Locked Out of Your Business? We're Here to Help.
Fast, reliable, and professional commercial lockout services in New York City. We’ll get you back in business in no time.
Commercial lock work is a different discipline from residential locksmith service. The hardware is heavier-duty, the security requirements are more complex, and the clients — property managers, office managers, and building owners — need a locksmith company that understands their environment and can work around business operations without disruption. Mr. Locks has been providing commercial locksmith services to NYC businesses since 2003, including Fortune 500 companies, law firms, healthcare providers, retail operators, and property management companies across all five boroughs.
Commercial Locksmith Services We Provide in NYC
Master Key Systems
A master key system creates a key hierarchy — a grandmaster key that opens everything, master keys that open a subset of locks, and individual keys that open only specific doors. We design, install, and expand master key systems for commercial buildings of all sizes across NYC. A properly designed master key system eliminates the chaos of dozens of individual keys while giving you controlled access at every level.
High-Security Lock Installation
For server rooms, executive offices, document storage, pharmacy areas, and any space where security cannot be compromised. We install and service Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA Abloy, and other leading high-security brands. These locks are pick-resistant, drill-resistant, and come with restricted key duplication so no unauthorized copies can be made.
Commercial Door Hardware
We supply and install the full range of commercial door hardware: panic bar exit devices, door closers, heavy-duty mortise locksets, cylindrical locks for commercial doors, electronic strikes, and magnetic locks. We work from our own hardware inventory and can typically complete installations same day or next day.
Commercial Lock Rekey
Employee turnover, contractor departures, and tenant changeovers all create the need for a commercial rekey. Rekeying is faster and cheaper than replacing locks and provides the same security benefit. We provide same-day and next-day commercial rekeying across NYC with volume pricing for large buildings.
Electronic and Smart Lock Installation for Business
Smart locks and keypad systems for commercial environments without the complexity of a full access control system. See our Smart Lock Installation NYC page for a full breakdown of brands and pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a commercial locksmith and a residential locksmith?
Commercial locksmiths specialize in heavier-duty hardware, more complex key systems including master key hierarchies, and the specific security requirements of commercial environments. Commercial-grade mortise locks, panic bars, and high-security cylinders are different products from residential hardware and require specialist knowledge to install and service correctly.
How long does a commercial rekey take for a 10-person office?
A standard commercial rekey for a 10-person office (typically 5-10 locks) takes approximately 1-
2 hours. We schedule commercial rekeying around your business hours and can typically
accommodate same-day or next-day appointments.
Can you design a master key system for a multi-tenant building?
Yes — this is one of our most common commercial projects. We assess the building, design a key hierarchy that gives the right access to the right people at each level, and install and key the entire system. We also provide ongoing support for adding new locks or modifying the hierarchy as tenants change.
