Security
Providing Protection & Security
Our safety and security solutions are designed to deliver protection and peace of mind in an ever-evolving world.
At the foundation of this segment is Master Lock, a brand that for over 100 years has been recognized globally as the authentic and enduring name in padlocks and security products. Adding to our portfolio strength, Yale and August bring advanced smart residential security solutions to both single-family homes and multi-tenant properties, blending convenience with cutting-edge technology.
Together, these brands reflect our commitment to innovation across both traditional and connected safety and security. We continue to expand our portfolio with new mechanical solutions—such as combination locks, key-based padlocks, and fireproof safes—while also embracing opportunities in an increasingly digital landscape. This includes growing our commercial safety offerings through solutions like Master Lock’s cLOTO system.
By leveraging the combined strength of the Master Lock, Yale, August, and Sentry Safe brands, we are driving innovation across our portfolio while deepening our channel partnerships to extend the reach and impact of our products.
