Neighbors' door
I just now met another Neighbor Lady,,Jen knocked on My door and said
She broke Her key off in the front door..I grabbed a few tools and went to help..I could'nt get hold of the broken part of the key with My needlenose pliers and She wanted to just kick it in! I had one more idea tho and picked up the small prybar I had brought with,,stuck it between the door and jam right by the knob and pried against the jam pushing the door one way and the jam the other way,,the door popped open and just a dent in the wooden jam/doorstop for damage..She unlocked it from inside and I asked Her to test it to see if it still latched,,it did so no more adjustments needed by Me..She and Her Boyfriend can work on gettin the old key out or replacing the entry set with new..That's My good deed for the day.. I shoulda told Her to get a deadbolt,,it's too easy to gain entry there.. Dean |

If a Sherriff shows up I'll hand Em the tools and My Hikers so They have the evidence to convict Me for helping a neighbor in need,,there's a plain set of My tracks over and back!!I'll just tell Em what happened if it comes up and let the chips fall where they may..The black n white would have to be a white n gold Deputy Sherriff cause this town is too small to have a police force..I get what Yer All sayin tho and thanks..It's usually pretty mellow here..When I crank-up the old Bose 901s I'm about as loud as this town gets!! except for the one and only bar accross the street occasionally.. On the few occasions when I thought something was stolen I found it right where I left it later on,,,all except one small compressor but I might have left that on the jobsite,,I just dunno..My stuff being borrowed and not returned tho,,THAT'S another story lately!! Speaking of the 901s does anyone have a set of the same for sale? I need two more for the back channels! Gotta make My classic rock(top tracks DTV)reeeelly shine sometimes!

Open a bottle of wine so she can relax from the stress of this ordeal. Pull the curtains closed so bright light would not cause her a headache, may be rub her shoulders to relieve the stress. Carry on with your good deed. |

To make a broken key extractor take a thin hacksaw blade like the ones
that go in the 6" wire frames and break it in half. Holding the pin end choose the half that has the teeth pointing towards the pin end and grind away a good portion of the back. The remaining part with the teeth will snag the key and allow you to extract it. Sometimes there is just enough luck that putting the handle end of the key in the lock with the broken piece will allow you to gain entry before removing the piece.

I had one like that.
I took a couple of nails and crossed them with their points at top and bottom of the slot, and turned it. The key portion still had to come out, but the door got opened.
