Locksmith in Preston Hollow, Dallas TX
Preston Hollow is the Dallas neighborhood where high-security cylinders are the rule rather than the exception. Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA, and Schlage Primus appear on most of the front doors we service here. The work tends to be quieter and longer — a full estate rekey can be a half-day job, and the smart-home integration that comes with it usually means coordinating with a Control4 or Crestron tech the homeowner already has.

If you’re shopping for a higher-grade upgrade, the most common Preston Hollow swap we do is from a stock Schlage B-series deadbolt to a Medeco Maxum or Mul-T-Lock MT5+. That single upgrade resists picking, bumping, and key duplication better than nearly anything else short of an electronic lock. We can also key the new high-security cylinder to match your existing house key family, so you don’t end up carrying three keys.
Preston Hollow runs on better hardware than average
Compared to most Dallas neighborhoods, Preston Hollow homes are likelier to have high-security cylinders, integrated alarm systems, and recent smart-lock installations. We've installed and serviced Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage Primus, and ASSA cylinders here. If your front door has a 'high-security' cylinder — one that resists picking and bumping more than standard hardware — we can rekey or service it.
Smart locks at the Preston Hollow scale
Smart locks in Preston Hollow are often part of a larger smart-home system — Control4, Crestron, or similar. We work on the lock side and coordinate with your integrator on the system side. We won't pretend to be smart-home installers; we're locksmiths who know how the lock has to talk to the larger system.
Privacy and discretion
Many Preston Hollow homeowners value discretion. We don't park branded vehicles in obvious places when not necessary, don't share information about who we work for, and don't post photos of jobs without explicit permission. This is normal for us — we treat every client this way, but it matters more to some than others.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work on high-security locks like Medeco and Mul-T-Lock?
Yes. We carry pinning kits and authorized parts for the most common high-security families and can rekey or service them.
Can you coordinate with our smart-home integrator?
Yes. We handle the lock side and work alongside Control4, Crestron, or whatever system you use.
What if our front door has a custom cylinder?
Many Preston Hollow homes have specialty cylinders that came with the original construction. We can usually rekey them or, if the cylinder is past its service life, source a replacement that matches the hardware.
Do you handle estate or property-management work for absentee homeowners?
Yes. We can coordinate scheduled work — caretaker access, seasonal rekeys, lock servicing — for homeowners who aren't always in town.
Are you discreet?
Yes. We treat client confidentiality as a default.
Can you handle a safe inside the home as well?
Most residential safes, yes. For high-security commercial-grade safes inside the home, we'll tell you on the phone whether it's a job for us or a specialty safe technician.
