History

Our History

In 1988, following the American dream, the founders came from Jerusalem on a trip to New York City, and found work in the locksmith business. Quickly thereafter identifying the opportunity and needs at the locksmith business, they went on to open Paragon Locksmith's first location at 86 Christopher Street, in NYC West Village and started to develop new business methods.

As the opportunity arrived, the owners of Paragon Locksmith went on to purchase the well-established University Locksmith in NYC Greenwich Village.

Committed to Quality and Excellence

The company began providing locksmith services in Manhattan, gradually growing its customer base and services, when in 1994, with the addition of the third partner, they went to expand the business. They purchased 2 more locksmith companies at NYC business district of Midtown East at 845 2nd Avenue, by the UN headquarters, and another location in the trendy Tribeca neighborhood at 148 Church Street, New York City Hall, to establish the brand among the leading companies in the NYC locksmith industry.

With their entrepreneurial and innovative approach, the partners went on to open additional locations and add to the locksmith services an electronic low-voltage security systems department to accommodate the needs. Today Paragon Security's reputation has grown beyond NYC to provide complete security solutions to residential and commercial customers throughout New York City's five boroughs, New Jersey, Connecticut and beyond.

Paragon Security is committed to keep growing and embracing the challenges and the evolving market conditions, designing and building security systems solutions for residential and commercial new development projects, real estate owners and property management companies, with joy, attention and commitment to each customer and project.

Trusted Solutions, Exceptional Results

Their diagnostic skills are very good
“They can be trusted to do what they say they are going to do and their diagnostic skills are very good.”

Raphael S.
Very meticulous and professional
“Gal did an excellent job installing a smart lock for my home. Job was finished beautifully. Would highly recommend him and the company for any lock and security needs.”

McKenzie C.
Neighborhood gem!
“So convenient and friendly! Needed to get an extra key made today - it was a Mul-T-Lock so a little more complicated. It was incredibly fast and Will at the counter was especially nice and told me about their Tuesday “happy hour” on key cutting - 20% off. Our building uses Paragon for all our building’s keys. They also installed and fixed an electronic keypad for our front door and took the time to do it right. Neighborhood gem!”
