The Upper East Side is Manhattan’s premier residential neighborhood — prewar co-ops on Park and Fifth Avenue with board-mandated hardware requirements, limestone townhouses on the side streets with landmarked entrances, doorman buildings on Lexington and Third, and walk-ups in Yorkville’s northern blocks. Each building type requires specific hardware, specific finishes and a locksmith who understands co-op board approvals, landmark preservation requirements and the expectations of residents who will not accept generic solutions. Our team carries Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage, Yale and decorative hardware lines with multiple finish options.
For co-ops with hardware approval requirements, we carry multiple product lines and finishes to meet board specifications. All hardware is professional-grade and manufacturer-warranted. All installations meet NYC building code, fire safety and landmark preservation requirements.

For co-op buildings, we coordinate lock upgrades with board requirements and building management.
