The Hyder family

Hyder & Son Safe and Lock has been a family business since 2001. Bret, Judy, and the family, Chelsie and Ray among them, are the people answering the phone and showing up at your door.

That is twenty-plus years of car lockouts at 2am, safes that wouldn't open, and front doors that needed sorting before the kids got home. We are High Security Specialist Locksmiths, licensed by the Texas DPS, and we treat your keys like they are our own.

Wow! I'm so grateful and impressed by Ray's customer service, prompt response time, and efficient work! I had locked myself out of my car in the early A.M. hours while it was still dark out, and I had called 4 other locksmith call centers previously with false promises to call back and hours of silence! I couldn't even get roadside assistance! Ray picked up immediately, was kind on the phone and in person, and was happy to help! The price was fair and affordable with a small wait time to arrive, and the process was seamless and such a relief!

Called Hyder and Son for their service. They came through within a reasonable time and a great price. Another locksmith I called had told me they would call back, never heard back from them.

I had a problem with a deadbolt on my front door. I called and Bret came over very quickly and had the problem resolved just as quickly, and seeing Deputy was a bonus. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend! Called and was given a 30 minute turnaround, Chelsie arrived in 25 min. She was very professional and courteous, had the lock opened within 5 min! If I ever need another locksmith, this will be the place I call!

Bret gives great advice and even had our keys on file so we could get copies years later. I can trust that our keys are safe and won't be duplicated unless Hyder and Son makes them.
