Locked Out of Your Home or Apartment?
If you cannot get into your home, apartment, or building, tell us where you are and what the lock is doing. Different doors use different hardware, so details about the key, lock, and entry door help us understand what kind of assistance may be needed. If you rent or live in a managed building, check whether the landlord or building manager needs to approve access or hardware work.
For residential lock changes, rekeying, and other home security needs, see our Residential Locksmith page.
Business and Storefront Lockouts
A locked office or storefront can disrupt normal operations. When requesting help, describe the entry door, the lock or exit hardware, and any issue that prevents the door from opening or securing. We can discuss available service and options for restoring access and addressing the lock problem.
For ongoing commercial lock, rekeying, and master key needs, visit Commercial Locksmith. For storefront and other commercial door repairs, see Commercial Doors.
Broken Keys, Jammed Locks, and Damage
A key that breaks in a cylinder or a lock that suddenly stops working may need a different approach from a simple lockout. Avoid forcing the key or door, since extra pressure can make the problem worse. Tell us what happened and whether the key is still in the lock. We can assess the hardware and discuss repair or replacement options.
Lost Keys or an Urgent Security Concern
If keys are lost, stolen, or no longer accounted for, the next step depends on which doors they may open and the type and condition of the locks. Rekeying may work with compatible hardware; a damaged or unsuitable lock may need replacement. Share what you know about the keys and affected doors so we can discuss a practical way to restore control of access.
If there is immediate danger or a medical emergency, contact emergency services first. If a door or lock has been damaged, describe the condition when you call so we can discuss how to secure the opening.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I tell you when I call about a lockout?
Share your New York City location, whether it is a home, apartment, office, or storefront, and what the lock or door is doing. Mention a broken key, visible damage, building access instructions, or any urgent safety concern.
Can you help if my key broke inside the lock?
We can discuss the lock and key problem and available service. Avoid pushing the broken piece farther into the cylinder or using force; describe what happened when you call.
Can a lock be rekeyed after I lose a key?
Rekeying may be an option if the existing lock is compatible and in suitable condition. We can review the lock and explain whether rekeying or replacement fits the situation.
What if my door was damaged or will not secure?
Tell us what is damaged and whether the door can close and latch. The lock, frame, hinges, or other door hardware may need attention. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact emergency services first.
