Our mobile locksmiths are trained to install, rekey, and repair all major Kwikset lock models. Get same-day service, upfront pricing, and peace of mind knowing your property is protected.


Why Using Kwikset Locks

Kwikset locks are a go-to choice for Kingwood residents who want solid security without a high price tag. They’re easy to install, available in many finishes, and offer dependable performance for interior and exterior doors. Many Kwikset models meet ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 standards, making them suitable for residential use and light commercial applications.

A unique feature is Kwikset’s SmartKey technology, which allows users to rekey their locks in seconds without removing the lock from the door. This makes them especially useful for homeowners who frequently change tenants or roommates. The brand also offers a wide range of styles and smart lock options, giving users flexibility in both design and technology.

The main downside is that while affordable, some entry-level Kwikset locks don’t offer the same pick or bump resistance as premium brands like Medeco or Schlage. But for budget-conscious customers and basic security needs, Kwikset strikes a great balance between cost and performance.

Kwikset Lock Rekey

If your lock is still in good shape, rekeying your Kwikset lock can save time and money. With SmartKey models, we can rekey your lock quickly using Kwikset's proprietary toolset. This allows you to change your key without replacing the entire lock hardware.

For standard pin-and-tumbler Kwikset locks, we disassemble the cylinder and replace the internal pins to match a new key. Rekeying services typically cost between $25 and $45 per cylinder and include a free key. It’s ideal after a move, staff turnover, or lost key situation.

Smart Locks

Kwikset offers a wide variety of smart locks, including touchscreen and keypad models with built-in Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity. These allow you to unlock doors using your phone, set custom user codes, and monitor entry history remotely. Options like Kwikset Halo and Aura are perfect for busy households and vacation rental properties in Kingwood.

Standard smart locks from Kwikset, like Halo Touch, replace your existing deadbolt and require full installation. Retrofit models, while less common, may allow adding smart features to existing deadbolts depending on the system.

We provide full installation and setup, including connecting your Kwikset smart lock to your mobile app, configuring codes, and ensuring smooth functionality. Smart locks give you flexibility, keyless entry, and peace of mind—all with Kwikset's trusted brand behind it.

Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith

While Kwikset locks are popular for DIY installations, mistakes like misaligned strikes or loose hardware can compromise your security. SmartKey models also require precision to avoid jamming or damage during rekeying.

By hiring a professional locksmith in Kingwood, you ensure the lock is installed and rekeyed correctly the first time. Our service includes a 6-month warranty on both labor and hardware, and we offer recommendations tailored to your specific security needs. Save time and avoid frustration with expert help on-site.
