Locksmith Service in San Marcos, TX

San Marcos is the Hays County seat, about 30 miles southwest of Austin on I-35. ZIP 78666 covers street addresses, and 78667 is PO boxes only. The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment is at 201 San Marcos Springs Drive, and San Marcos Premium Outlets is at 3939 S Interstate 35, off Exit 200.

Student Housing and Move-In Rekeys

Texas State University reported 44,596 students university-wide in fall 2025, Round Rock campus and online students included. Its off-campus housing listings include student apartments on Craddock Avenue, Aquarena Springs Drive, North Interstate 35, Mill Street, Thorpe Lane and Sadler Drive. Some communities lease by the bed, so one unit can hold several unrelated tenants. A rekey between leases makes old keys stop working without replacing the hardware. Check your lease and landlord first, then call with the address and the number of locks.

Historic Square and Older Buildings

The Hays County Courthouse, finished in 1908, anchors the Square, and the historic district around it, listed on the National Register in 1992, has buildings from roughly 1875 to 1949. Older doors often carry original or mismatched hardware. Describe the lock when you call, and the quote for a repair, rekey or replacement comes before dispatch.

Situations We Handle in San Marcos

  • Rekey between student leases

    A rental unit or house changes tenants and the manager wants old keys cut off. The technician rekeys each lock so earlier keys stop working and hands over the new keys, tested at the door.

  • Older lock on a Square storefront

    A shop on the Square has a street-door lock that sticks or no longer turns smoothly. The technician checks the lock and the door, then repairs, rekeys or replaces the cylinder. The quote comes on the call before anyone is dispatched.

  • Car locked in an outlet lot off I-35

    A vehicle is locked with the keys inside in a large retail lot. The technician tries non-destructive entry first, opens the door and checks the key or fob before leaving.

Are San Marcos rates different from Austin rates?

No. WOW Locks uses one published rate card statewide: $89 for a car lockout and $109 for a home or business lockout before tax, the same as in Austin. After-hours or distance add-ons, if they apply, are quoted on the call before dispatch.
