Nyack is the one town in Rockland where the age of the housing genuinely changes the job. A lot of the village predates modern lock standards, and a locksmith who only carries residential cylinders is going to struggle on a Broadway Victorian.

TrustKey is a mobile locksmith serving Nyack, a village on the Hudson River in Rockland County. There is no shop to drive to — the van comes to you.
The village has a substantial stock of 19th-century and early 20th-century houses — the Edward Hopper House dates to 1858, and the streets around Broadway and the riverfront are full of buildings from that era. Practically, that means mortise locks, non-standard backsets, and doors where a modern off-the-shelf deadbolt will not drop into the existing prep without carpentry. If someone quotes you a lock change on a house like that sight-unseen, be careful.
Upper Nyack and South Nyack are largely residential and quieter; the village core around Main Street and Broadway is where the storefronts, restaurants and galleries are, and where we see commercial hardware calls — exit devices, door closers, and cylinders that have taken twenty years of public use.
Traffic across the Mario Cuomo Bridge and the Thruway approach affects how quickly we get in from the east. Weekends in the village, particularly when the weather is good, parking and access on Main Street are genuinely difficult.
Full detail on each service: emergency lockouts, car keys and vehicle lockouts, home rekeying and lock installation, commercial door hardware and access control.
Usually the lock can be serviced or rebuilt rather than replaced, and on an older Nyack house that is almost always the better answer. Replacing a mortise lock with a modern lockset often means cutting the door, which on a period house is both expensive and a shame.
Sometimes, but not always, and it depends on the backset, the door thickness and the existing prep. We will tell you before we order anything rather than after we have taken your old lock off.
If it is an exit device on a public-facing door, yes — it is a code issue, not just an inconvenience, and it should be handled the same day.
