...and what it looks like. Sigh, we see it all the time. Some people insist on calling the cheapest Locksmith in 77030 that they can find.  Well this is what a cheap Houston locksmith looks like...

These are photos of two different locks on the same building in Houston 77030 locksmith territory. The locks are poorly installed, of poor quality, and are double cylinder. That means that they have a key on the inside and the outside. On a commercial building this is a very  bad violation of the life safety codes. A professional Houston locksmith would be ashamed to use these and to  perform such ugly work. Quality locks need to be installed correctly by a professional locksmith so that they look nice and work properly! It is also the job of a highly trained locksmith in 77030 to study and understand building and life safety codes! People's lives depend on it! So please, as you shop for a Houston locksmith remember, this is what cheap looks like. Don't be that person who ends up with this on their building "protecting" millions of dollars worth of equipment and inventory! It is money wasted and money put at risk. Want your Houston locksmith needs done right? Call Mike with Master Locksmith Company at 713 878 2189. Mike attends continuing education classes every year. More than what the law requires, actually. Trust Master Locksmith Company. 

Do the best Houston Locksmiths use graphite to lubricate locks?? NO!!! We never use graphite in locks. Here's why. The graphite builds up and actually acts to block or hinder the operation of a lock and can be quite abrasive as well. The  best locksmiths in Houston use Tri Flo or Houdini Lock Lube. Look at these photo's of a Mul T Lock high security lock which was filled up with graphite and ceased to operate.(Even the best locks will fail with this stuff in them) This Houston Locksmith actually disassembled the lock cylinder completely  and cleaned it thoroughly. We certainly do not want it to fail again due to poor service. 

This type of contamination will quickly render even a high quality lock inoperable so always use a teflon or silicon based lube. Never use graphite in a lock. If you ever need a professional Houston Locksmith feel free to call Master Locksmith Company at 713 878 2189

As is the case in many situations, small things make a big difference in the locksmith business. Small things that a customer would have no way of  being aware of and, sadly, many locksmiths are not either. Take this service call in which Mike Wilson, with Master Locksmith Company, was tasked with repairing a front door exit device for a local school. The key  would no longer rotate enough to unlatch the door. It has occured  where a locksmith will simply sell the unsuspecting customer a whole new device either because he is unscurpulous or  he just doesn't know what to do nor does he have the parts to do it. With a nearly 30 year career to draw experience from and  integrity  beyond question, Mike was able to repair this very expensive exit device and save the customer  a great deal of money. Having the correct parts makes all the difference in the world.

One can barely see the small gear in these photos. This is the part that is broken and rendering this entry/exit device inoperable.

   This photo shows the broken gear in the middle along with two gears which look similiar but are not. They are made for two different brands of device. One will work here and one will not. A Houston area locksmith, having the right parts, can make a professional repair and not have to replace the whole unit and it will work as it was intended. I have seen some repairs where the technician simply rotated the gear and reinstalled it!! This is not a professional repair!! Repaired in that manner the device will marginally open but will not completely unlock as it is intended to do. So when your commercial exit devices fail or are not working properly, don't settle for poor repairs. Call Master Locksmith Company and get things done right!! We have a vast spectrum of experience and carry a range of parts needed to complete these types of locksmith jobs professionally.  Master Locksmith Company serves all of the Houston area.

I guess it is the same for this Houston Locksmith and any other "job". Doing the daily grind and waiting for the fun stuff. Opening safes is one of the fun things that a Houston Locksmith gets to do. This Houston locksmith is no exception! This particular safe opening is unusual in a couple of aspects. One. It was done for a local school and the circumstances are just like TWO other school safes I have opened this year. The safe is sitting in someone's office, in the open position, and noone knows the combination! Some student comes along and absently turns the dial! Locked out! On this particular safe there was an additional problem. After opening the lock we found that the handle was still locked. This was due to a manufacturers misadjustment which caused the safe handle to lock. So we had to defeat this feature as well. All in a days work for Master Locksmith Company! Houston's trusted Locksmith!

Special knowledge and special tools are required to crack a safe. Please do not try this at home!! Call the safe crackers at Master Locksmith Company!!!!

A Houston Locksmith is never done with his chores. What the customer sees when Master Locksmith Company shows up is the clean prepared professional Houston Locksmith.

Vans and equipment need to be cleaned and maintaned. This is one of my favorite things to do! Dump the tool belt!  Yes. Every so often the belt gets dumped, cleaned, sorted and repacked about 7 lbs lighter!! Customers see how easily and gracefully Master Locksmith exucutes his jobs. They don't see the work behind the scenes that makes the locksmith job look so easy. A well organized and clean tool set and lcoksmith van are essential to the success of any locksmith job.

The work of Houston Locksmith, Mike Wilson, takes me to all sorts of places. From pipe yards, oil tool shops, to the Offshore Technology Conference. One of the vendors had a meeting tent set up and all of the keys to the doors  were lost. My job, as one of Houston's professional locksmiths, was to go out and pick open the locks. This situation is still developing because the client now wants me to go back and retrofit the doors with a system servicable by locksmiths in the US. Seems the doors have some Chinese market exit hardware to which keys are not readily available here in the states. We'll see how this goes. I'm sure Master Locksmith Company can facilitate a solution. If you are in need of an experienced and professional Houston Locksmith, your best choice is Master Locksmith Company.

My company, Master Locksmith Company Inc. has and will continue to openly provide the highest level of professionalism and skill in it's delivery of locksmith services to all people. Jews, Christians, Muslims, etc, and GAY people. Some of my biggest sales have been to gay couples and one couple in particular who had been together for over 3 decades and had two adopted children who were on their way to university. More than can be said for some "traditional" families. My work will never be purposefully done incorrectly, thereby endangering those whom I have pledged to protect via my security products. I will always show respect for those whom I come in contact with, so long as respect is shown to me.:))

This kind of thinking is so archaic that one wonders why some choose to still embrace it. Our society needs to evolve. We need to evolve towards understanding and acceptance. Not bigotry and hatred. If you are gay and need a locksmith, don't be afraid to call. If you're straight, you can call too! We all live here together. Let's work together, shall we?

A customer called and wanted us to secure his daughters apt door. She needed #ApartmentSecurity ! Seems someone broke into another woman's apt and assaulted her! She had the typical cheap kwikset locks on her door. The kind of stuff you find on nearly every apt and many single family homes! Not good! We removed this junk and installed #HighSecurity #MulTLockDeadbolt with a #Schlage keyless lock, also with a Mul T Lock cylinder. We also installed a heavy duty one way deadbolt. The original was cheap and barely worked. As always, #MasterLocksmithCompany installed the locks with the greatest care and professional locksmith skill. We used all of the High Security components which come with the locks and added some of our own special touches. Everything we can do to make our clients safe in an unsafe world.

Every good #HoustonLocksmith will be in class today. Unfortunately, not every Houston Locksmith will be there today..

Among the varied topics taught will be a class on biometric locking devices. That is where Master Locksmith's Mike Wilson will be today. What will your #BellaireLocksmith be doing today? Hope he is not skipping school! Call the educated professionals at #MasterLocksmithCompany for all of your #professionalLocksmith needs in Houston, Bellaire and surrounding areas.
