Lock changes in Queens often involve multiple doors in a single visit. Homeowners in neighborhoods like Forest Hills, Bayside, and Fresh Meadows typically want all exterior doors rekeyed to one key — front door, back door, side entry, and sometimes a garage. Row house owners in Jackson Heights and Sunnyside may need their multi-point locking security door upgraded. Apartment tenants in Astoria and Flushing usually need a straightforward deadbolt and jimmy-proof lock swap. Whatever the situation, our Queens locksmiths carry the right hardware on every truck.
Queens has the highest percentage of homeowners in NYC, which means we do more multi-door lock changes here than in any other borough. A typical Queens homeowner lock change includes 2–4 exterior doors, each potentially with different hardware. We specialize in rekeying mismatched locks to a single key, saving homeowners from carrying a ring of keys. We also frequently install deadbolts on doors that only have knob locks — a common upgrade for 1950s–1960s Queens homes that were built before deadbolts became standard.
A full home lock change for a Queens house typically runs $300–$600 depending on the number of doors and lock types. Standard deadbolts are $100–$180 each; adding deadbolts to doors that only have knobs is $120–$200 per door including hardware. We provide a complete quote during the visit.
