Testimonials
We Are Trusted Over 40 Years
Golden Key Locksmith NYC combines 40+ years of experience with a personal touch for every house lockout service call.
Thanks to Steve for sending Lou and Jack to repair our deadbolt. Arriving on time and with all the tools and parts potentially needed to repair the problem, everyone was professional and efficient.
We had ongoing drafts coming through our revolving door in Tribeca. Kenny replaced the worn weather stripping and made a few adjustments — the difference was noticeable immediately.

(212) 204-1655
Call Golden Key Locksmith NYC at (212) 204-1655 — we're available 24/7 and respond within 20–35 minutes anywhere in New York City. Do not attempt to force a window or door open yourself, as this risks injury and property damage. Our locksmiths can open virtually any residential lock non-destructively. If you're in an unsafe situation, call 911 first, then call us.
In almost all cases, no. Our locksmiths use non-destructive entry techniques — lock picking, bypass, or shimming — that open your door without any damage to the lock or door frame. Destructive entry (drilling) is a last resort used only when a lock is damaged beyond repair or picking is not possible. We will always tell you upfront if the situation requires it.
It depends on how the lockout happened. If you lost your keys, rekeying or replacing the locks is strongly recommended since you don't know who may have found them. If you simply forgot your keys inside, there's no security risk and no change is needed. Our locksmiths can rekey your locks immediately after the lockout for added peace of mind — it's quick and cost-effective.

A faulty Von Duprin panic bar in Gramercy was replaced by Golden Key Locksmith NYC the same day. Great response time.
