How it works

We pull the broken piece out of the cylinder with special tools. Then we open the door. If the cylinder is worn, we recommend replacing it and tell you the price first.

How we get the broken piece out

With thin hook tools we reach behind the teeth of the key fragment and pull it forward. Before that, the cylinder has to be in its starting position. If the broken piece is stuck at an angle, we turn it back first. Drilling is rarely needed for this.

Rented flat

If the cylinder is damaged after the broken piece is removed, it usually belongs to the landlord. A swap makes sense then, but agree it with the landlord if the cylinder belongs to a system. We swap single cylinders at a fixed price.

Common mistakes

Using glue. Pushing the broken piece deeper with a needle. Carrying on with a bent spare key that will soon break too.

So it does not happen again

Replace old, thin keys. Look after stiff cylinders or have them changed. Never force a key.
