Frequently Asked Questions

How much to get back into my apartment?

Apartment lockouts are $75-$150. The price depends on the lock type - a standard deadbolt is quick and cheap, a mortise lock takes a bit more finesse. We tell you the price on-site before we start. No surprises at the end.

Can you get in without breaking my lock?

Yes - that's the whole point of hiring a licensed locksmith. We open deadbolts, mortise locks, jimmy-proof locks, and knob locks without any damage. Your lock works normally when we're done. We've handled thousands of apartment lockouts in NYC and almost never need to drill.

I have an old building with a weird lock - can you handle it?

Pre-war buildings are our bread and butter. Vintage mortise locks, jimmy-proof deadbolts, skeleton key locks - we've seen it all. We carry bypass tools and replacement parts for the older stuff that most locksmiths don't bother with.
