Off the Metro-North after a long day, up the hill, and the keys are still on your desk in Manhattan?
Or the lock on a Kappock Street tower apartment has been turning stiffly for months, and tonight it finally would not turn at all.
Spuyten Duyvil sits on a quiet hill, but lock trouble finds its way up here too.

An evening lockout call came in from a customer near Kappock Street. The technician checked the door, used a careful entry method when possible, and helped restore access without unnecessary damage.
A move-in customer in Spuyten Duyvil wanted old keys disabled without changing every lock. The existing hardware was inspected, a rekey was completed, and the locks were tested before the job was finished.
A customer near Johnson Avenue needed help with a lock that was becoming unreliable. The hardware was checked, the problem was corrected when possible, and the door was tested before the technician left.
Often yes, so check your proprietary lease or house rules before any hardware change. Many co-ops on Kappock Street and Palisade Avenue require the same lock style across the building, and some want a key on file with management. We work within those rules: rekeying usually keeps the approved hardware, and we can match a replacement to what the building allows.
Usually it can be fixed. A cylinder that turns stiffly is typically worn pins or a dry mechanism, not a dead lock, and buildings from the 60s and 70s carry hardware that was built to be serviced. We take it apart, clean and re-pin it, and only quote a replacement when the metal itself is worn out. Do not wait for the night it stops turning completely.
Yes, on the spot. Our technicians carry key machines in the van, so spares for a home aide, an adult child or a neighbor who checks in can be cut during the same visit. If your building uses a restricted key that cannot be copied without authorization, we will tell you exactly who has to approve the copy and how that works.
Yes. Spuyten Duyvil is one of the closest Bronx neighborhoods to our Yonkers base, so a night lockout here does not mean waiting until morning. Typical arrival is 20 to 30 minutes. Have photo ID and something with your address ready, because we verify residency before opening any door.
The price depends on the lock, the door and the time of day, and night calls cost more than daytime ones. What stays fixed: we confirm the number by phone before a technician leaves, and it does not change at your door. Current rates are listed on our Locksmith Prices in Bronx NY page.
The hill is quiet, the trains run on time, and lock trouble still picks the worst evening. Whether it is a tower apartment on Kappock Street, a house on Independence Avenue, or a car parked by the station, Locksmith Yonkers NY is minutes away across the city line.
