Kips Bay is a residential neighborhood anchored by large postwar apartment complexes, prewar walk-ups, medical offices and the NYU Langone corridor.

Our team carries Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage and Yale hardware for residential work and commercial-grade products for the medical, office and retail properties that serve the neighborhood.
Every Golden Key technician is trained, licensed and background-checked. Kips Bay landlords, building managers, medical office administrators and residents trust us with property access — forty years of professional, insured locksmith service in a neighborhood where consistent, reliable work matters more than advertising.

Great peace of mind knowing my home is secure again.Posted on Fred HardtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed to upgrade the security for our small office in Manhattan. The team was fantastic—they installed heavy-duty commercial locks and set up a master key system for us. They worked quietly and didn't disrupt our business hours. Very impressed with their expertise.Posted on Bobbi AmesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Testimonials
We Are Trusted Over 40 Years
Licensed locksmith service in Kips Bay since 1984 — protecting east side Manhattan homes, offices and medical facilities for four decades. Golden Key: Kips Bay’s trusted locksmith.
Needed urgent lock change for our DUMBO store. They used Mul-T-Lock cylinders for extra security. Highly recommend.
Kenny replaced weatherstripping on a revolving door at our Upper West Side building. Immediate improvement. The lobby feels like it's summer again during the dead of winter.

Mark came to our apartment after we couldn't lock the door. He replaced the internal cylinder and made it safer with a Mul-T-Lock upgrade.
