This place is amazing. I reached out to them and they got back to me right away. They were extremely friendly. I've had several issues with other locksmiths, but not with these guys! This is the place to go for any of your needs. They are also very reasonably priced. read more

Howard Safe & Lock - Keys made - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me - Houston, Texas

We've heard all the praises about our local locksmith, and so we hired them to rekey our locks and to install keypads. I called him on a Saturday and he came today, on Sunday. No need, since it wasn't an emergency. However, he was prompt, professional, courteous, and extremely fair with pricing. Mor is just an all around nice man with incredible customer service skills. Eight locks and a couple of keypads done in just a little over an hour. Fantastic job! read more

This place is great! Always friendly and fast. It takes literally two seconds for Mike to cut my keys. This is my key copying go-to place!

Brought in a lock and they re-keyed it while I waited and made extra keys. Quick service and reliable. Keys work very well.

My 2018 VW Tiguan key fob was not working, walked in and Howard expressed either it would be a full key replacement or just new battery because light on the key wasn't turning on. Howard split open the key and popped new battery in. Walah boom, started working. FREE OF CHARGE! What an establishment!!! read more

Great customer service! We had an issue with a lock on our back door and the gentleman working came to our rescue and took the time to figure out the issue for us. Highly recommend Howard Safe & Lock! read more

Locked ourselves out of our house and someone came in less than 10 minutes. Super nice and efficient! Would definitely recommend for any locksmith emergencies. read more

Not reliable. There were 2 separate appointments to replace a lost auto key and remote. The first appointment was a no-can do, and scheduled a for sure appointment for the next day for the hours between10a -12p. I've waited and waited, and no one showed up. Not event a received txt or call to cancel the appointment. read more

Great guys and great speedy work. Absolutely would recommend for any of their services.

Came to Howard Safe & Lock Co to cut keys and was served by Mike the manager who was charming and so helpful. He was able to direct me in the right direction to replace a fob and made cutting my other key a breeze. Highly recommend this place for their excellent customer service. Thanks, Mike! read more

During a time when I REALLY needed my car unlocked, I called the right place! Everyone from the person who answered the phone to the guy that came to unlock my car were so nice and FAST! I will definitely use them in the future. read more

Fast, efficient, helpful, and reasonably priced! I was a walk in for a key copy yesterday (in a hurry; what's new???) and despite being busy they cut the key and had me on my way in a matter of minutes! Thank you to the entire staff : ) read more

Bad experience. I needed a copy of a key for my car and a worker gave me advice to try to "save me money" and told me to get the keys online and bring them in to cut and program. I did that and they confirmed it was the correct key and they proceeded to cut it but could NOT program it (even though they said it was the right key). The owner then sold me a part for almost 100 to make they key work but in the end not all the buttons worked after all. He said he would give me the old part back so I can get a refund for the key but once I got to the store he said he was only giving me the old part back but couldn't refund me for the part that he installed that didn't work correctly. All in all I ended up spending MORE than if I had just gotten the fob key from them in the first place (which I would've if the worker hadn't advised me to do otherwise). read more

Excellent service from Howard Safe & Lock. Jordan was on time and also contacted me in advance to let me know his eta despite me having scheduled the appointment at the very last minute. Friendly, professional, efficient, and knowledgeable read more

Great staff and very knowledgeable. Scheduling is convenient and flexibility on time of day/weekends was amazing.

They were very professional and helpful. The locksmith had everything needed for a major lock and key change in his van, so it was very efficient. read more

Mor was super quick, friendly and helpful with my commercial key copy. Highly recommend! read more

Unbelievably poor customer service. Walked into the store just after 5:00pm on a weekday to get a battery car key FOB replaced, just to be told the store was closed. Politely protested that their own website noted 6:00pm closure and showed the (likely) manager as such on my phone. Received a sincere apology in reply, yet categorically refused to budge. Extremely unusual to say the least, but not the end of the world. Returned the following (week)day at 4:44pm. Another customer was already standing at the storefront looking quizzically inside. Door locked; no one inside; no note of explanation. Icing on the cake was the (non-OEM) FOB which I had purchased from Howard Lock & Key as a backup some months previously - the battery surprisingly was dead. In any event, took the FOB to a Batteries Plus store. The clerk happened to point out to me the poor soldering / assembly of the FOB. Strike Three. Very regrettable for Howard Lock & Key, as they lost both this customer and more importantly a realtor close friend who had up to this time had all his lease property re-keys done by them. read more

Outstanding and friendly customer service! Mike really to the time to solve a tricky lock problem. Expert advice and highly professional.

