Seamless access and a safer world.

A simple ideal, yet ultimate necessity. For more than a century Allegion's brands have been recognised for category leading products, and innovative security solutions. Our strong reputation for quality is rooted in businesses from as early as 1750, adding to the breadth of our company’s global heritage and pioneering spirit.

From inventing the “panic release bar” exit device in 1908 to pioneering the first-ever electric-controlled lock, our brands have been innovators for almost as long as people have locked doors. This entrepreneurial spirit is at the core of who we are.

Today our brands continue to innovate and develop leading-edge solutions through engineering, industrial design, and technology, as well as strategic partnerships and acquisitions.

Access and security solutions for every industry.

From aged care and healthcare, to education, hospitality, commercial, retail, residential and apartments, our mechanical and electronic product solutions can be found wherever you turn a key, tap a card, or move through an automated access point. Every day, we open up doors to millions of people - helping them move through a safer world.

A secure future.

Never has security been more of a priority than it is today: for home or business owners, users or visitors of public, residential, commercial and infrastructure facilities. Access and security systems must meet the needs of our evolving world, with increasing numbers of people requiring different levels of access – residents, employees, staff, clients, visitors, suppliers, couriers and more.

We recognise that the future of the security industry lies in addressing the needs of an increasingly connected world. Electronic solutions do not replace our mechanical products – they make them more powerful. Our pioneering brands are redefining security, inventing new technology: everything from mechanical locks to electronic access control, keeping every solution simple and integrated.
