⏱ Staten Island is suburban and reached via the Verrazzano Bridge, so we book it in: same-day where we can for planned work, with an honest ETA from our Manhattan base and travel accounted for up front.
Safe & vault work across Staten Island
Staten Island is the most suburban of the five boroughs, and the safe work reflects that. The hilltop neighborhoods at the island's center — Todt Hill, Emerson Hill, Grymes Hill and Lighthouse Hill — hold some of the largest single-family homes and estates in New York City, while the South Shore, from Great Kills out to Tottenville, is a long run of family homes with driveways and yards. So our Staten Island work is overwhelmingly residential: larger home, fire, document and gun safes set into basements, garages and closets, and estate and inherited-safe openings as the bigger houses change hands.
Access is genuinely easy here compared with the rest of the city — driveways and garages mean we can usually bring a heavy safe right to the install point without rigging stairs or a stoop. A handful of South Shore and waterfront homes call for flood-aware placement.
We reach Staten Island from our Manhattan base down through Brooklyn and over the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, so we book the borough in and give you an honest ETA — same-day where we can for planned work, with a clear, upfront quote that accounts for the trip. Every job is licensed and insured, and openings are non-destructive wherever possible.

“We were desperate to get our safe open after two companies tried and failed. Sherlock replied right away and was on site immediately with no notice on a Saturday. They got the job done fast and honestly. Thank you so much.”

Emergency Safe Opening · 2025
“I was looking to move a 500lb safe and had difficulty finding a mover. I called a few companies and got a run around. When I called Ari over at Sherlocks Safes he asked for some pictures of the safe and move. Within 24hrs he gave me a price and scheduled the move in a time frame that worked for me. The two men that showed up were great. They took great care in moving the safe through very narrow passages. There was no damage, they were quick and efficient at the job. If you're looking to move a safe then Sherlocks Safes is your best bet. I highly recommend them.”

“Prompt, professional, and comprehensive! We had an evening safe situation and Ari responded almost immediately. He gave us a quote (which he stuck by) and was able to arrive the next morning at 9am. Not only did he open the safe, he made it workable again. One of the most reasonable quotes and definitely the fastest service — it is hard to find those two together. Thank you, Ari!”
