Broken Key Extraction in South Farmingdale, NY

A snapped key sitting near the front of a standard pin tumbler lock is the cheapest and fastest extraction, often at the low end of $95 to $225+. Cost climbs when the break is deep inside the cylinder, when it's an ignition rather than a door lock (ignitions often require partial disassembly), or when the key sheared off at an angle that makes the extractor tool harder to seat.

Your technician will look at the lock or ignition and give you the actual number before starting, not after.

South Farmingdale is car-dependent with no LIRR stop of its own, so technicians reach homes here by road, typically off Merrick Road (NY 27A), Route 109, or Route 110 depending on where in the CDP you are. Call the number and a dispatcher takes your job and callback number right away; the nearest available technician calls back within a few minutes to talk through what happened to the key and quote the extraction before heading out, with arrival typically in 15 to 30 minutes.

Do not try to fish out the broken piece with tweezers, a paperclip, or super glue. Those attempts frequently push the fragment deeper or damage the pin stack, turning a $95 extraction into a full lock or ignition replacement.

Leave the key where it is, have the remaining key piece (if you're holding it) available so the technician can match the cut, and know whether the lock is a house door, deadbolt, padlock, or a vehicle ignition when you call so the right tools come out with the tech.
