HELP with my doorknob... seriously...
 

My sister was turning our doorknob so hard that now her key is stuck in the knob. I've been pulling at this key with all my might and it won't come out. Any ideas, short of actually removing the knob assembly from the doorframe?

Pliers

Break the Door Down

Punch ur sister in the face.

Squrit some WD-40 onto the key in the direction of the lock.

BLits said this is the best thing to use for knobs of all proportions!!!

why not just take the whole thing off?

I mean it's not that hard to take off and put back on...

I'm too lazy to do that.... oOo:

as stated earlyer. lube it up. WD40 would probly be the easiest to squirt in. also make sure the key is actully in the right position.

Two words: Sledge Hammer.

Yeah, start working out. if your sister can twist a key, and you can't, theres a problem here.

My advise is: Grow bigger arms !

great combination!

get a locksmith!

When you put the key in, and turned the knob - the tumbeler probably bent the key. Thus you have a jagged piece of metal inside the lock. As said before, try WD40... and a pair of pliers. If it dosnt come out, you will have to replace the lock. You could also try turning the handle really hard the other way to bend the key back.

hmm. First off your suck its a door knob. or rather your sister sucks. IVe bent a key in a doorknob and it didnt get stuck. I reccomend the old wd-40 trick. if that dont work get someone stronger or take it apart

I have to admit... I thought this was going to be a thread about your sister actually being a "doorknob"

I was rather disappointed when I found out she just got her key stuck in one.

EVERYBODY gets a turn...

ONNNNE OF US!

well ive tried WD40, i've removed the lock from the door and tried prying the key out with a wrench and pliers and still it won't budge... i think a part of the key must have broken inside and is now stuck in the lock.... dammit

Go to the hardware store and buy a new doorknob! Jeese!

Take the entire doorknob to a locksmith. They'll get the key out and fix the lock and make you a new key.

why dont u take the entire door to the locksmith??


and besides the locksmith wouldnt have the right key, first of all he'll need:
1) mansion of with millions of shelves of keys
try each and every key in the mansion:

i dont think so!!

besides - i dont think that'l be legal! - easily break into someones house: jst take all 65billion keys with u!

the whole point of this thread is to avoid that

go to a locksmicth and ask oOo:

Trust me dude, buying a doorknob that looks like yours is gonna be way cheaper then to look up a locksmith and have him do all this shit, both in parts and labor.

Holy shit, a fuckin' door knob costs $8 at Home Depot. Go there and buy one you cheap bastard so the rest of us can go on with our lives!!

/me wonders how dumb people can be sometimes
