What Fort Worth Homeowners Say About Novak Lock & Security Fort Worth
Reviews in the locksmith trade are tricky. Most people don’t think about who they’ll call until they’re standing outside their own door at 11 PM, or until they’ve just handed keys to a tenant they’ll never see again. When someone takes the time to write about us afterward, it means the work mattered enough to remember. We earn that memory by showing up in uniform, naming the price before we touch anything, and leaving a photo record that proves what was done. Here’s what Fort Worth neighbors have told us.
Recent Reviews
We bought a 1952 bungalow in Berkeley Place and the seller had lost the only key to the original front door deadbolt. Daniel quoted $89 to rekey the cylinder over the phone, showed up in a marked van, and had it working in twenty minutes. The photo record he emailed me before he left showed the old pins next to the new ones. Haven’t thought about that lock once in three years because it just works.

My office in the Near Southside needed access control on three interior doors after a staffing change. I got two other quotes that were vague, “depends on the wiring” numbers. Daniel walked the building, wrote a flat $2,400 scope for the card readers and programming, and that was the invoice total two days later when his technician finished. No surprises, no add-ons. The 365-Day Done Right Promise was printed right on the work order.

I manage a twenty-unit property off Camp Bowie Boulevard. One of our Schlage deadbolts had been rekeyed so many times the cylinder was chewing up keys. Daniel replaced it with a commercial-grade B660P and rekeyed it to our master system. He noted the old lock was Grade 3 residential hardware that had no business on an exterior door with that much traffic. The written price was $187 before he started. I keep his number in my phone now.

Locked myself out of my truck at the Hulen Mall parking garage on a Sunday evening. Called three places; two went to voicemail, one wanted $180 “starting at” with a technician who would call me back. Daniel’s dispatcher answered on the second ring, quoted $95 flat for the unlock, and the technician was there in thirty-four minutes. Price on the phone matched the receipt. That’s the only reason I’m writing this, honestly. Consistency matters when you’re standing in a parking garage.

After a break-in attempt on our Mistletoe Heights rental, the jamb was splintered and the Kwikset deadbolt had been pried half out of the door. Daniel replaced the entire assembly with a Grade 2 commercial deadbolt, reinforced the strike plate with a wrap, and rekeyed it to match the existing key. He photographed the pry marks on the old hardware, the new installation, and the reinforced jamb. The written scope was $267. My insurance adjuster accepted his photo record without question.

I needed four residential rekeys after a divorce, two in Fairmount and two at a rental I own in Ryan Place. Daniel grouped the appointments, quoted $79 per cylinder, and completed all four in one afternoon. Each lock got new pins, each key worked smoothly, and I received four separate photo records with the pin configurations visible. The price was exactly what he said on the phone. Haven Standard Clause 1, he called it. I didn’t know what that meant until I saw it in practice.
