Lock Change Process NYC
First, we assess your current lock situation and discuss your security needs. Whether you’re dealing with a broken lock, upgrading after a break-in, or changing locks after moving into a new place, we explain your options clearly.
Next, we remove the old lock hardware carefully to avoid damaging your door or frame. We measure everything to ensure proper fit and alignment for your new lock system.
Then we install your new lock, test all functions, and provide you with all keys. We clean up completely and walk you through operating your new lock. You get a clear explanation of the work performed and any warranty information. The whole process typically takes 30-45 minutes per lock, depending on complexity.

Lock Change Options NYC
We handle standard cylinder locks, deadbolts, mortise locks, smart locks, and high-security systems. Whether you need a basic lock swap or a complete security upgrade, we stock quality hardware from trusted brands.
Lower East Side presents unique challenges—older buildings often require special techniques or custom solutions. We’ve worked on everything from 100-year-old brownstones to brand-new luxury developments. Our experience with local building types means faster, cleaner installations.
For property managers and real estate professionals, we offer keying services that work with your existing master key systems. We understand the coordination required for tenant turnover and can schedule around showing appointments or closing dates.
How much does a lock change cost in Lower East Side?
Lock change costs in Lower East Side typically range from $150 to $300 per lock, depending on the type of lock and complexity of installation. Basic residential deadbolt changes start around $150, while high-security or smart lock installations can reach $300 or more.
The final price includes both labor and hardware. We provide upfront pricing before starting work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. Emergency after-hours services may include additional fees, but we’ll always explain costs clearly before proceeding.
Factors that affect pricing include lock type, door condition, and any special requirements like matching existing hardware finishes or integrating with security systems.
How long does it take to change a lock?
Most standard lock changes take 30 to 45 minutes per lock. Simple cylinder or deadbolt swaps on standard doors are usually completed within 30 minutes. More complex installations, like mortise locks or smart lock systems, may take up to an hour.
Older Lower East Side buildings sometimes present challenges that can extend the timeline. Pre-war apartments may have non-standard door thicknesses or unusual hardware configurations that require additional time to address properly.
We work efficiently while maintaining quality. Rush jobs don’t mean sloppy work—we just focus on getting you secure again as quickly as possible without cutting corners on the installation.
Do you provide emergency lock change services?
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency lock change services throughout Lower East Side. If your lock breaks, gets damaged in a break-in attempt, or fails completely, we can respond quickly to restore your security.
Emergency situations include broken locks that won’t secure properly, locks damaged by attempted break-ins, or situations where immediate lock replacement is needed for safety reasons. We carry common lock types in our service vehicles for faster response.
While we prioritize emergency calls, we maintain the same quality standards for all installations. Emergency doesn’t mean temporary fixes—you get a proper, permanent solution that secures your property right away.
Can you change locks to match existing keys?
Yes, we can rekey new locks to work with your existing keys, or we can change multiple locks to all use the same new key. This is especially useful when you want consistent access across multiple doors without carrying numerous keys.
For property managers or landlords, we can integrate new locks into existing master key systems. This maintains your ability to access units while giving tenants their own individual keys that only work for their specific doors.
We can also create master key systems from scratch if you’re upgrading multiple locks simultaneously. This gives you administrative access while maintaining individual unit security for tenants or family members.
What types of locks do you install in Lower East Side?
We install all types of locks common in Lower East Side buildings: standard deadbolts, cylinder locks, mortise locksets, smart locks, and high-security systems. We stock hardware from major brands like Schlage, Kwikset, Medeco, and Mul-T-Lock.
For older buildings, we often work with mortise locks and Jimmy Proof deadbolts that are common in pre-war construction. For newer buildings and security upgrades, we install Grade 1 deadbolts and smart lock systems that integrate with home automation.
We can also handle specialty applications like mailbox locks, file cabinet locks, and commercial access control systems. Our goal is matching the right lock type to your specific security needs and building requirements.
Do you work with real estate agents and property managers?
Absolutely. We work regularly with real estate agents, property managers, and landlords throughout Lower East Side. We understand the timing requirements for tenant turnover, closing schedules, and property showings.
We can coordinate lock changes around your schedule, whether that means working during specific hours to avoid disrupting tenants or completing multiple units efficiently during turnover periods. We also provide keying services that maintain master key access for management while ensuring tenant security.
For real estate transactions, we can schedule lock changes to coincide with closing dates, ensuring new owners have fresh locks immediately upon taking possession. We work with your timeline, not against it.
