Why Keys Get Stuck in a Lock

A key that will not turn or will not come back out is usually a sign of wear inside the lock rather than a problem with the key — worn or dirty pins inside the cylinder, old lubricant that has gone sticky, or a key that has become slightly bent or worn from years of use can all cause this.

Forcing a stuck key is the main risk to avoid, since that is one of the most common ways a key ends up snapping instead of just being stuck. Removing it carefully and checking the cylinder usually resolves the immediate problem; if the cylinder itself has worn out, replacing just the cylinder is normally enough without needing to change the whole lock.
