Asked by Adrian over 1 year ago

Yes you can. A locksmith has special tools to pull that broken key out without damaging the function of the lock in most cases.

How can you unlock a magnetic lock, that's locked from the inside and you're stuck outside? How much would it cost for a locksmith to do that?

Asked by Peaches almost 3 years ago

Depends on your area and who you hire. Could be $75 to $250 depending on what needs to be done. It’s impossible for me to say what needs to be done to gain entry without seeing your setup and being there. Every job is different, & this is a special situation.

So I have a madeco lock I took apart the housing it was in and lost one of the parts there is like a threaded sleeve it goes in well I lost that sleeve can I still pick the lock or do I need that to continue ue

Asked by Jack over 1 year ago

Unfortunately I am not sure what part you’re talking about. I am not familiar with a threaded sleeve in a Medeco lock; but as long as you have all of the internals springs & pins you should be fine.
