Meet Our Team

Vincent Bonomo didn't just start a business - he built a legacy. In 1999, after over a decade working as a locksmith, he launched Advanced Locksmith, Inc. from a shared Brooklyn office with little more than a toolbelt and a dream.

Word spread, and so did the business. Soon, Vincent needed more space, and Advanced Locksmith, Inc. found it's home in the heart of New York City, becoming a trusted commercial security solutions provider.

Vincent is known for his know-how, problem solving and mentorship, he is the kind of leader who is always willing and very likely to pick up a tool as he teaches the new hires the ropes. With over 30 years in the field, there's no lock he hasn't tackled.

Off the clock, Vincent's world revolves around football and family - especially his grandchildren.
