ASSA ABLOY Group has acquired Pacific Lock Company for an undisclosed amount. This transaction sees a global leader in access solutions integrate a specialized manufacturer known for its high-quality padlocks and innovative security products. Pacific Lock Company (PACLOCK®), founded in 1998, is a woman-owned and veteran-led family business headquartered in Valencia, California.
PACLOCK has established itself as a leader in security solutions, controlling its manufacturing process end-to-end, from engineering and precision machining to assembly and quality testing. The company offers one of the industry’s broadest padlock portfolios, encompassing solid body, laminated, hidden shackle, hockey puck, transportation, and government-grade designs. Beyond its standard line, PACLOCK specializes in custom-engineered solutions, OEM manufacturing partnerships, and its advanced Bluetooth access control system, PAC-BLU™. Every PACLOCK product is built to set the standard in craftsmanship, reliability, and durability, serving locksmiths, enterprises, and security professionals worldwide.
This acquisition is a strategic move for ASSA ABLOY Group, aiming to bolster its product offerings and reinforce its market position, particularly in North America. PACLOCK’s robust portfolio of specialized padlocks and its innovative PAC-BLU™ technology are highly complementary to ASSA ABLOY’s extensive range of access solutions. The integration will leverage PACLOCK's deep expertise in precision manufacturing and custom security solutions with ASSA ABLOY's global reach and resources. This combination is expected to expand the availability of PACLOCK's trusted products to a broader customer base.
The unified entity will be well-positioned to deliver an enhanced and comprehensive suite of security solutions. This development strengthens the collective capability to meet diverse security needs, continuing to prioritize innovation and quality for customers across various sectors.
