One of the most common searches online in regards to locksmithing and security is "key stuck in lock". Today, Uriah of Guardian Safe & Lock wanted to go over the easy solution to this problem.

When you pull your key from the door's lock and it doesn't budge, you're right to feel worried. After all, this means you either cannot lock or unlock your door without leaving the key behind. This essentially makes it a thumb turn. With homes and businesses, this can get people into a bind as they can't leave while maintaining the security of their building.

However, this problem has a surprisingly easy solution.

This "stuck key" problem tends to happen due to an improperly installed lock cylinder, and the key can be removed from the lock without needing specialty tools in a surprisingly quick motion.