Thank you so much Mike!!! Called here based on reviews. Mike had someone come out to my job within 30 minutes, was able to unlock the car and make a new car key in an hour on this hot day! Talk about amazing service and a great price!! Thank you again!!! read more

My wife and I always go here whenever we need any key work done. They have always been super fast and affordable!

Super easy. In and out within minutes. Super friendly staff. I had a total of 6 keys made from three different types of keys. Highly recommended! read more

Got a key, shell, and battery for a pretty good deal ($100). Super patient, worked with me on price, even when my original remote was practically rusted shut. Convenient location off 14th and Main, so if you're in the Heights, Northside, Garden Oaks, or First Ward, it's super easy to get to. read more

My husband and I tried to replace our front door lock on our own, and ran into some issues with the fit of the new lock. We tried to put our old one back in, but that wouldn't fit either. Seeing as it was a Sunday, we were very worried we would not be able to get a good technician in time to come help us. Mor from Howard Safe & Lock responded quickly to our request, and arrived even quicker. He was able to fix our lock, and was very helpful the entire time. Definitely would recommend to a friend! read more

Great bunch. Highly recommended. Got blanks cut for my motorcycle in about a minute flat when it was hard to find someone to do so.

Got a key fob replaced from them, spent $200 just for it to snap on me while I was trying to turn my car on. I've had the key for a little over a year now, needless to say, they use cheap parts that won't last you. I called to see what my options were, and they'll give 10% off to get another $200 key. Yeah right...Save yourself the headache and just go to the dealership to get a quality product... read more

I went to them after reading many great reviews. Now I know why they got such great reviews! I needed keys to my motorcycle luggage that went out of business and within moments they had the blanks and made them. Next I needed duplicate keys for my Honda motorcycle, they didn't have the blanks in stock, Mike said he could get them in 2 days. He did and made them. Lastly I needed a duplicate door and ignition key for my Rv. Had them in stock and made them right up. I can't say enough good for this business other than, if you need keys for anything THIS is the place to go! read more

Stopped in to make a copy of my home key. Mike said good morning, took my key and cane back about 10 seconds later. This old school locksmith believes in service and they perform! See Mike for all of your lock and key needs! read more

Great Service Mike !! Fast & Affordale prices, they can help you with all kinds of key copies.

Obtained two key fobs for a 2012 Dodge Ram. The programming and cutting of the keys was 10 minutes or less. Great response time regarding my request for a quote. All said and done I will be back if I ever need to do this again. read more

I've used Howard Safe & Lock several times, getting keys made, bringing locks in to be rekeyed, etc. This time I called to have them come out and remove an old lock from an entry door that I couldn't get off without destroying the door. They arrived within 30 minutes and removed and installed a new lock. Friendly to work with , quick, did a great job at a great price. I will definitely use again. read more

I have to say that locksmith Mor Vidal and the rest of the gang did a great job advising me on what to do with my sticky locks. They were very friendly. But they didn't try to convince me to buy a bunch of fancy new locks even though they appear to have a nice diverse selection of new locks. They were honest enough to offer me a rekeying solution. Locksmith Mor did an excellent job. He finished my first sticky lock with such skill and so quickly that I knew I had found a good locksmith. He sent me off to retrieve the other five locks that needed help and I ran off to change them out and quickly bring them back. When he was done all of my locks were turning as smooth as molasses, just beautiful! My wife is extremely pleased! Before locksmith Mor used to skill on them they were dirty and in horrible shape. I would gladly recommend the Howard safe and lock company to anyone and everyone. There's a lot to be said for good old-fashioned customer service. They seem to still value that wonderful tradition here. Great job Howard safe and lock! Scott S. in the Heights read more

Mr. Vidal assisted me this morning when I was locked out of my vehicle. He was extremely quick to respond and was speedy when opening my vehicle. I was impressed with his professionalism and would recommend using him. Quick and stress free service! read more

I could not have planned an easier time or kinder locksmith. I called and to ask about replacing the key for my car that broke and Moore gave me a realistic time frame to meet him at the shop because he was currently on a job and didn't want me to have to wait. The shop is so welcoming and he knew exactly what I needed. He was very straightforward and confident about the solution. He quickly got me a new key. I forgot my credit card and he was so patient as I had to make a call to get the number. I noticed the way he interacted with customers on the phone and others in the shop and he was so respectful and kind. I am so happy I found Howard Safe and Lock and will be back any time I need anything! read more

Our go to Locksmith! Moore always has a solution.. price, service, dependability,, chaaayeck!!

SUPERB service--so quick and knowledgeable, will absolutely call them again when needed.

Came in to have keys cut for an older SUV that a smaller key cutter couldn't do. Was in and out within 10 minutes and he even replaced the battery inside the key for us. Highly recommend! read more
