My wife's bag was stolen with her keys and ID. I needed to change the locks TODAY. I was actually referred to Miguel's by a locksmith in my immediate neighborhood, that locksmith couldn't come by till 4 days. Miguel was super helpful and understanding and had someone at my place in a half hour. The job was done quickly and the locksmith who came was very nice and professional and everything works great. Highly recommended. read more

They came when they said they would and got the job done fast, professionally, and for a reasonable price. Pure gold in terms of NYC locksmiths. read more

I have an odd european lock on my door and the key stopped turning. After calling a few folks I was sent here. Upon calling they had someone come out within an hour. They took out the cylinder, found a broken pin, took the cylinder back to their shop to replace it (the broken pin was smaller than any of the thousands they carry with them), brought it back an hour later along with 10 new keys. They also re-keyed the 2 other locks in the house to match the same new keys (which required raiding an old lock cylinder they had for another pin to fix one of the locks (it goes to the roof door so we never really lock it with a key from the outside). They did all this for $191 so consider me a happy customer. (The 4 stars instead of 5 is because the keys stick just ever so slightly when you try to pull them out. They claim this will pass as the keys get used. If so, I'll come back and update this review.) read more

The problem I had was a little trickier than we thought but they got creative and fixed it...without charging extra. And they had the best price of the three locksmiths that I called in the area. Honest, on time, good service. Highly recommend. read more

Miguel's are my go to locksmith for big and small projects. They installed a new (complicated) door knob for me this week, and spent the extra time to grind down the exterior metal door so it closed more smoothly at no additional charge. They are easy to make appointments with and reasonably priced. I recommend them everyone ! read more

Working hours listed at 9 am - 6 pm but store doesn't open until employees show up. Two mornings in a row I wasted my time waiting for them to open. Why set hours you can't keep to? read more

I had a very positive experience with Miguel's changing out several locks on an apartment and rekeying several other locks. I had a short window of available time and Andy came over when scheduled, assessed the situation and returned to install everything just as I wanted within a few hours. He was super professional and everything looks and works great. read more

Our brownstone front key was taken and we needed to replace the locks in December. Miguel's came promptly, did a professional job and created extra keys. We found we could not lock our door yesterday and thought it was a problem with the new lock cylinder and called them. It turns out it was not the lock work they had recently done, but something minor, fixed it free of charge. They are a class operation. read more

This guy was great, think I finally found an honest locksmith in Bushwick at last yes! My front door lock was quite a mess deadbolt totally fell out as did a few screws - old and sketchy, all kind of bent and broken parts and the guy could easily have ripped me off and charged me service fee + $300-450 for a new lock as so many con artist locksmiths do and I have had happen in this neighborhood before, but Miguel's repairman was a trooper took the entire thing apart and put it back together like new only cost me $95 for the service fee, extremely reasonable as it was not an easy job and took q while, and at 8pm on a Sat. night. Can't recommend this company enough, truly excellent service put their # in your phone. :) read more

Way overpriced. $240 for 10 seconds of work getting me back into my apartment.

Miguel is 11 on a scale of one to ten. He's honest and very decent person to deal with.

I needed a lock for an internal door at home. I read the positive reviews on Yelp so I decided to go here. The woman in the store was very friendly and helpful. She showed me how to disassemble and reassemble a particular lock. After describing my door in detail, she assured me that I would be able to install it in no time. I wanted to be sure about that, as the sale of the lock I was about to buy was final (no return). I decided to buy it. Back home, it very quickly became clear that I could not install it myself. I called the store and asked whether they could come over to install it for me. Over the phone, they told me it would cost 65 to 75 dollars. I had them come over. First, I was told that they were unable to install the lock that I had purchased in their store. Then they wanted to charge me no less than 95 dollars to install a different, cheap-looking lock instead. I refused and after some negotiations I reluctantly agreed to have the cheap-looking lock installed for 85 dollars. On top of this, I am still left with the lock that I purchased in the store. It's very disappointing to be charged much more than we had agreed on. read more

Just called this place, and had a great experience. Someone was able to come within the hour, and when he did, he changed the lock quickly and with no complications or drama. Also, the quoted price was exactly what was charged, and at the same rate as other companies I called that had long waits to make an appointment. This might not sound like much to comment on, but these days I feel like fast, efficient and truthful service is something to be praised... especially when it comes from a local business. Thanks for making a stressful situation as pain free as possible! read more

I went to Miguel to program and cut a car key. He programmed the key fob but screwed up cutting the key, making it useless. Instead of replacing the key or discounting the damage he caused, he charged me$75.00. He said that price was a discount, even though that was the price he quoted me before starting the job. The dealer charges $55.00 dollars, so much for neighborhood convenience. read more

My landlord hadn't provided a mailbox key after three weeks of living in my new apartment. Miguel locksmith were there within an hour, changed the lock at a very reasonable price, and the locksmith was very professional and efficient. Definitely recommend them. read more

When my key broke off in my apartment lock, they came right away and were incredibly efficient. A short time later the key was out and my lock was restored. Friendly and cost less than other companies I called so I highly recommend them read more

They are true to their reputation. They came within an hour, were patient, informative and professional, and reasonably priced.

We called Miguel's when we realized our apartment lock was busted. We were worried we'd be stuck in our apartment all weekend, but they had it fixed within 40 minutes of the call! Fast, skilled and courteous service, and very reasonably priced. read more

Very happy with Andy from Miguel's Locksmith. Andy changed 3 cylinders and installed a J-bar in our building. I felt like he made good suggestions, rather than try to up-sell. He was informative, polite, and worked carefully. He also made some extra adjustments free of charge. I would not hesitate to call this company again. read more

We just used Miguel Locksmith today to change the lock for our new apartment. I set up an appointment within the hour and a locksmith showed up right on time. The charge was exactly what they said it would be on the phone. They take cash, checks or credit cards. So many friends and family members have had issues with sketchy locksmiths in the past, so I'm happy to have someone we can trust in our new neighborhood. read more

Fantastic service. Feels small-town friendly here. Good prices. Super trustworthy. So lucky to have this in the neighborhood.

I was a bit annoyed when the technician arrived about an hour late. However, upon arrival, he was very expedient and quickly changed two cylinder locks for $75 each. Paid in cash. read more

this place was prefect. fast friendly and painless.

Miguel and his employees are the most honest locksmiths I have ever encountered. They were my go to place when the were in North Slope so it was sad to see that they moved to South Slope. However, wherever you are coming from it is worth the trip to this full service business. Highly recommended. read more

Had to get 2 medeco cylinders rekeyed. Friendly, good price; got it done on the spot.

I moved to the area about 9 years ago and at first got ripped off by various locksmiths but these guys have taken care of us really well. We we are locked out, keys stuck in doors, to replacing security locks, they are always quick, helpful and reasonably priced. read more

The service from this business was great. We needed new locks throughout a whole brownstone, so it was a pretty big job. Miguel came over when he said he would and gave us an estimate that was lower than what we had gotten from two other locksmiths. Of the three, Miguel's was the only one that was prompt, the only one that got back to me with an estimate in a timely fashion, and the only one that gave me a detailed breakdown of the estimate. He came, installed the locks, and everything works fine. Since then, we've needed extra keys, and had another, smaller job that they accomplished efficiently and at a reasonable cost. I would recommend this business to anyone. read more

Easy, cheap, accurate quote over the phone. Same day service, within 3 hrs. Guy on the phone and the serviceman were both really nice, and reassuring about my safety (given that I was being harassed by another company). Job done super quickly and perfectly. Thank you!! read more
