Protecting Brooklyn Homes, One Lock at a Time
Your home is your sanctuary. Whether you live in a classic Brownstone in Park Slope, a detached house in Marine Park, or an apartment in Flatbush, you need to know your locks are secure.
Eddie and Sons Locksmith is a family-owned business based in Midwood (11230). We don’t just change locks; we provide peace of mind. Our vans are stocked with top-rated hardware (Schlage, Medeco, Mul-T-Lock) to handle any security need on the spot.
Lock Change & Installation
Moving into a new home? Old locks sticking or rusted? We install and upgrade all types of residential hardware.
Deadbolt Installation: Heavy-duty deadbolts are your first line of defense. We install Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks resistant to kicking and drilling.
High-Security Locks: We are authorized dealers for Mul-T-Lock and Medeco. These cylinders are pick-proof, drill-proof, and offer key control (no one can copy your key without ID).
Decorative Hardware: Handle sets and mortise locks that match the style of your Brooklyn home.
Looking for extra protection for your jewelry and documents? We also specialize in Safe Installation & Cracking.
Rekeying Services (Don't Replace, Rekey!)
Did you know? You don’t always need to buy new locks. If your locks are in good condition but you want to change the key (e.g., lost keys, new tenant, ex-roommate), we can Rekey them.
How it works: We change the internal pins of the cylinder so the old key no longer works, and issue you a new set.
Cost-Effective: Rekeying is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire hardware.
Master Key Systems: For landlords and multi-family homes, we can set up a master key that opens all doors while tenants only open their own.

Residential FAQ
Should I rekey my locks or change them?
If the lock mechanism is working well and you like the style, rekeying is the better, cheaper option. If the lock is old, rusted, or feels loose, we recommend changing it to a new, more secure model.
How much does a locksmith cost in Brooklyn?
Prices vary based on the service (lockout vs. installation) and the type of lock hardware chosen. However, as a local Midwood business, our rates are competitive and transparent. We provide an upfront estimate before starting any work.
Can you open a high-security lock like Mul-T-Lock?
High-security locks are designed to be impossible to pick. If you are locked out of a Mul-T-Lock, we may need to drill the cylinder to gain entry, but we can immediately replace it with a new one on the spot.
Do you service apartment buildings?
Yes. We work with landlords and management companies in Brooklyn to handle tenant turnover rekeying, mailbox locks, and buzzer system repairs.
