I think I would start by trying to suck it out with a vacuum cleaner. You might 
put a small hook, a really small hook on the end of a thin wire but even a 
paper clip can be too thick to work into a keyhole.

  Good Morning,

  I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I have been catching up on email 
after being gone for a while and it sounds like some interesting projects are 
going on.

  My quest today is relatively small. I have a few doors in my house that I 
keep locked because my kids are really good at going three different directions 
the moment my attention is focused on something else. Anyway, I tried to put 
the key in one of the locks yesterday and the key would not go all the way in. 
I tried the key on another lock and it worked just fine. I think something very 
small may be inside the lock blocking the key. Is this the only possibility? 
Any suggestions for clearing the lock? I really hate the idea of having to get 
to the store twice to buy the lock and have it rekeyed to match the others 
before I can install a new lock.

  Jennifer
