What Allegion does

Makes door locks, security hardware and access-control systems (Schlage, Von Duprin, LCN) for commercial and residential buildings.

Products are specified by architects and door-hardware consultants for each building, then bought by contractors through distributors, so approval at design stage drives sales; after installation, replacements and upgrades follow. It was spun out of Ingersoll Rand in 2013, and the Americas are its main market.

Products and services

  • Mechanical locks/hardware
  • Electronic access control
  • Exit devices (Von Duprin)
  • Door closers (LCN)

Customers

  • Commercial builders/contractors
  • Institutions (schools, hospitals)
  • Homeowners (Schlage retail)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Industrials
  • Building products
  • Security hardware/access control

What could go right

  • Non-residential construction/renovation
  • Electronic security mix shift

What could go wrong

  • Commercial construction cyclicality
  • Residential housing slowdown

Moat: narrow (brand, distribution, installed base). Schlage brand recognition and code-compliance expertise create sticky specification with architects.
