Locksmith Westchester Square, Bronx NY

Closing time at the Square, the register is counted, and the front door lock will not throw the bolt.
Westchester Square has been a market crossroads for three centuries, and the blocks around Owen Dolen Park still run on small storefronts, medical offices and apartments above the shops.
Which means when a lock fails here, it usually fails on somebody’s livelihood.

What we handle around the Square:

• Storefront doors, deadlatches and roll-down gates, before opening or after closing
• Panic bars and exit devices kept legal and working
• Medical and professional office locks, from the front door to the file room
• Cabinet and drawer locks for records and supplies
• Apartment lockouts above the shops and on the side streets, any hour
• Rekeys when staff change, done the same day keys go missing
• Mailbox and building entry locks on Lane and Glebe Avenues
• Car lockouts by the 6 train and the Montefiore Westchester Square campus
• Price confirmed by phone before the technician heads out
• Typical arrival 25 to 35 minutes, depending on traffic

Westchester Square Locksmith FAQ: Storefronts, Offices and the Blocks Above Them

The panic bar on my shop’s back door sticks. Can I just chain the door shut?

No, and please do not. In NYC a required exit has to open in one motion from the inside, no key, no chain, or you are looking at a violation and a real danger to everyone in the store. A sticking panic bar is usually a worn latch or a misaligned strike, both fixable in one visit. We repair or replace exit devices so the door stays secure from outside and legal from inside.

A staff member left and did not return the keys. How fast can the office be rekeyed?

Same day, and usually in one visit. We re-pin the front door, the office and the storage room to a new key while you keep working, and the old keys die the moment we finish. If different people need different access, we can set up a small master system at the same time, so the next departure costs you one cylinder change instead of a full panic.

Can you put locks on cabinets where we keep records and medication?

Yes. File cabinets, supply drawers and medication storage in the offices around the Montefiore Westchester Square campus all take proper cam or drawer locks, and most install in minutes without damaging the furniture. We can key them separately from the entry doors, so front-desk keys open the office but not the records.

I live above a store. Are window gates on my apartment legal?

Yes, if they are the approved type that opens from the inside without a key. Fixed bars or a padlocked gate on a fire escape window are illegal in NYC and dangerous in a fire. We install approved release gates and service the ones that have rusted shut, which on the busy blocks around the Square is worth checking before winter.

How much does a locksmith cost in Westchester Square?

The price depends on the lock, the door and the time of day, and night calls cost more than daytime ones. One thing is fixed: you get the number by phone before a technician leaves, and it does not grow at your door. Current rates are listed on our Locksmith Prices in Bronx NY page.
