We serve The Hills with home lock repairs, rekeying, smart locks, vehicle keys and private gate service. Give us the address and visitor-entry instructions when calling (512) 777-0021 so we can coordinate arrival. The POA manages community entrance gates and RFID access; contact it for changes to those credentials. Serving Austin for more than a decade, we help with the authorized work needed at your property.
If you like the handles already on your home, a key change does not automatically mean replacing them. Rekeying changes the key that operates a compatible cylinder while keeping sound exterior hardware. We inspect the locks and compare that option with replacement when parts are worn or damaged. Include every keyed entrance you want changed in the plan.
Not every cylinder can use the same key. Different keyways and lock designs may prevent a straightforward keyed-alike arrangement. We check which locks can be grouped and explain any replacements needed if one key is your goal. Door fit is checked separately: rekeying alone will not straighten a sagging opening or repair a damaged latch.
A smart lock can make regular guest access easier to manage. Schlage Encode Plus, for example, offers Wi-Fi features and Apple home key on compatible Apple devices. Choose around the entry routine you want, including who needs a personal code and who will administer the account. A simple keypad may suit the job without every remote feature.
Before installation, we check that the selected model fits the door and that the bolt moves smoothly. A stiff opening needs attention before relying on a motorized lock. We explain the model's approved backup-entry method, battery care and account setup, then test the agreed features with you.
If you still use keys for other entrances, mention any spares you need during booking. Our key duplication service starts with the best-working key available. Tell us if the existing key catches or needs jiggling so we can address that instead of simply reproducing the problem.
Discovering you are locked out of your car while it sits in your own garage or driveway is frustrating. We provide mobile car lockout assistance directly at your home. When you contact us, let dispatch know the exact make, model, and year of the vehicle, as well as where it is parked.
For a missing key or fob, we confirm the correct replacement and vehicle-specific work before arranging service. Tell us whether any working key remains and which functions have failed if you still have the fob. Transponder key service concerns start authorization as well as any relevant cutting or remote functions. We test the functions covered by the job before handover.
If a blade breaks in the door lock or ignition, stop forcing it and keep any pieces you have. We inspect the lock before extracting the fragment and check what caused it to bind. For an ignition problem, describe whether the key fails to turn or whether the car turns over but does not start. Our ignition service distinguishes those symptoms before recommending work.
For a private courtyard or pedestrian gate, the lock must suit the frame, opening gap and outdoor exposure. We repair and install gate locks, checking how the gate moves and latches before fitting new hardware. Tell us whether you want physical keys, a code or access linked to a wider system so the choice matches daily use.
For automated private driveways, we can assess and repair the gate operators and access controls. An automatic swing operator operates differently than a sliding gate mechanism. Any work on automated gates must maintain the function of existing safety photo-eyes and reversing edges. We never bypass these critical safety devices during repairs.
Dispatch takes calls 24 hours a day. Describe the immediate problem, any entry instructions and who can approve the work. We discuss timing and scope before arranging the visit. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 first.
For damage repairs, photos of the door and frame help us prepare once the property is safe to approach. We explain temporary securing and permanent repair options separately where necessary. Before handover, we test the repaired opening and changed keys with you.
We also serve Lakeway and Spanish Oaks; see our service area directory for wider coverage. Our Texas locksmith license is B07298601. You should leave the appointment knowing what was changed, who can enter and how to use the finished lock or gate.
Choose the service that fits your situation. Dispatch will confirm the scope for your address.
A clear photo of the lock, keyway or model label can help frame the conversation before a visit.

Yes. Give us the vehicle year, make and model and whether a working spare remains. We confirm the correct key or fob and work required before arranging the visit.
