Explains exactly who New Yorkers should contact first when locked out of their home — including when to call a locksmith, when to try a super or building manager, and what to avoid doing so you don't damage your door or get scammed.
This is a topic our New York-based team gets asked about constantly. Below we walk through what you actually need to know, in plain language, from the perspective of locksmiths who handle these calls across the New York area every day.
If you would rather just have it handled, we are a phone call away at (646) 766-1195 — 24 hours a day. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
