ABOUT US

A Licensed, Owner-Operated NYC Locksmith You Can Trust

The locksmith trade is full of fake listings and bait-and-switch pricing. Rainbow Locksmith NY is the opposite: a real storefront at 338 E 65th Street, family-run and co-owned by Meir and Joseph, serving the Upper East Side for 30 years.

Meir leads our team of licensed technicians in the field, so a vetted professional shows up, not an anonymous subcontractor. We are licensed by the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, fully bonded and insured, and provide a Certificate of Insurance for buildings on request.
