Why is my key stuck?

Posted on 2/1/2019


Is your key sticking or just not wanting to come out at all? It's most likely the tumbler has failed and is causing the issue. The only way to fix it is to have the tumbler replaced and depending on how worn the key is, it may have to be replaced also. Try hard to not force it as you could make the problem worse or more expensive.
