A step-by-step guide for New Yorkers on exactly what to do when locked out of a doorman-free apartment building late at night, including who to call, what to expect, and how to stay safe while you wait.
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) 849-8549 — 24 hours a day. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
