About Avenue Locksmith — Brooklyn's Local Locksmith Team
We're not a franchise. We're not a call center. We're a Brooklyn-based team of licensed locksmiths serving our neighbors across NYC.
Who We Are
Avenue Locksmith was founded in 2010 with a straightforward goal: give Brooklyn residents and business owners access to a locksmith they could genuinely trust. At the time, the market was dominated by national aggregators — companies that take your call, charge inflated prices, and send out whoever is available. We wanted to be different.
We started with a single truck and a commitment to three things: showing up fast, charging a fair price quoted before the work begins, and doing the job right. That reputation spread through neighborhoods one satisfied customer at a time — from Park Slope to Bay Ridge, Williamsburg to Canarsie.
Today, Avenue Locksmith serves all five NYC boroughs with a team of fully licensed, bonded, and insured locksmiths. We handle everything from apartment lockouts and deadbolt installations to commercial access control systems and automotive key programming. But our roots are here in Brooklyn, and that community-first mindset drives everything we do.
Every price is quoted before the tech heads out, every invoice is itemized, and our technicians are vetted, licensed Brooklyn locksmiths — not subcontractors from a referral network. If the price at the door doesn't match the quote on the phone, the job ends there and nothing is owed.
What Makes Avenue Locksmith Different
There are a lot of locksmiths in Brooklyn. Here is why our customers call us back — and refer us to their neighbors.
Not a Franchise or Call Center
Many "locksmith companies" in NYC are national aggregators that take your call and dispatch an unknown contractor. When you call Avenue Locksmith, an Avenue Locksmith technician shows up — someone we trained, vetted, and stand behind.
Transparent Pricing, Always
We quote the full price before we begin any work. No hidden trip fees, no surprise charges after the job is done. You know the cost upfront — period.
Genuine Local Accountability
We live and work in the same communities we serve. Our reputation is built on word-of-mouth from Brooklyn neighbors. That accountability drives everything we do.
Every Technician Is Vetted
Every Avenue Locksmith technician is thoroughly background-checked, trained, and certified before entering a customer's home or business. You will never wonder who is at your door.
