be able to open from the outside?

    By a $6.00 feeler gauge set use +/-0.025 and grind down the height enough to slide on the sides of the keyway. Smear baking soda on the front of the cylinder and keyway.. Put a few drops of super glue on one side of the modified feeler gauge (key side) and slide into keyway and allow to set up. Remove key. You can also use old or broken picks if they're thin enough and you have some kickn' around.🔐

    • @GuardianSafeAndLock
      @GuardianSafeAndLock  9 місяців тому +1

      Broken picks are very useful.

    • @MindKontrolleProject
      @MindKontrolleProject 9 місяців тому +1

      Not if the super glue is at the tip of the tool (glue is facing the key side only?) The tool is slid in-between the keyway and broken key It will only makes contact to the key. Let setup and jiggle pull or zip it out. Whatever technique works best.

    Maybe I’ll try that one day. I just use the broken key to lock and unlock the door but I can’t make a spare so I guess I’ll need to make another key one of these days so I’ll dig it out. Thank you.

    • @GuardianSafeAndLock
      @GuardianSafeAndLock  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah Bc if it gets pushed in even a millimeter it will stop working. I’d get it fixed sooner than later.

    @randygiedd6385 2 роки тому +1

    A mini file works great just insert under the broken key pry down until you've got grip and slide out. A paper clip with a hook bend at the end sometimes works too.apartment maintenance

    Use a tiny flat head screwdriver, like what you find in an eyeglasses repair kit. Put the smallest bit of gel super glue, and touch it to the key. Count to 10 so it's dry, and pull out your key. Voila! I've used this method a few times and so far, it has always worked.

    I had my key break off in my car ignition and I have used a jigsaw blade. I filed it thinner and was able to get it up there and grab the teeth and pull it right out.
    It would still start with a broken kit but that was a bad idea since anyone could get in and start the car lol

    Again, another great video and very informative as usual. 1 question 🙋🏽‍♂️- in a real life situation, are you able to adjust the door to a suitable angle like you did the practice device? Lol

    • @GuardianSafeAndLock
      @GuardianSafeAndLock  4 роки тому +11

      Harry Adu lol to answer your question no but in a real life situation the lock will be mounted to a door making it sturdy, the only reason it was leaned back was to make it sturdy not to make it easier. Anytime we try to pick a lock or demo on a display it’s kinda frustrating bc it moves all over the place as you try to pick it or extract a key.

    This comment is about a different video I watched on your channel. I’m subscribed. You referred to ‘Fundamentals of Master Keying’ by Jerome V. Andrews. I tried to buy the book but could not find it. We’ve just recently purchased a locksmith company up here in Ontario, Canada. Oddly enough, we don’t have to be licensed here to have a locksmith company. So I am unable to give a license number to another locksmith supplier in order to get this book. Can I purchase this book from you? We take over the company on the first of January 2025 so I would like to learn what I can now. Thanks.

      Works if the key is close to the front but if it’s deep won’t work bc it will stick to the pins and cylinder. Thx for watching!
