Highland Lakes Lock & Key provides mobile locksmith service to homeowners, lake-house owners, and small businesses throughout Granite Shoals, from the Lake LBJ shoreline neighborhoods out to the FM 1431 corridor. We come to you for lockouts, rekeying, lock repair, and commercial security work — no need to drive into Marble Falls for a locksmith.
Granite Shoals sits about seven miles west of Marble Falls on a bend of the eastern shore of Lake LBJ, in southwestern Burnet County. The city grew out of Sherwood Shores, a subdivision platted in 1962 from several former ranch tracts, and residents voted to incorporate as a city in 1966. Granite Shoals has kept growing along the lakefront since, with a year-round population supplemented by a substantial number of weekend and vacation homeowners who come up from the Austin area, especially in spring and summer.
That mix shapes the housing stock. Away from the water, Granite Shoals has a lot of modest, older two- and three-bedroom homes on smaller lots, along with condos and townhomes owners use as low-maintenance getaways. Along the shoreline itself, waterfront homes with private docks carry a different profile — often locked up for weeks at a time between owner visits, then opened back up in a hurry for a weekend on the water. Homes that sit vacant for stretches and then get handed to family members, renters, or property managers are exactly the kind of properties that need a rekey between occupants.
Because so much of the shoreline is privately owned, the city has invested in public access points instead of one large waterfront park — Granite Shoals is known locally as the "City of Parks," with roughly eighteen to nineteen city parks scattered through its residential sections, many with lake access and several with boat ramps. Quarry Park, the largest, nods to the granite mining that gave the city its name. For a locksmith, this pattern means calls come from all over town rather than one commercial district — a car lockout at a boat ramp lot on a Saturday, or a house call a few blocks off the water.
Granite Shoals has relatively little retail or dining of its own, and most residents make the short drive into Marble Falls for groceries and restaurants. What commercial activity exists is concentrated along FM 1431 — self-storage facilities, a few retail storefronts, and small local businesses.
Granite Shoals' lake-house-heavy housing stock is a strong match for our residential rekeying service — a fast, affordable way to make sure a home is secure every time ownership, renters, or property managers change. For waterfront and near-lake homes that sit closed up between visits, we also handle lock repair and new lock installation when weather has worn out exterior hardware. Car and truck lockouts happen at boat ramps, park lots, and driveways alike. For the small businesses and storage operators along FM 1431, we offer commercial rekeying and master key systems, and our 24/7 emergency lockout service covers the after-hours calls that come with a town built around lake living.
Yes. Weekends and evenings fall under our after-hours emergency service, available 24/7, and we come directly to the property. If the lock or key is simply worn out rather than broken, we can often get you in and repair or rekey it on the same visit.
Rekeying is the standard, affordable step whenever a property changes hands, especially one that was rented out or held vacant for stretches of time. We can rekey the home's existing locks during a scheduled visit, usually without needing to replace the hardware itself.
