How we can help you

Your home’s security depends on locks that work when you need them. From emergency lockouts to complete lock replacements, Action Lock Doc handles every residential locksmith's needs with precision and care.

Below is how we help homeowners across Richardson, Garland, and nearby communities:

Access Control

Even for residential properties, some homeowners want better control over who can enter certain areas. We install keypad locks, smart locks, and controlled-access solutions designed for modern households — perfect for rental units, home offices, or shared spaces.

Safe Deposit Boxes

Need access to a jammed safe deposit box at home? We can open, repair, or help you replace secure boxes without damaging the contents.

Door Replacement

Weak, old, or damaged doors make your home vulnerable. We repair or replace residential doors and ensure hardware fits securely and operates smoothly.

Re-Keys

Rekeying is one of the simplest ways to improve home security. After a move, break-in, or tenant change, we reset your lock’s pins so old keys no longer work — all without replacing the entire lock.

Safe Repair

If your home safe is jamming, refusing to open, or has faulty internal parts, our technicians diagnose the issue and repair it while keeping your valuables protected.

Video Cameras

Modern home security often includes more than just locks. We install residential video doorbells and basic surveillance camera systems to give you added peace of mind.

The Home Locksmiths You Can Trust

We take pride in providing fast, professional residential locksmith services you can rely on. Our team is licensed, insured, and trusted by homeowners across Richardson, Garland, and the North Dallas area.

I had a broken key fob and Zack fixed it with no problem. Also the owner was just as nice. If you ever need anything fixed or anything pertaining to keys & locks, go to Action Lock Doc in Richardson. It's well worth it.
