Many of us have been there. We try to put our key into the lock only to find it won’t go. Great, we’ll have to call a locksmith, right? Wrong. Well, hopefully. A great way to make sure you’re lock is slick enough for your key is found in pencils.

Use a pencil to free stuck locks

Just stick a sharp pencil right into your lock and make sure the inside is covered with the pencil lead. This acts as a great way to help your key slide in – and could save you hundreds of dollars on an emergency call-out.
