all good, thanks for the feedback,,,

Oh thank God your a life saver u got stuck at my door for ages before I found this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

I owe you a great deal of thanks! I was struggling with my lock for close to 30 minutes before I looked it up! 2 seconds and done!

Legend thankyou just saved standing out in the rain longer than I would have been!. Not all heroes wear capes.

Thank you . Extremely well explained. My problem solved in minutes after viewing your video. i wish I'd gone to you tube first instead of wasting about 10 minutes jiggling the stuck key -at night -out side in below zero temperatures. we are in the bush and a long way from any Locksmiths so THANK YOU again

😘 I LOVE YOU! This just saved me and my 2 year old and 7 month old twins having to sleep with the front door unlocked

Thank you so much for the video. Had been told that I needed a new lock when all I needed was to tighten the screws...

Thanks for taking the time to show this.

Mate you’re a legend , literally this video saved me from a melt down !

If you look carefully at the end of this video, it looks like Dr. Lock actually has a bit of trouble pulling out the key after he tightened the pair of screws at the back of the cylinder. He said the two screws need to be tightened very tight. But you might not want them so tight, because the plug (a.k.a. core) might need to portrude slightly forward (around 1/32 inch) in order for the plug's pins to align well with the holes above them when pulling out the key. If that's the case, replacing the two screws with screws that are a slightly different length, or inserting very thin shim washers between the screws and the cylinder back, might allow you to fully tighten the screws and have the plug end up in the optimal, slightly portruding position. An important step that's missing from this video is how to remove the cylinder from the lock in order to access the two loose screws on its backside. It would help to include a link to a video that shows how to remove the cylinder.

Thanks a lot!!!

Thanks champion you safe me time and money

WORKED.. I Really appreciate it

LEGEND!!!!!

I have an Ultion lock that can be a bit of a nightmare for removing the key when unlocking and locking the door. it makes me really anxious every time I put the key in the door. The key has to be exactly in the 12 o clock position but even then I'm having to wriggle it a little bit to remove the key

I was about to say this didn’t work for me but then I turned my key 180 degrees and it slid out easy peasy

Thanks it worked 3🙂

Thanks Dr Lock done a d fixed

My key are stucked but i cant put it back to 12’olock direction, any help? Thanks been locked out for an hour figuring it out

bike lock is a different system

Omg my circle and key are stuck any solution?

What if it won't go perpendicular? Pushing on the center doesn't help. Now, this is a car lock that is not secured to the door (I'm changing the handle), but even if I hold the cylinder with my hand from the inside, I can't get the key to get all the way straight up-and-down (only a degree or two shy of it). So I presume that's why it won't come out.

Never mind, I got it. The cylinder - somehow - got turned so that a pin that was keeping it from rotating far enough had gotten pushed around/over a nob that it wasn't supposed to go past. I lifted the pin over the nob, allowing the cylinder to turn farther, and the key came out.

My key is stuck but won't turn and get aligned to the 12 o'clock position. Any suggestions?

What if I can't rotate it?

I put wrong key in lock and it wont go out, what should l do?

So I was just not think right today lol. Trying to take the key out as soon as I unlock it and not turning it back

Mine is still not coming out, what do i do? The little circle won't budge please help

What to do when it doesn't get to the 12 o'clock position?

Mine is stuck in the horizontal position, won't budge the other way

I failed on step 1, my key won’t turn to the position where it can be removed 🥺

I have sliding doors and I added an upper lock door jam and the key is stuck inside and it won’t move at all it’s stuck in left to right not in 12 o’clock position how to I get key out?

In my case, there are no screws to re-tighten. But no big deal. The key was pulling the inner cylinder outward, and that caused the lockup. Thus the key was at war with the inner cylinder. To resolve this problem, one must stop the key from grabbing on to the inner cylinder. So I took a lead pencil and put plenty of graphite on the key, and then inserted and removed the key several times. I repeated this graphite application to the key twice, along with the multiple reinsertions of the key. Bingo, the graphite now acts as a slippery lubricant, and so the key no longer grabs the inner cylinder and thus no longer pulls it outward. Now the key just flies out with ease.

@DrLockShop

Graphite dose not fix, something at the back of the cylinder is allowing the inner part to move too much "forward", the pins can not slide up as the top chamber holes are not alined, graphite is just a lubricant, you still have a problem, I would check it

@@DrLockShop Like I said, the key now goes in, and comes out, easier that it has before in the past 16 years of which I have lived in my apartment. The lock had been in use for well over 35 years and any lubricant had surpassed its life limits. A car engine will not do well if you remove the oil. That does not mean that there is something wrong with the engine itself. Just add oil, and bingo, things are back to norm. For instance, If you add a lubricant to the word "Dose", its letters will automatically reorder themselves back to the proper order of "Does".

@DrLockShop

@@new-knowledge8040 Hi, a car engine is designed to use oil, a lock cylinder inline pin cylinder does not need lubricant if its correct and was not designed to need a lubricant to be added. The lubricant is allowing the misaligned parts to slide past the point of contact and be felt less. But if it works and you can use the lock then it's all good, and if it saves you from having to the lock part then its a good temporary fix. But for me as a Locksmith, it would not be classed as repaired. Most of the time the repair is just as easy, If you send post a link of your lock, I can do a video to show the fix

Nope crap!! Thanks 🙏
