Houdini's Lock and Security

Houdini's Lock and Security runs locksmith work out of Spring, Texas. They cut and program keys for vehicles, swap cylinders to match existing locks, and handle entry for homes, cars, and work vans. Technicians including Chad, Eric, Mat, and others show up to complete these tasks on site after customers reach out.

Reviewers describe calls for new programmable keys on trucks after shopping around town for the right service. Others bring in Schlage locks that lost their keys so the cylinder can be reset to fit the rest of the house. Jobs also cover unlocking bottom locks on houses after self lockouts, retrieving keys from inside work vans, and opening cars early in the morning before shifts start. One customer got advice on sourcing a filing cabinet key copy without needing a visit at all.

They answer phones on Saturdays and Sundays as well as early mornings when other shops stay closed. Chad and Eric often arrive within an hour or by set times after a quick heads up call or text. Pricing stays at regular weekday levels even on weekends and comes in lower than quotes from other companies in the area. Work stays focused on the Spring area with service on short notice for both routine and urgent requests.

“The guys at Houdini are awesome! They definitely go the extra mile for their customers. I ordered 2 new programmable keys for my truck. I called around town trying to find a company to cut and program my keys for me. Then I found Houdini safe and lock, these guys were at my house in an hour and pricing is the best in town for the service that I needed. These guys will be my first call from here on out for all of my locksmith needs.”

“In my search for a Locksmith on a Saturday I found/called Houdini's Lock & Security, Chad stated he had a job downtown and would meet me afternoon/early evening, which he did calling me 15 minutes before arrival. I brought Chad a Schlage lock that we lost the key to and he was able to change the cylinder to match our other locks. Not only was I impressed that he took the time to help me on this non emergency issue on a Saturday but he also only charged normal weekday rates, which was much much less than what other companies would have charged, especially weekend rates (I did call other companies checking their pricing). Chad has our and our family's business from now on...We Highly Recommend this company...”

“Chad was great Fast service fair price he actually showed up, unlike the rest of the people who don’t. You will be happy. He unlocked my bottom lock. I locked myself out the house.”

“I needed a locksmith to help with keys locked in a our work van. Chad was quick to respond, great communication throughout the process. I would highly recommend Houdini Lock and Safe and would use them again in the future.”

“Very professional. I locked my keys in my car early morning before work. Called around 730am and actually answered. Other locksmiths in the area didn’t open till 9am. The locksmith arrived on time and even sent a text message for updates on arrival time. I would definitely recommend them.”

“Chad was really helpful. He came on a Sunday evening and helped us with getting back into our house. Friendly, quick and affordable!”

“Eric was great! Called about 8:00 Am and he was at my house by 9:30 am! Very knowledgeable and speedy. Took about 15 minutes! Definitely will be giving him a call if I ever need help!”

“Eric was the technician designated to my call and he was a huge help! We ended up not needing him to come by the office, and instead of just ending the call he proceeded to tell me a way where I could possibly purchase a copy of our filing cabinet key to avoid this issue in the future. Above and beyond customer service. Thank you!”

“Only Houdino act this company ever did was escape from work when it was time to change the locks. He said would come by at 10am, he never showed, wouldn't respond to texts, wouldn't answer the phone when we called and wouldn't return phone call messages. If you're not going to be able to make it then fine, but at least own it so we can search elsewhere.”
