Simplex Locks McKinney TX Rekey & Replacement (214)838-7730

Looking for a keyless, mechanical lock that delivers security without electronics? Our Simplex lock change service in McKinney, TX offers a reliable, battery-free solution for commercial and residential needs. Simplex locks by Kaba are known for their durability, simplicity, and no-fuss mechanical design—perfect for offices, warehouses, schools, and even rental properties. Whether you need to install a new push-button lock, replace a worn-out one, or reset the code, our mobile locksmith team will be on-site fast with the tools and expertise to get it done right.


Why Using Simplex Locks

Simplex locks are mechanical push-button locks that don’t require batteries, wires, or software. They’re ideal for environments where reliability, low maintenance, and fast access are essential.

Popular in retail back rooms, offices, utility closets, and restricted-access hallways, Simplex locks eliminate the need for keys while maintaining strong mechanical locking.

They come in various formats including knob, lever, deadbolt, and exit trim, and are Grade 1 certified for heavy-duty commercial use.

Simplex is perfect when you want a set-it-and-forget-it solution that doesn’t depend on power, networks, or apps.

Simplex Lock Rekey

While most Simplex locks rely on PIN codes for access, some models still feature key override or removable cores. If you've lost the key or need to reassign access, we can rekey the override cylinder quickly on-site in McKinney.

We also reset combination codes on all Simplex series, including those requiring specialized tools or disassembly.

Resetting a Simplex code is not intuitive—especially for models like the L1000 or 5000 series—so leave it to our pros for fast and secure service.

Smart Locks

Simplex locks are purely mechanical—but that’s by design. Their simplicity is what makes them desirable in areas where electronics would be unreliable or unnecessary.

If you're looking for electronic locks with audit trails and remote access, consider Kaba’s E-Plex series. Otherwise, Simplex is your go-to for mechanical access control without tech overhead.

We help customers determine when Simplex is the better choice versus a full smart system, especially for utility areas, closets, or non-critical doors.

Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith

Installing or resetting a Simplex lock incorrectly can jam the mechanism or lock you out entirely. Many models require specialized pin tools and disassembly to reset the combination.

We come equipped with the proper tools to install, service, or reset your Simplex unit without causing damage or voiding the warranty.

We also make sure the lock is properly aligned and the buttons don’t stick—two common problems with DIY installs.
