At Elite Locksmiths Denver, we provide professional broken key extraction tailored for Denver Drivers. When lock hardware fails, you need a verifiable, licensed expert – not an out-of-state dispatch service. Our technicians operate from a real storefront, bringing transparent pricing and damage-free solutions to every job.
What We Do: Broken Key Extraction
Common Situations We Handle in Denver Drivers
From Colorado freeze-seized deadbolts to high-traffic commercial door wear – our Denver-based team carries the exact parts to resolve your issue on-site, without a return visit.
-
Lockouts – Day or Night
Our most common call. Whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM, we dispatch immediately to get you back inside your home, office, or vehicle without damage to your hardware.
-
Broken or Worn Keys in Locks
Non-destructive extraction – professional pick tools used before any drilling.
-
Misaligned Door Frames
Seasonal Colorado temperature swings cause frames to shift. We diagnose and realign on-site.

Security Upgrades After a Move
Rekey or replace after moving in – you never know who has a copy of the old key.

Lost or Stolen Keys
Immediate rekeying so the lost key is permanently invalidated – same-day service available.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
01 Can a broken key always be extracted without damage?
In most cases yes – we use extraction picks and spirals designed to grip and remove broken key fragments without damaging the cylinder pins.
-
02 What if the key fragment is too deep in the cylinder?
We use illumination and hook extraction tools to reach keys broken at any depth. If the fragment cannot be removed safely, we replace the cylinder and cut a new key.
-
03 Can you make me a new key immediately after extraction?
Yes – we carry key cutting equipment on every van. Once the fragment is removed, we trace or originate a new key and have you back in your vehicle quickly.
-
04 My key broke in the ignition and the car won't start – can you help?
Yes – we extract the fragment and diagnose whether the ignition cylinder was damaged during the break. We replace cylinders on-site for most vehicle makes.
-
05 How long does key extraction typically take?
Most extractions take 15-30 minutes. Complex cases or damaged cylinders may take up to 60 minutes.
-
06 Should I try to remove the broken key myself first?
We recommend against it. Attempts with pliers or glue often push the fragment deeper or damage the cylinder wafers, making professional extraction harder.
