Home Locksmith & Lock Changes in Prospect Park South
When you move into a new place or worry about who has old keys, you’ve got two main options: rekeying locks or changing locks completely. I walk you through both on-site with clear pricing, so you pick what works for your home and budget. Rekeying is faster and cheaper if your hardware is solid-I swap the cylinder pins so old keys won’t work. Replacing means new deadbolts, handles, or full locksets, which I recommend when locks are worn, damaged, or you want a security upgrade locks setup.
I handle all home locksmith work in Prospect Park South: residential lockout service, installing new locks, deadbolt install or deadbolt swap, smart lock setup, mailbox lock change, window lock fix, and rekey after moving. If you’re locked out, I check your ID before I let you in-it’s standard practice, and it protects you and your neighbors. For planned jobs like new home lock installation, I bring options in a range of prices and explain what extra security features actually matter for Brooklyn brownstones and walk-ups.

| Best when: Hardware is in good shape, you just need new keys | Best when: Lock is broken, old, or you want upgraded security features |
| Cost: $35-$50 per lock (labor only) | Cost: $50+ labor plus new lock hardware |
| Speed: 10-15 minutes per lock | Speed: 20-30 minutes per lock |

Before You Call: Home Lock Issues in Prospect Park South
Check these first to save a service call:
- Try graphite powder or dry silicone spray if the key sticks-don’t use WD-40, it gums up over time
- Make sure the door isn’t sagging-if the latch won’t catch, the frame may have shifted
- Check that the key you’re using isn’t a worn copy-test the original if you have it
- Look for ice or debris in the lock cylinder during winter months
- If the lock turns but won’t open, the latch or bolt may be misaligned-don’t force it, call me
