Mr. Locks runs a street-level shop at 400 2nd Ave near Kips Bay and Gramercy, and says it has been in business since 2003. Google shows 4.8 stars from 1,003 reviews, read 2026-10-29. The company is licensed, bonded and insured by its own account, and it covers Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island.

Walk-in key cutting is available at the shop, and the Google photos show a full key counter. One thing to know first: the phone number on Google, the one on the website and the one on the shop sign all differ.

Company Background

About Mr. Locks

Mr. Locks is a storefront locksmith at 400 2nd Ave, on the east side of Manhattan near Kips Bay and Gramercy. The website says the company was established in 2003 and serves commercial and residential customers in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Google shows 4.8 stars from 1,003 reviews, read 2026-10-29, and the shop is listed as open 24 hours.

The work mix leans commercial. The company says it installs and repairs door hardware including electronic keyless locks, deadbolts, high-security locks, mortise locks, door closers and panic bar exit devices, and that it supplies and installs safes, gates, doors, fire escapes and window bars. Its client list on the website includes property firms such as Tishman Speyer. For households there is lockout help, lock changes and key cutting, and the Google photos show a shop floor with a long key counter and wall displays of hardware, plus door hardware jobs including a panic bar and a keypad lock.

The company says it is licensed, bonded and insured and offers 24 hour emergency service including weekends and holidays. Customer reviews shown on its website describe fast service, a spare key cut at the counter, and a locksmith who arrived on time and tested the lock before leaving.

There is one detail worth checking. Google lists (212) 780-0111, the website lists 212-780-0144, and the sign over the shop in the Google photos shows a third number. Use the number on the website or call the shop to confirm you have reached the real business before sending anyone to your door.

Who it suits: building managers and tenants who need commercial hardware installed or repaired, and anyone near Second Avenue who wants a walk-in counter. Who it suits less well: someone who wants a single published phone line and a named technician.

What to ask before booking: the full price including the service call, whether entry will be non-destructive, how the technician will identify themselves, the warranty on parts and labour, and the technician's New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection locksmith licence number.

Mr. Locks FAQs

  • Is Mr. Locks a licensed locksmith in NYC?

    Mr. Locks says it is licensed, bonded and insured, but it publishes no licence number. New York City locksmiths must be licensed by the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, so ask for the number and check it with the city before the work begins.

  • Is Mr. Locks open 24 hours for lockouts?

    Yes. Google lists Mr. Locks as open 24 hours every day, and the website says emergency service is available on weekends and holidays. The shop is at 400 2nd Ave. Because three different phone numbers appear online, confirm the number with the shop first.

  • Which boroughs does Mr. Locks serve?

    The website says Mr. Locks serves Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. The shop is at 400 2nd Ave, and the company lists commercial and residential door hardware, safes, gates and window bars among its services.

  • Is Mr. Locks licensed and insured?

    We checked 0 of 1 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.

  • What areas does Mr. Locks serve?

    New York. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.

  • Does Mr. Locks offer emergency service?

    Yes, the company lists emergency availability. Response time depends on demand, and after a storm every company in the market is stretched.

  • What warranty do they offer?

    Warranty terms are not on file. Ask for them in writing before work starts.

  • How was this profile built?

    Credentials come from issuing authorities, ratings from the company's Google Business Profile with the date we read them, and the editorial take from our own review of estimates, warranty documents and public feedback. Anything the business told us is labelled as reported.

  • Can a business pay to improve its profile?

    A business can subscribe to manage its own listing details, and it can buy a labelled sponsored placement. Neither changes a ranking position or the editorial assessment on this page.
