About this service
A broken key stuck in your car door or ignition can leave you stranded — and forcing it out risks damaging the lock cylinder. Alpha Locks and Safe offers professional automotive broken key extraction across Westchester County, using specialized tools designed to remove snapped key fragments without scratching or warping the lock mechanism.
Keys break for many reasons: metal fatigue from years of use, extreme cold making the blade brittle, or forcing a key into a misaligned lock. Whatever the cause, our mobile locksmith team arrives equipped with extractor sets, decoder picks, and pin-tumbler tools to retrieve the broken piece cleanly. Once the fragment is out, we inspect the lock for internal damage and test it with a working key.
If the original key is too worn to copy, we can cut a fresh replacement on-site using your vehicle's key code. We work with domestic and import vehicles of all model years. Pricing is transparent — you receive a firm quote before any work begins, and there are no hidden trip fees or after-hours surcharges on standard service calls.

Dor did everything to ensure that the car was opened. He was fast and courteous, even though I was initially frustrated and irate. He was calm and polite. Couldn't have gotten a better technician.
