• How fast can you respond to a lockout emergency? We know you are in a stressful situation, so we prioritize emergency lockouts above all routine maintenance appointments. In most areas of Manhattan, NY, we aim to have a technician at your door within 20 to 30 minutes, depending on local traffic conditions.
• Will picking my lock weaken the internal springs? No. Professional lock picking simply mimics the exact mechanical action of your original key. It causes absolutely zero damage, weakness, or wear to the internal springs and pins.
• What if I have a chain lock or swing bar engaged on the inside of the door? This is a very common scenario when a child accidentally locks a door from the inside or a resident slips out a side door. We carry specialized, non-destructive manipulation tools designed specifically to bypass interior swing bars and chain locks from the exterior without breaking the door frame.
• Do I need to prove that I live at the house or own the car? Yes. To protect the public and adhere to strict liability standards, we require a photo ID matching the service address or vehicle registration, or alternative proof of residency (like a digital lease on your phone) before we will bypass any lock.
