Simplex locks are a trusted solution for businesses and organizations in Plano looking for keyless security without the complexity of electronics. Known for their mechanical pushbutton design, Simplex locks offer durability, convenience, and security—especially for commercial offices, gyms, warehouses, and storage rooms. Our mobile locksmiths are trained in Simplex lock change, rekey, installation, and combination resetting across all models and door types in Plano.

Why Using Simplex Locks

Simplex locks, manufactured by Kaba, are fully mechanical pushbutton locks that require no batteries or wiring. They’re a go-to solution for businesses seeking simple, secure access without the hassle of keys.

Popular in commercial, healthcare, and institutional settings, Simplex locks provide a reliable solution that’s easy to manage. Users enter a code to unlock the door, which can be changed quickly without removing the lock.

The benefits include zero electronics, no power failures, and rugged construction that holds up under heavy daily use. Simplex is ideal for access control in utility closets, offices, and restricted areas.

Simplex Lock Rekey

Some Simplex models include key override functions with a standard or interchangeable core cylinder. These keys can be rekeyed or replaced if lost or if you want to update access.

In Plano, rekeying a Simplex lock with key override usually costs $35 to $75, depending on the core type. We also stock Kaba-compatible IC cores and can match your facility’s master key system if needed.

If your lock doesn't have a keyed cylinder, we can reset the mechanical combination for security or employee turnover.

Smart Locks

Simplex locks are mechanical and do not offer smart functionality. However, some models can be upgraded to electronic versions in the E-Plex series by Kaba, which supports audit trails, card access, and PIN codes.

We install both Simplex mechanical locks and the E-Plex line if you want the same look with electronic access. This hybrid flexibility makes Simplex a smart long-term investment for evolving access needs.

If you're unsure whether to go fully electronic, we can guide you through the differences between Simplex and E-Plex models.

Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith

Installing a Simplex lock incorrectly can lead to jamming, door damage, or code malfunctions. Programming the code also requires careful handling of internal pins and parts.

Our locksmiths ensure clean installs, smooth latching, and functional programming—plus we back our work with a 6-month warranty.

For commercial doors, it's always safer and faster to use a pro with the proper tools and experience with Simplex models.
