Brownstone walk-ups and converted lofts dominate Williamsburg and Greenpoint, with a mix of vintage mortise locks, jimmy-proof deadbolts, and modern smart lock installations in the newer condo developments.
The heart of Brooklyn's brownstone belt features classic entry door mortise locks, Segal jimmy-proof deadbolts in apartments, and increasingly popular keyless smart locks in renovated townhouses and condos.
A diverse mix of brownstone row houses, pre-war walk-ups, and NYCHA developments. Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights brownstones typically have oversized mortise locks on entry doors, while apartment units use standard deadbolts and jimmy-proof locks.
Modern luxury condos in DUMBO and Downtown Brooklyn feature electronic access control and smart locks, while nearby Vinegar Hill and Red Hook retain older industrial-era hardware on converted loft buildings.
Single-family homes, semi-detached houses, and low-rise apartment buildings with standard Schlage and Kwikset deadbolts, gate locks on ground-level units, and storefront locks on the commercial corridors.
A high-density residential area with multi-family homes, walk-up apartments, and large housing developments. Lock hardware ranges from standard deadbolts to jimmy-proof locks and gate padlocks on basement-level entrances.
Detached homes and small apartment buildings near the waterfront, many with standard residential deadbolts, screen door locks, and gate locks. The salt air environment means more frequent lock maintenance and replacement.
Response time: 15-30 minutes
Brooklyn's mix of brownstones, walk-ups, and modern developments means a wide variety of lock types. We handle everything from vintage mortise locks in brownstone parlor floors to modern smart lock installations in new Williamsburg construction. Our trucks carry inventory for all of it.
That's us. We have technicians covering Brooklyn overnight - not sitting in Manhattan waiting to drive over. Average arrival is 15-30 minutes to any Brooklyn neighborhood. Call (347) 701-2622 and we'll give you an ETA on the phone.
Standard lockouts run $75-$150 depending on the lock type. Brownstone locks and mortise locks can be on the higher end because they take more skill. We always tell you the price before we start - no bait and switch.
Brooklyn brownstones are our bread and butter. Mortise locks, multi-point locks, old skeleton key hardware - we've seen it all. We can repair what you have or upgrade you to something more secure while keeping the brownstone look.
No. Same price at 3am as 3pm. A lot of locksmith companies hit you with a 'night surcharge' or 'emergency fee' on top of the job price. We don't do that. The quote we give you is the price you pay.
Yes, same-day lock changes are one of our most common calls. We bring locks with us - no need to go to a hardware store first. A full apartment (2-3 locks) usually takes about an hour. Call us and we can often be there within the hour.
