Overview
Our residential locksmith service covers lockouts, rekeying, lock repair and replacement, deadbolt upgrades, smart lock installation and extra keys for houses, townhomes and apartments across Houston. If a lock on your home isn't doing its job, whether it won't open, won't close or opens for people it shouldn't, that's the work we do.
Houston homes come with their own lock headaches. Humidity makes wooden doors swell, so a deadbolt that slid easily in February fights you by June. Older homes in neighborhoods like Oak Forest and the Heights often still have original hardware that's worn thin. And new construction out in Cypress and Katy frequently ships with basic builder grade locks that more than a few crews had keys to during the build. Rekeying or upgrading those locks costs far less than dealing with a break in later.
Landlords, this part is for you. Texas Property Code Section 92.156 requires landlords to rekey locks operated by a key, card or combination no later than the seventh day after each tenant turnover, at the landlord's expense. We rekey rental properties on a turnaround that keeps you compliant. All of our residential work is done under Texas DPS License B20251.
What's Included
Everything your front door, back door and garage entry might need.
Locked out with the keys on the kitchen counter? We open the door using picks and bypass tools and leave the lock working.
The fastest way to make sure the previous owner, their cousin and their contractor can't get in.
Deadbolts that stick, knobs that spin loose and locks damaged in an attempted break in, repaired or replaced on the spot.
Deadbolts that resist picking and bumping far better than basic builder grade hardware.
Keypad and smart locks installed and set up, so family members get codes and the key under the flowerpot retires.
Pin locks, security bars and replacement latches for sliding glass doors, a favorite entry point that too many homes leave weak.
