    Method 1: Now try it while the cilinder is still in the door and your work area is just 180 degrees aka a flat surface. Method 2: You still need to replace your cilinder. Using a 2nd key at the other side of the cilinder will push out the broken key in most cases.

    I'm not going to take the time to make a video about it, but if you take a sewing needle and break off one side of the eye, it can slide under the teeth of the key and the resulting hook will remove the key. I use a small pair of pliers to grip the needle. Obviously, size the needle to the lock.

    I have just removed the broken key from a lock very similar to this. I took it out of the door, held it with the broken key lowest and tapped the barrel gently a few hundred times. It just gradually came out due to gravity. I have to say i tried everything suggested in this vid and similar ... frustration was the only result. Just be patient, tap gently with a little hammer or similar and trust in the fact that it won't fall upwards! It will only make its way down until you can get a good grasp of it. Ah, such a relief to have it fixed.

    1. chew a gum until it loses its flavor. Then take it out of your mouth and mold it like a flat U-bed shape. Press the flat shape against the lock where broken key is showing. Now, put a string inside the U-shape and close it by folding down on both sides. Then, get an ice-cube and rub it over the gum until it is hardened. Lastly, pull the string gently to get the broken key out. 2.If that does not work, apply super glue or epoxy on the tip of the broken key and attach it to a string or something to pull the broken key out.

    And if neither of these work, get a bottle of Jim Beam and pour precisely one quarter of the contents into a bowl. Don't dilute the bourbon... it must be neat. Place the bowl on the floor, get down on all fours and start lapping up the alcohol and mewing like a cat. When the bowl is empty, call the locksmith. Half an hour later the broken key will have been removed from the lock and you'll be feeling very very mellow. Problem solved.
