Broken Key Extraction in North Lynbrook, NY

A key broken near the tip in a standard door lock is the easiest and cheapest extraction, since there's enough of the key left to hook and pull. A break flush with the ignition or deep in a high-security cylinder takes longer and costs more, because the technician has less to work with and more risk of pushing the fragment further in.

The $95 to $225+ range reflects that spread. Your technician will look at the lock, tell you which situation you're in, and quote the price before starting, so you're not guessing.

Call (516) 636-1712 and a dispatcher takes down the problem and your number right away. The nearest available technician calls you back within a few minutes to talk through the break and give you a price, then heads out.

North Lynbrook sits between the Villages of Lynbrook and Malverne, and with no LIRR station of its own, technicians know to route in off the surrounding streets rather than plan around a station stop. Typical arrival is 15 to 30 minutes from your call.

Leave the broken piece where it is. Don't try to dig it out with tweezers, a paperclip, or superglue, since that can push the fragment deeper or damage the pins inside, turning a simple extraction into a lock replacement.

If the break is in a car ignition, don't attempt to start the engine. Have the other half of the key ready if you have it, since it helps the technician judge how much is left inside, and know whether the affected lock is a house door, a car door, or an ignition when you call.
