    As a professional locksmith, I can tell you that what we are seeing done to these locks runs the risk of destroying the lock. I have never had to resort to anything more than extraction tools made for the job or a pair of tweezers. I see a lot of income potential in the things we were shown in this video.

Anyways I aligned the lock with a knife then used a super thin allen key from other side and it pushed the key out just enough to use a scalpel to prize the last bit then used fingers. Took me all of 90 seconds...so happy!!!

    Most of those are completly impractical or destructive.. Put a drop of super glue on the broken off part thats in your hand.. carefully rejoin the two parts before super glue sets and hold for 2 and half minutes.. carefully pull it out and get a key cut mediately.. works with the cheapest nastiest super glue because the metal break is fresh and clean so it grabs strong enough for removal.. Ive done this befor, fast.. no fuss.. no damage..

    I’ve never seen a lock made in the last 50 years in which you can push the key out from the other end.
    The hot glue method will work if you use it to stick an appropriately shaped piece of wood or metal to the key end, assuming the key can be removed easily.
    Individual results depend on the situation. It requires a little thought and preparation. The most important thing in this video is the importance of lining the key stub properly before attempting to remove it. Your results may vary.

      It's a profile cylinder lock, they are mainly used in Europe or those double windowed back doors in the US. ("French doors").
      As for key extraction, usually any small metal pointed object can be used if the keyway is aligned right. Kinda how he used the razor blade by "inching" it forward.

      Well I'm in the UK and I just pushed my deep broken key out from the other end with my smallest thinnest Allen key and damn am I happy about it. Sure needed a scalpel to prize it a little but without the thin Allen key from other side I would be screwed it was too far in.
