Paxton wireless lock guide
PaxLock Pro wireless electronic door hardware
PaxLock can reduce wiring disruption on suitable openings, but it still requires a door survey, compatible lock preparation, wireless design, battery service plan and documented emergency behavior.
Published planning figures
Paxton technical data for applicable PaxLock Pro variants provides the following reference figures. Confirm the exact US model, trim, lock body and current technical data sheet before procurement.
| Item | Published reference | Design implication |
|---|---|---|
| Battery | Four AA 1.5 V alkaline batteries. | Define approved batteries, replacement interval, low-battery response and responsible party. |
| Battery operation | Published reference up to approximately 55,000 operations. | Traffic, temperature, radio conditions and user behavior can reduce actual service life. |
| Typical traffic | Reference of up to about 75 uses per day for the cited variant. | High-traffic or perimeter openings may be better served by wired hardware. |
| Wireless range | Typical published reference around 15 m / 50 ft. | Survey walls, metal, doors, interference and bridge or connector placement at the actual site. |
| Platforms | Selected models operate with Net2 or Paxton10 wireless infrastructure. | Confirm model, firmware, connector/bridge capacity, credentials and supported release. |
Wireless connection path
Where PaxLock fits—and where it may not
Good candidate
Interior offices, classrooms, amenities or similar openings with compatible preparation and manageable traffic.
Survey carefully
Fire-rated assemblies, heavy doors, unusual handing, weather exposure, accessibility and existing mechanical key systems.
Consider wired control
High-traffic, perimeter, high-security or continuously monitored openings may justify wired controllers and powered locks.
Maintenance responsibility
Battery replacement, firmware, spare parts, audit checks and mechanical service need named ownership.

Survey doors for PaxLock
We can verify the door, lock preparation, traffic, credentials and wireless path before recommending PaxLock or a wired alternative.
Official Paxton software, firmware and support
Use these manufacturer-owned portals for current downloads, release notes, manuals, advisories and technical resources. 360 Technology Group links to official sources and does not copy or host firmware files.
Update carefully: confirm the exact model, region, hardware revision, installed version, prerequisites, required intermediate releases, support entitlement, integrations, backup, maintenance window, rollback limitations and post-update tests. The wrong package or sequence can interrupt service or prevent a downgrade.
Some portals require a customer, dealer, certified-technician or active-support login. Cloud-managed products may update automatically and may not offer a public firmware file.
