Â鶹AV

Safe Horizon's Project Safe provides lock replacement services to crime victims in all five New York City boroughs.

Project Safe will change, replace or install top locks free of charge within 24-48 hours. The 'bottom' lock is the property and responsibility of the landlord and will not be serviced by Project Safe's locksmiths. Damaged doors and doorframes must be repaired before scheduling an appointment for locksmith services.
