Last evening we fixed an aluminum glass door (Yes, it was really cold), the door fell of the top hinge because the bottom hinge broke completely.
At Metro Locksmith we specialize in glass doors as well as hardware for glass doors.

On this particular door we had to cut off the existing hinges off the bracket and install a new per of Jet exterior hinges and adjust the door closer to fit with the new hinges.
Then we had to reinstall the door back on the frame.

The end result was great!

The door and frame are straight and the door closes properly.

Walking around with a bunch of keys all day long makes it very easy to loose your keys, or at least some of it.

It’s New York, lets face it, a copy of your key is probably floating around somewhere with someone, the management company, the landlord, the construction company and god knows who else.

An easy way to eliminate some of those jiggling keys out of your life would be to install an electronic lock with a digital keypad that uses a code for access control instead of the actual key.

Only those who have the code can open the door, you don’t have to leave keys under the mat anymore or chase people down to get your keys back from them.

Electronic deadbolt with a digital keypad

At Metro Local Locksmith we specialize in electronic deadbolts and digital access control, it’s easier than you think, you too can have a lock with a digital keypad that eliminate the need of a key all together.

Although it doesn’t take a key to unlock the door, only the access code, there’s still a key as an emergency option to override the code in case you forgot it or if the battery dies.

A lot of locksmith companies in New York City would offer a verity of electronic deadbolts and digital keypads, it is important to choose the right one though, you don’t want to go with a locksmith company who can’t get it done the right way, the first time.

In a sea of craziness and dishonesty, Metro Locksmith is a light house of professionalism, honesty and transparency.

Our online reputation is stellar and our Yelp reviews are one of the strongest testimonies of our character and craftsmanship.

So when ever you’re ready to move forward with your electronic lock installation and join us in 2017 where keys are no longer needed give us a call at Metro Local Locksmith and one of our technicians will be there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to provide you with a free estimate of your new digital keypad deadbolt lock.

Dear New York city young people, please read this post very carefully before calling an Emergency Locksmith in NYC.

You wouldn’t believe the shit show and the amount of dishonest locksmith companies out there.

From super shady call centers out of the country to random stickers and business cards on your building’s door or intercom unit, this city is filled with super random and not so honest locksmith companies.

Scam Alert!
Be Vey Careful Who You Call.

It got so bad that it’s literally almost impossible to separate the good guys from the bed ones.

Luckily we’ve got five easy steps in order to help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

So you probably ask your self, “What do I do if I get locked out and need a 24 hours locksmith?”   Well, there are a few things you can do in order to minimize the risk:

Step number one:   Ask every single question you can think of on the phone before you give the locksmith company your address, an honest locksmith would answer all your questions over the phone and would give you solid flat fee prices for any specific service, not just *starting prices or *minimum prices, an honest locksmith would give you the company’s name and address, he would give you the tech’s name and the license number if necessary.

Step number two:   After you have all the information go online (if you don’t have web access or a smart phone use a friend’s or a neighbor’s) and research some of the information you got, if the company doesn’t exist on Google Maps (like we do) or on Yelp (again, like we do) that’s a tale tale for bad news, if it does exist but has horrible reviews on Yelp, than again maybe you should use another company.

people love us on Yelp!

Step number three:   When you get the tech on site make sure that the information is similar to what you’ve got on the phone and online, the company’s name, phone number, website and address should be the same, the tech needs to know the company’s name as well, if any of these isn’t the same, something is wrong.

Step number four:   Make sure the locksmith gives you the whole shpill, you need to know everything you’re about to pay for before the guy does anything, I mean the whole 9 yards, if any of the prices aren’t matching what you’ve got on the phone you need to know that ahead of time, the price may change a bit and that’s fine, maybe you have a high security lock that can’t be picked, maybe it’s a different key for your car because you got the year, make and model wrong, things can change and that’s ok.

Step number five:   Payment and warranty, make sure what form of payment the company accepts, nowadays credit cards should be an acceptable form of payment almost anywhere any time, cash and checks may not be accepted by some companies so find out in advance, unless you want to make a late night trip to the ATM.                               Warranty should be included in the price for both parts and labor, a 90 day warranty should be standard though most honest companies (us included) would provide you with a 6-12 month warranty for both parts and labor.

Glass doors can be freaky.

Sometimes a glass door needs to be removed for the hardware on the door to be replaced, Door closers may be on top or on the bottom, visible or concealed in the cement under the door saddle.

Locks and other hardware may also require the removal of the door in some cases.

We love helping out our Upper West Side neighbors @ Joe & the Juice with their Columbus Ave location (247 Columbus Ave).
We had to remove and reinstall the store front glass door in order to gain access and replace the door closer that was buried under the cement floor.

Every couple of years the NY Times does a piece about the subject.

Every time this issue surfaces we see the same reactions:

Google has been doing a good job trying to keep the fraudulent locksmiths to a minimum.

This phenomenon isn’t just going to go away on it’s own, so buyer be ware:

Always double check on Yelp.com that the said business is legit, has been around long enough and has reviews from multiple users. ( you’re looking for a 4 stars average as a minimum ), most local businesses will be displayed on Yelp.

Check for a locksmith license and make sure the address on the invoice matches the name and address on the company’s website or ad.

(local companies would have the address displayed on the vehicle in most cases).

Check out our Yelp page with 5 star review average!

Take a few minutes to read the Times article on the subject.

Imagine you’re traveling in your car on the NY thruway heading north out of the city going upstate for the weekend.

No worries just the open road, trees and sunshine.

You make a quick pit stop for gas and some snacks and BOOM you realize you’ve lost your car keys ( and its’s a rental on top of everything else ), now what ???    you’re stranded on the side of the road ( or the side of the gas pump ), panicking, you’re slowly but surly begin to realize that this short pit stop is about to get much longer and much more expensive than you’ve originally planned.

Sure enough you’ve stopped crying and decided to take your own future, and weekend in your own hands ( good on ya! ) you reach in your pocket, grab your phone and login to google or yelp, you search for a roadside assistance locksmith company that serves the greater NY area and operates 24/7.

After calling a bunch of companies you’re getting a little frustrated because some of them don’t pickup their phones and others can’t make your car key because lets face it your new rental ain’t  exactly the easiest car key to make.

Luckily you’ve stumbled upon metro locksmith‘s auto locksmith and roadside assistance website.

We are able to come over, cut and program you a new smart key or transponder key ( more than one if you wish ), on the spot and have you smiling and on you’re way within an hour or so ( depending on location and distance from the city ).
