Questions we hear a lot.

Do you answer the phone at night?

Yes. The locksmith line is open 24/7, nights and weekends included. Tell us what happened and we tell you what we can do.

Where do I get a spare key made?

At Amsterdam Hardware Depot, 924 Amsterdam Ave, the store that shares our address. Copies are made right there in the store, never at your door.

My building has old mortise locks. Can you work on them?

Yes. Most pre-war doors on the Upper West Side have them. We repair those, rekey them, or set a new one into the old door.

Can you put a smart lock on a co-op door?

Often, yes. We check the door and your building's rules first, then we choose the lock with you.

What do I need for a quote?

Tell us about the door on the phone, or text us a picture of the lock. The quote comes in writing, before anything is touched.
