Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you get to Vinegar Hill?
Very quickly — we're based in DUMBO, a few blocks away. Call (718) 737-6197 and we'll give you a real-time arrival estimate.
My house is in a historic district. Can you still change the locks?
Yes. Lock changes inside your home don't affect the historic exterior, and we keep new hardware sympathetic to the building's character.
Should I rekey or replace locks when I move in?
Rekeying is usually enough — it changes the key combination so old keys stop working, without replacing the whole lock. We'll inspect your locks and advise.
Do you work on commercial spaces near the Navy Yard?
Yes — we service offices and workshops around the Navy Yard with commercial-grade locks, master key systems, and access control.
