Can someone please help.
Key has snapped off in the lock. The lock is jambed which is why the key snapped. Its one of those euro lock ones in a PVC door.
Anyone got any advice on how to drill it out, snap it out or something?
Send a message through my profile is probably the best way.

Before anyone says it is a real problem and not i am not out to burgle some houses.
Can't afford a locksmith right now.

PS A few people on here can vouch for me if needed.

Needle nose pliers. Try superglueing the end of the key back on - unlikely to work but you're desperate.

Try some laxatives, they'll free you up in no time!

Have you a spare key that you can try from the other side?
