Your front door is the one piece of security you use every single day, and in New York it takes a beating. Same Day Locksmith works out of 66-14 Fresh Pond Rd, Queens, NY 11385 and covers houses, walk-ups, co-ops and rental buildings across Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan and Staten Island. We open doors without destroying them, change and rekey locks the same day, and upgrade weak hardware to something that actually resists a shoulder.

Grade 1 and Grade 2 deadbolts, keypad and smart locks, mortise cylinders and matching lever sets. We carry the stock on the van, so the door is locked and working before we leave - no return trip, no plywood over your entry.
Door slammed behind you, key snapped in the cylinder, or the lock simply stopped turning. We open residential doors non-destructively in the vast majority of cases - picking, decoding or bypassing rather than drilling. If a lock is already damaged or is a high-security cylinder that cannot be picked safely, we tell you the cost of replacement before we touch it. Walk-ups, two-family homes, co-ops, condos and doorman buildings all handled, day or night.
A lock change gives you brand-new hardware; a rekey keeps the hardware and changes the pins so old keys stop working. Rekeying is the cheaper choice after a roommate moves out, a tenant leaves, a contractor finishes, or a relationship ends. We can also key several doors alike so one key opens the front door, back door and basement.
Grade 1 deadbolts, reinforced strike plates, longer screws into the stud, anti-drill and anti-pick cylinders, and bump-resistant hardware from brands like Medeco, Mul-T-Lock and Abloy. In older NYC housing stock the door frame is usually the weak point, so we reinforce it rather than just swapping the lock.
Keypad deadbolts, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth smart locks, and code-based entry for Airbnb and rental units. We check door thickness, backset and alignment first, install correctly so the bolt fully throws, and set up user codes and a physical backup key.
Cluster mailbox locks, individual mailbox cylinders, file cabinets, closets, interior privacy locks, sliding-door and patio-door locks, window locks and child-safety hardware.
Turnover packages for landlords and property managers: rekey between tenants, master key systems so you carry one key for the building, eviction lock changes with proper documentation, and bulk pricing on multi-unit work.
