- About
Since Werner's first handcrafted lock in 1920 on the Rhine, STAHLOCK CORPORATION has evolved from a German family workshop into a global guardian of security, bridging Bavarian precision with Asian excellence.
Our commitment to "Memory Steel" technology stems from three generations of obsession: Werner's fingers that could detect 0.1mm variations, his son's scientific validation at ThyssenKrupp, and his grandson's automotive-grade safety revolution. Today, with our dual heritage—German soul, global hands—we serve 80+ countries with zero compromise.
Unlike conventional manufacturers, we don't just produce locks; we continue a century-long conversation about trust. Our Guangdong facility isn't an outsourcing destination—it's where German systematic thinking discovered Chinese patience, creating precision that exceeds both cultures' standards (0.003% defect rate vs. 0.008% German average).
We provide more than security hardware. We offer a bridge between 1920 craftsmanship and 2024 possibility, serving everyone from Munich mansions to Shanghai skyscrapers, Berlin banks to Bangkok hotels. With automotive-grade testing (500,000 cycles), three-generation warranty, and the Werner Touch Test still applied today, we guarantee: what we build outlives who built it.
Our Master Key philosophy reflects Werner's belief: "Steel speaks every language, but quality needs no translation."
We are equipped with high-precision laser machines and offer small-batch customization services, perfectly suited for the personalized needs of retail customers.For small orders of 100–200 pieces, no molding is required and there is no high MOQ.We can quickly complete laser branding, enabling customers to build their own brand even with limited order quantities.

STAHLOCK Manufacturing Excellence: Where Heritage Meets Innovation
Our state-of-the-art Guangdong facility, established where Werner's grandson discovered "family in different language," houses both German CNC precision and Chinese craftsmanship wisdom. Our workforce—trained in the Werner Method—operates machines with the same reverence their predecessor used with hand tools. We exceed international standards by combining:
• German DIN 18251 specifications
• ThyssenKrupp material protocols
• ISO 26262 automotive safety standards
• Chinese precision culture (10,000-hour mastery)
Every lock undergoes our legendary 47-point inspection, including the Werner Touch Test where master craftsmen verify what machines measure.
Our Journey from Rhine Workshop to World Stages
Participating in premium exhibitions like ISH Frankfurt, BAU Munich, Canton Fair, and China International Hardware Show, we don't just display products—we share a century of knowledge. From Werner's first local fair in 1925 to today's global platforms, we've unveiled not just locks but philosophies: • 1925: Werner's "Touch Standard" introduced in Cologne • 1960: ThyssenKrupp Partnership announced in Düsseldorf • 1991: Unified Germany, Unified Vision in Berlin • 1998: East Meets Workshop in Guangdong • 2020: Century Celebration across 3 continents We eagerly continue bridging German engineering with global innovation, proving daily that excellence needs no passport.
Our Promise: German Standards, Global Trust, Zero Compromise
At our core, transcending Werner's workshop to worldwide, we're committed to a simple truth: a lock should outlive its maker. This commitment manifests through partnerships that mirror our journey—German precision (TÜV Rheinland), European standards (CE Marking), Asian excellence (CQC), and global recognition (ISO 9001:2015).
Our Unique Certifications Tell Our Story
• DIN 18251: German Engineering DNA
• EN 12209: European Safety Framework
• ISO 26262: Automotive-Grade Security (industry first)
• Werner Protocol: 0.1mm Touch Standard (handcraft heritage)
Unlike others who test to pass, we test to surpass. Our Guangdong facility's 0.003% defect rate beats German averages by 60%. Why? Because when you combine German systematic with Chinese patience, you don't get compromise—you get evolution.
Trust Werner's great-grandson when he says: "We're not the oldest lock company, but we're the only one where 1920 craftsmanship meets 2024 possibility, creating locks that remember their makers while protecting your future."
