Hello, This morning, as usual, I wanted to close the door to my apartment and unfortunately, after turning the key, I could not remove it anymore. I can turn the key, lock and unlock the door, but unfortunately I cannot remove the key. WD40 and pliers are not helping yet. The lock is ABUS,...

Unscrew the bolt on the front of the slide that holds the lock and remove the lock from the lock. Buy a new cylinder of the same size and install it in the lock.

Thanks for your comprehensive answer. So I thought that I would not avoid it, but you can always hope. The key is jammed amen. WD 40 and pliers and combining in all possible ways did not help. It's funny how these things happen in an instant with almost no warning

Hello,

This morning, as usual, I wanted to close the door to my apartment and unfortunately, after turning the key, I could not remove it anymore. I can turn the key, lock and unlock the door, but unfortunately I cannot remove the key. WD40 and pliers are not helping yet. The lock is ABUS, although I do not know the model, it is definitely a cylinder. Thank you in advance.
