When a business in Yorkshire snapped their only key in the safe they knew who to call for their safecracker needs. We have attended this business in the past to open another safe so our reputation preceeded us. As with the previous safe, this one was opened with minimal fuss, the lock was changed and new keys provided.
Key Stuck In Safe
Brattonsound Gun Cabinet Snapped Key
We were recommended this job by another locksmith who had been out to look at it but couldn’t help. The key had snapped off in the lock and although he had a spare key he couldn’t get it into the lock. We were able to extract the broken key to open the cabinet and suppy a new set of keys. These locks are one of many that we keep in stock so that jobs like this can be done in an emergency.

All those years playing “Operation” paid off extracting a very stubborn broken key from this Burton Watchman Safe. Didn’t even buzz once!
Samuel Withers Antique Safe Opening Wales
We were called to open this lovely old Samuel Withers safe in Wales as part of the key had broken in the lock. We extracted the offending part and opened the safe non destructively.
Stratford Sterling Key Broken In Lock
A pleasant trip to the seaside to look at this Stratford safe in Lytham St Annes on the Fylde coast of Lancashire. The reported problem was that a bit of the key had snapped off in the lock and indeed we found several pieces of key bit wedged inside it. Extracting the broken pieces was a bit of a fiddle in the confined space in front of the safe but we got them out eventually. The lock had half opened but wouldn’t open far enough to allow us to open the door which is why the key had been forced and broken. With a bit of patience we were able to free the blockage and get the door open without having to drill the safe. With the door open we were able to fix the mechanism and put the safe back into service.

The key had snapped in the lock of this Dudley Harlech safe at a business in Manchester. We opened the safe non-destructively and supplied them with a new set of keys. If you need a safe cracker in Manchester then give us a call.
Chubb TDR Safe Key Broken In Lock
We were called to open this Chubb TDR safe for a client in Ormskirk, the story was that the key had been stuck but they had managed to get it out. Once on site we found a broken key stem and no key bit so we proceeded to open the safe none destructively. Once open we found the key bit inside the back pan. Nice to see a quality safe from the days when engineering was all about quality and not price.
SMP HSSC High Security Storage Cabinet
The only key had snapped in the stiff lock of this SMP cabinet used to store controlled drugs at a hospice pharmacy in Blackpool. We received the call early on a Sunday morning as patients were waking and would require their medication within a couple of hours so we headed straight out to the job arriving on site within the hour. After fishing out the broken key bit we were able to open the cabinet without damage and replaced the lock supplying them with a new set of keys.

Chubb Europa Keys Stuck In Locks
A bar in Liverpool One had used the wrong keys in each lock of this Chubb Europa safe and having tried to force the locks open the keys had become mangled and snapped off deep inside the locks. Two companies had already attended the job prior to them calling us and despite charging for their time they had only managed to add to the problem by filling the keyway with blu-tack (The mind boggles). After a lengthy battle we were able to remove all of the broken bits of keys and proceeded to pick the locks open as no spares were available. Having opened the safe with zero damage to it we changed the locks and provided new sets of keys.
