★★★★★ 5.0 · 22 Google reviews🕒 Open 24/7📍 156 Delancey St, NYC

One master key, total control — designed for buildings and businesses. Times Square landlords and supers rely on clean master-key hierarchies across multi-unit buildings — we design and maintain them.

Between Times Square and Broadway and 7th Ave, Times Square packs a lot of doors into a few blocks. Retail flagships, hotels, and offices; commercial and after-hours emergency work dominates.

The crossroads of the world means constant foot traffic, flagship retail, and hotels — and a steady stream of commercial lock emergencies. Our 24/7 dispatch covers Times Square businesses around the clock. When it comes to master key systems, that local character matters.

Common master key systems situations in Times Square

  • Rental turnovers where every lock should be reset before the new tenant's first night.
  • Fire-escape-adjacent windows and rear entries that need secondary security attention.
  • Renovated units where new doors meet old frames and nothing quite lines up.
  • Doorman-building service entrances with heavy daily key traffic.

Tips for Times Square residents

  • If a door needs a shove to lock, the strike is misaligned — get it adjusted before the bolt wears out.
  • Test every new key in the actual lock before the technician leaves.
  • For buildings with a super, introduce yourself early — they're your fastest lockout backup.
  • Replace builder-grade locks in new construction within the first month.
