You Know Who You're Calling. And Who's Showing Up.

Blue Key isn't a dispatch center with a rotating list of technicians. You're dealing directly with us, from the first conversation through the finished job.

Ari of Blue Key Locksmith
Ari, founder of Blue Key Locksmith

Ari

Founder & Master Locksmith

19 YEARS IN THE TRADE

Ari is the locksmith behind Blue Key and the one you'll most often reach when you call. With more than 20 years in the trade, he's learned that the difference is usually in the details. If you're calling Blue Key about a job, there's a good chance you're talking directly to the person who will be doing the work. No dispatcher required.

Tanya of Blue Key Locksmith

Tanya

Marketing & Social Media

Tanya helps keep Blue Key looking like it actually exists in the 21st century. She occasionally handles marketing, social media, photos and the many little things that happen behind the scenes of a family business. She may not be the person showing up with a drill, but she's definitely part of the reason you heard about us in the first place.

Diego

Camera Duty

Diego is usually the guy behind the camera, which means he's responsible for a surprising percentage of the photos you'll see around here. Family pictures, Blue Key pictures, pictures nobody knew were being taken, he's always got a camera nearby. He's not out installing locks, but if you see a suspiciously good photo of us doing it, there's a pretty good chance Diego took it.

Evelyn of Blue Key Locksmith
Evelyn, part of the Blue Key Locksmith family

Evelyn

Family & Quality Control

Evelyn has a useful quality in a family business, she'll tell you what she actually thinks. If something looks good, she'll say so. If it doesn't, we'll hear about that too. She's usually the one asking the questions the rest of us forgot to ask.

Why people keep us

The Kind of Service We’d Want Ourselves.

We believe good locksmith service shouldn't feel complicated. You should know who you're dealing with, understand what needs to be done, know what your options are, and feel comfortable with the work before it begins. We're careful with your home, straightforward about our recommendations, and take the time to make sure everything works properly before we leave. It's really just about doing the job the way we'd want it done for our own family.

Landlords & property managers

Getting a Texas Rental Ready?

If you're preparing a home for a new tenant, it's worth making sure the property's exterior doors have the security hardware they need before handing over the keys. Blue Key helps landlords and property owners install and update door viewers, security deadbolts, and other required security devices, as well as rekey properties between tenants. We're familiar with the security requirements that apply to Texas rental properties and can help you identify what may be missing or outdated.
