A physical key can be copied without your knowledge. An employee badge can be lent to a friend. When access accountability actually matters, whether for a server room, a records closet, or a restaurant after a break-in, physical keys are not the right tool. WOW Locks designs and installs commercial access control across Austin: keycard, fob, keypad and biometric, with credential management that revokes access without rekeying and, on systems that keep logs, a record of who entered which door and when. Every job is a custom quote after we see the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does access control installation cost for a small business?
Access control is a custom quote because it depends on the number of doors, the readers and the credentials. The dispatcher asks about your doors, arranges a site visit and quotes the work before it starts.
What is the difference between access control and a smart lock?
A smart lock secures one door and is managed from an app. Access control manages several doors with credentials such as cards, fobs or fingerprints, and can record who entered and when. Access control suits businesses with staff and multiple entrances.
Can you set up keycard access for multiple employees?
Yes. Systems are set up with a credential for each person and rules for which doors each can open. When someone leaves, their credential is removed rather than rekeying every lock.
Do you install biometric access control?
Yes, WOW Locks quotes fingerprint readers as part of access control. Biometric hardware varies, so the quote depends on the readers and the doors involved and comes after a site visit.
Can access control be added to an existing door?
Often yes. The door, the frame and the power available decide what hardware fits. A site visit confirms whether electric strikes or magnetic locks work on your door before a quote is final. Magnetic locks and electric strikes on exit doors must release for egress under fire and building code, so the site visit includes the exit path and request-to-exit hardware.
Can access control connect to my alarm or cameras?
Often. Many commercial access control systems can connect to alarm and camera systems so a door event starts a recording or an alert. Whether yours can depends on the existing equipment, and the site visit confirms it before the quote.
Do you offer cloud-based administration?
Cloud-managed systems let an administrator add or revoke credentials from any browser without a local server. The site visit decides whether a cloud or on-site system fits your doors, and any monthly platform fee is disclosed before the quote.
Is WOW Locks licensed to do this work in Texas?
Yes. WOW Locks LLC holds Texas DPS (TOPS) license B10595301, which you can verify on the Texas DPS TOPS portal before anyone arrives. The company is also insured and bonded.

Austin, TX
Exceptional customer service! I found myself in an embarrassing/unfortunate situation in which I was locked out of both my vehicle AND my home. Miguel responded quickly and in the short time frame of his commute over to my home, a fellow neighbor was able to help me get back in. Even after I let Miguel know, he still stopped by to make sure everything was good. That alone speaks to the level of care this team brings.

Terrific service. I locked myself out of the house on a Friday night. After reaching out to them, they gave a reasonable quote and a good quick ETA. The responding technician showed up within about 25 min and got me in without any damages or hidden fees. I would definitely recommend them.

We needed three cabinets opened. It was a Thursday and the large company we usually use could not get out until the following Thursday. Wow came out the next day. The cabinets had to be rekeyed and they came out right away when the keys arrived.
