Lockouts From FiDi to Inwood
Most Manhattan lockouts happen in apartment buildings, and many of them have high-security cylinders that can’t be opened like an ordinary lock. Our technicians carry the tools to open Medeco, Mul-T-Lock and similar locks without damage in most cases, and we work with doormen and supers so you’re not stuck in the hallway.
We always try non-destructive entry first. If a lock has to be drilled, you hear why and get an estimate before we start. To protect you, we ask for ID or proof that you live at the address before opening the door.
This page covers Manhattan. For lockouts anywhere in New York City, see our citywide house lockout page, or return to the Manhattan locksmith page.
