Nice guy on the phone. Efficient. Got my number and then had his guy in the field call me back from his cell phone. The guy (Alex) called a few minutes later and was more than willing to accomidate my wacky schedule. He arrived. He fixed my broken front door lock. He left 20 minutes later. It was excellent. And not too expensive. $140 for a new lock and their labor charge. Good job Eastside!

Did you ever have 'one of those days' when whatever could go wrong, does?

This place is a lifesaver, if you get stuck in your own car, after a long journey.

Recently, my car key got jammed, (somehow it got bent), and could not be disengaged from the ignition.  There was no way I was going to leave the car on the street - it was not even parked in a legal spot for the night - and I was not about to have it hauled away.  Triple-AAA could do nothing, as I recall, besides take the car.

Luckily, my super is a great resource for everything, and called Barry from Eastside in the middle of the night, and he appeared like magic.

It did not look well, for quite a while.  He made grimaces and acted like it was totally impossible to get the key out.  (As if it was my fault, lol!)  But, after much persistence, with a Brooklyn accent thrown in for good measure, and scolding, he was able to get the key disengaged.
He said it was bent and needed replacement.  He came back with a flatbed truck and put the car away for me for the night, till he could make a new key.  

He saved my day - and night, and goodness knows what else.  (If you have ever had your car impounded downtown, you know what I am talking about).

This is a great card to keep on hand if you drive in the city.  They also
do residential and commercial security work, glass, locks, alarms, accessories, CCTV, Access Control, and High Security Locks - service and installations.  Barry is a licensed Master Locksmith, and has a brilliant touch in getting you out of 'jams' literally.  Don't mind his gruff manner.  He gets the job done.
