Moving in? Rekeying is the single most important security step — it invalidates every old key in circulation. We also upgrade worn cylinders to high-security restricted keyways, repair sticking locks before they fail, and install smart deadbolts where your lease or board permits them.
What's Included
- ✓Move-in rekeying: Same-day rekeying for new apartments, so no previous tenant, broker, or contractor key still works.
- ✓Deadbolt installation: Single and double-cylinder deadbolts fitted to wood and metal doors, aligned to the strike for a smooth throw.
- ✓Landmark-door expertise: Careful work on pre-war and landmarked doors where drilling and replacement must respect the original woodwork.
- ✓Smart lock upgrades: Keypad and phone-operated deadbolts installed and configured for renters and owners alike.
- ✓Lock repair: Sticking cylinders, loose knobs, and misaligned strikes repaired — replacement only when repair will not hold.

Should I rekey or replace my locks when I move in?
Rekeying is usually enough and costs less: it changes the internal pins so old keys stop working. Replace when the hardware itself is worn, damaged, or a low-grade lock you do not trust.
Can you install a smart lock in a rental?
Often yes, as long as the lease and building allow it and the original hardware can be reinstalled at move-out. We fit models that replace only the interior side in many cases.
My co-op board has rules about locks. Can you help?
Yes. Many boards require specific lock types or keyways and notification before changes. We work within board rules daily and can advise before you buy anything.
Do you service mortise locks?
Yes — pre-war buildings across the West Side still run on mortise hardware. We repair, rekey, and replace mortise locks and cylinders.
How long does a rekeying visit take?
Most apartments take under an hour for several locks. Call (212) 300-6734 and we will give you a straight time estimate.
