Hyde Park is an Austin neighborhood in ZIP 78751, where older homes and rentals can have a wide range of lock hardware. For a historic door or rental, share photos of the lock and door edge, the visible brand, and whether the issue is access, rekeying, or replacement. Those details help confirm compatibility and a complete quote before scheduling.

After looking for a couple days I figured my keys had to be locked in my car or lost. I explained my situation to Zach who was very understanding. He unlocked my locked car for me and helped look for the keys. Once we were not able to find them he reassured me, helped me get the best deal possible, and was even able to get new keys made for me the same night. I am very grateful for not only his work but how understanding and courteous he is.

Locked myself out, but had my cell phone. Called one company and they wanted $150. I called Wow and they said $95, so I agreed. 45 minutes later my locksmith came by and picked my lock in less than 5 minutes. Scary how fast a good locksmith can get into almost anything. Nice young gentleman, simple payment, and now I have a secret key so I do not do something stupid like this again.
