A legitimate locksmith should be licensed, insured, transparent about pricing, and verifiable before any work begins.
In New York City, locksmiths are required to be licensed by the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP). You should always ask for a license number and verify it independently. A legitimate locksmith will have no issue providing this information upfront.
Be cautious of locksmiths who refuse to give a business name, quote unusually low “starting at” prices, or pressure you into unnecessary work once on site. Reputable locksmiths provide clear estimates, explain the work before starting, and operate as accountable local businesses—not anonymous dispatch services.
Professional locksmith work should not damage your door, frame, or existing security system. Our standard practice is to use non-destructive methods whenever possible and to work within the design of your existing hardware—whether residential or commercial.
In the rare event that a situation requires drilling or modification due to failed or compromised hardware, this is explained before any work begins. We are fully licensed and carry comprehensive general liability insurance, so if accidental damage were ever to occur, you’re protected.
For added peace of mind, customers may also request to be listed as an additional insured, and we can provide a certificate of insurance ACORD upon request prior to starting work.
In many cases, we can provide a general price range over the phone based on the information you share. However, a firm, final estimate is typically given after the locksmith arrives and evaluates the lock, door, hardware, or vehicle’s locks and ECU (Electronic Control Unit) condition in person.
This approach ensures accurate pricing and avoids surprises—especially in Brooklyn, where door types, lock conditions, building requirements, car keys, and lockout situations can vary widely. Any pricing is discussed and approved before work begins, so you’re never pressured into a decision.
We do not use vague “starting at” pricing. When discussing a job over the phone, we typically provide a price range over the phone, with a clear upper limit, based on the information available at the time. This ensures transparency and avoids the common bait-and-switch practice of quoting a low number with no ceiling.
Because conditions can vary and aren’t always visible over the phone, a firm, exact price is provided once the locksmith is on site and has evaluated the lock, door, hardware, or vehicle. At that point, we provide a written estimate to lock in that price before any work begins.
No additional charges are added without your approval.
Yes. We do have a service call (trip) fee, which typically ranges from $45 to $155, depending on timing and conditions.
The exact amount can vary based on factors such as daytime vs. nighttime service, whether the call is urgent or non-emergency, and unusual conditions like severe weather, heavy NYC traffic, citywide gridlock, or major events (such as marathons) that affect travel time.
We do not charge extra simply because it’s a Sunday, and we don’t apply blanket surcharges without explanation. Any applicable service call fee is clearly communicated before dispatch, so you know what to expect upfront.
Our service call fee ranges from $45 – $125 and covers the cost of dispatching a locksmith to your location, along with the initial assessment of the situation.
This includes travel time, evaluation of the lock, door, hardware, or vehicle, and a clear explanation of the work required. Once on site, you’ll receive a written estimate for the specific service needed. No work begins until pricing is reviewed and approved.
No. We do not add separate surcharges for after-hours, weekends, or holidays once service is underway.
Any timing-related considerations—such as nights or off-hours—are factored into the initial service call fee and discussed upfront. The price for the actual locksmith work remains the same, regardless of when the service is performed.
As always, pricing is clearly explained and approved before work begins, so there are no unexpected add-ons or last-minute charges.
Yes. We provide a written estimate before starting any work.
Once the locksmith evaluates the lock, door, hardware, or vehicle on site, you’ll receive a clear written estimate outlining the exact price for the approved work. That price is locked in, and no work begins until you review and authorize it.
If circumstances change unpon unforseen new discovery while the work is in progress, we stop and notify you immediately. Any changes are explained and approved before proceeding, so you remain fully in control at all times.
Yes. It’s strongly recommended to change the locks when moving into a new Brooklyn apartment.
Even if the previous tenant returned their keys, there’s no way to know how many copies were made or who may still have access—former roommates, contractors, cleaners, or neighbors. Changing the locks ensures you’re the only person with keys from day one.
In many buildings, the primary door lock may be part of a master key system, in which case rekeying or replacement should follow building guidelines. Secondary or additional locks can usually be changed without issue. If you’re unsure, checking your lease or confirming with building management is always a safe step.
In most cases, no, you do not need your landlord’s permission to change locks—unless your building management or lease agreement specifically requires it.
In many residential buildings, restrictions (if any) usually apply only to the primary entrance or bottom lock that’s part of the building’s master key system. Secondary or additional locks, such as a top lock or auxiliary deadbolt, typically do not require approval.
Because policies can vary by building and management company, we always recommend checking your lease agreement or confirming with your landlord or property manager before making changes. The same general principles apply to commercial properties, where building or master key policies may also be in place.
When you call, we’ll typically ask for just a few basic details to get started:
This information allows us to confirm availability, provide an initial price range when possible, and dispatch the right locksmith with the proper tools. If anything else is needed, we’ll explain why—nothing complicated or unnecessary.
