A good locksmith should be able to READ the tumblers and/or pick the lock
to get the cylinder out. Once out, a key can be made.

Unfortunately the latter. The cylnder needs to move to an odd
position in
order to come out. It won't rotate to that position unless the key
teeth
have pulled all the tumbler teeth down flush. Think about it.
Wouldn't be
much of a lock if someone with a blank key could just slide it out.

Any idea what happened to the broken off piece? I was able to prise
mine out
with needles and then managed to bodge up a replacement so I could
remove the
cylinder. Once out, I tossed the whole thing and installed a new
one with
two good keys.
