Manhattan evictions involve some of the most complex building access scenarios in NYC. From high-rise co-ops on the Upper East Side with doorman-controlled access to walk-up tenements on the Lower East Side with vintage mortise locks, every eviction presents unique challenges. Our Manhattan eviction locksmith team arrives with the credentials, tools, and lock inventory to handle any building type — ensuring the marshal's schedule stays on track and the property is secured immediately after evacuation.
Manhattan Housing Court at 111 Centre Street handles eviction cases for the borough. Once a warrant of eviction is issued, a city marshal is assigned and schedules the eviction date. Manhattan evictions often involve additional coordination with building management, doormen, and super staff — particularly in co-op and condo buildings. Our technicians handle this coordination seamlessly, arriving with DCA credentials ready for marshal verification.
Pre-war walk-ups (Upper West Side, Harlem, Lower East Side) typically have mortise locks with multiple cylinders. Post-war high-rises use standard deadbolts and rim cylinders. Luxury co-ops may have Medeco or Mul-T-Lock high-security cylinders. We carry inventory for all of these.
For doorman buildings, we coordinate with building management to ensure access. The marshal presents the warrant to building staff, we verify our DCA license, and proceed to the unit. The process is the same — the marshal supervises, we open the door and change the locks.
Yes. Many Manhattan co-ops require Medeco or Mul-T-Lock cylinders. We carry these high-security locks on every eviction call and can match the building's existing keyway.
Single-unit eviction lock changes in Manhattan run $150–$250. Multi-lock setups range from $200–$350. We quote the exact price before the appointment.
