About us
Safes are all we do — and we do them right
Sherlocks Safes is a team of safe & vault specialists serving all five New York City boroughs. Safes and vaults are our specialty and the focus of everything we do — protecting what matters most to you.
Our approach
Specialists, not generalists
Because safes are all we do, we take on the jobs other locksmiths turn away — jammed antique safes, heavy vault moves, post-burglary recoveries, and compliance installs for jewelers, pharmacies and offices. New York simply doesn't have enough technicians who can open a safe properly, and that gap is exactly where we work.
Owner Ari brings 16 years of safe & vault experience to every job. We open, repair and service safes without damaging them, explain the security ratings in plain English, and give you a clear written quote up front — and the same technician who assesses the job carries it out. No subcontractors, no call center, and no upselling beyond what you actually need.
