# Key Stuck in the Lock in Powdersville, SC

A key that goes in but will not come back out is a common call in Powdersville. Yanking on it can snap the key, so slow down first.

- Make sure the key is turned all the way back to the straight position before pulling.
- Wiggle gently while pulling straight out, without bending the key.
- A puff of dry graphite lubricant can help a sticky cylinder; avoid oily sprays.
- If the key bends or will not budge, call a local locksmith before it breaks off.
