A resident on West 51st Street found themselves locked out late in the evening after leaving the keys inside the apartment with the deadbolt fully engaged.
When Nelson arrived, he confirmed the mortise hardware was in good shape — which meant a non-destructive entry was the right approach.
Entry process
Using professional lock manipulation tools, Nelson worked the mechanism carefully, avoiding any drilling or damage.

Result
Within minutes the door was open cleanly, and the lock was fully tested afterward to ensure nothing had been stressed during entry.
