Male, 46
I've been a locksmith since 1998. I did automotive residential & commercial work from 1998 to 2008. From 2008 to 2018, I did some residential, but mostly commercial work. I have been project managing & estimating since 2018. I used to locksmith in the Chicago area, now the Austin area.
I believe an automotive locksmith should be able to make a key for you.

No and no. You will have to get a locksmith to come out.
Share Answer: 
Take it to a locksmith & they can pull it out for you. Should be very inexpensive.

What's the closest you've come to "losing it" on someone you were helping?
Yes you can. A locksmith has special tools to pull that broken key out without damaging the function of the lock in most cases.
Share Answer: 
You can install a latch guard to cover the gap between the jamb and the door. Or, if the lock is installed and adjusted correctly, you can’t pull the latch back. It’s designed to lock the latch in the extended position. https://youtu.be/x0Rl_j-xJhY?si=3paMiQhzjrwwkxnE
Share Answer: 
I would assume yes. You could search for a compatible lock at Strybuc.com, or if you know the manufacturer of the door, you may be able to get one from them or through a distributor who sells that brand.
