The simple answer to whether a skilled locksmith can remove a broken key that has snapped in a lock is yes. A professional locksmith will be able to remove snapped keys from all types of locks, such as removing snapped keys from door locks such as Yale locks, Euro cylinders, Garage Door Locks, Padlocks and Window locks. A professional locksmith can use specialised tools that most general tradespeople or householders might not have in their toolkits.
