Analysis of the Future Development Trends of China's Lock Industry

2025-09-03

The competition among domestic low-end products has matured. Where will the future development direction of the lock industry lie? The domestic lock market mainly produces medium and low-end lock products. As the lock industry is labor-intensive, the entry threshold is low, the degree of specialization is not high, and the variety of high-end products is very scarce.

First, car locks have become a new force

With the continuous expansion of China's automotive industry, the development prospects of automotive locks are promising. The Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China announced that China's auto production ranked fourth in the world in 2004, exceeding 5 million units and reaching 5.0705 million units, an increase of 14.11% compared with the previous year. Among them, sedans account for approximately 47%, buses about 26%, and trucks about 27%. The increase in car production indicates a promising market prospect for car locks, especially for smart anti-theft locks in sedans, which have huge market potential.

Second, furniture and office locks have become the new favorites

With the improvement of home and office conditions and the increase of business space, the market for furniture and office locks is getting larger and larger. At present, the demand for various types of drawer locks, wardrobe locks, luggage locks, cabinet locks, stationery cabinet locks, tongue locks, interlocking locks, bathroom locks, safe locks and other furniture and office locks is good. These locks are closely related to industries such as real estate, furniture, and property management, with an increasing variety of designs and better quality requirements.

Three, high-end locks are the direction

With the continuous deepening of China's opening up to the outside world, high-end buildings have developed rapidly, and the prospects for the high-end lock market are optimistic. The investment in lock technology by China's lock industry is increasing year by year, and the market demand for high-end locks is also growing. It is the developed countries that have a strong demand for high-end locks. The lock-making industry in our country is seizing the opportunity to enter the high-end lock market. Wenzhou's Qiangqiang Group, through a joint approach, has combined over 20 lock-making enterprises, integrated resources, and quickly gained a foothold in the lock market. As a result, lock-making enterprises from South Korea and other countries have flocked to seek a share of the pie.

Iv. Door Lock

With the improvement of people's living standards and housing conditions, it has been determined that door locks have become part of the lock market. At present, the door lock market in our country is dominated by mechanical locks, which mainly include ball door locks, handle door locks and pin door locks. However, pin door locks are superior to other types of door locks in terms of anti-theft performance and application scope, and thus have more potential. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the different levels of demand for household door locks in urban and rural areas and treat them differently.

The enterprise is developing fingerprint locks. Because the lock has a high technical content and highlights more humanized and personalized features, the product profit is also relatively high. With the accelerated pace of lock product replacement, good locks will gradually become the mainstream in the lock industry. Other domestic lock-making enterprises have also successively developed products such as IC card electronic door locks, electronic password locks, encrypted magnetic card door locks, building intercom anti-theft systems, and valve locks.
