Locks and building hardware covers a wide range of products fitted onto doors and windows used in residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
The products have been and still are sold through traditional trade outlets such as builders merchants, architectural ironmongers, locksmiths and DIY stores. However, with the growth in PVCu/composite doors and windows, many building hardware manufacturers are now supplying their products direct to door and window fabricators.
