Prevention is always better than cure. If you keep this in your mind, you will be able to stay away from the frustration of broken keys. It is recommended for you to take a quick look at the condition of the key, before you insert it into the lock. You can also feel the key with your hands and check if it is vulnerable towards any breakage. If the keys are frozen inside the lock, you should never try to force it. Instead, you need to look for an alternative method to take them out.

You can seek the assistance of a lubricant in order to take out the jammed key inside the lock. This should be done carefully. If you follow the steps accordingly, getting the job done will not be too difficult for you.

You should first take WD40 or Pam Spray lubricant. You can simply spray it at the lock. Then you will be able to ease the part of the key, which is stuck inside the lock. Or else, you can think about inserting a part of a saw blade into the lock and try to loosen the key. Once you notice that the part of the key is loosened, you can hold the key shaft tightly and make sure that you get a proper grip. Then you will be able to release the shaft from the locks, so that you will be able to remove the broken piece with the help of nail clippers or tweezers.
