Abloy Oy

What they make

According to their website, Abloy Oy designs and manufactures mechanical and electromechanical locking products, including cylinders, padlocks, cam and cabinet locks, switch locks, rim locks, drop bolts, lock cases, escape hardware, industrial locks, door handles, and door closers. Its core mechanical cylinders use a rotating-disc mechanism rather than springs or pins, intended to resist wear, jamming, and physical attack. The company also offers digital access systems: ABLOY PULSE, a battery- and cable-free locking platform that draws power from key insertion into the cylinder, aimed at offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and other sites with changing access needs; and ABLOY eCLIQ, a combined electronic-and-mechanical digital key system. Production takes place at the company's Joensuu, Finland factory, established in 1968, which the site describes as using lean material flow, an automated storage and retrieval system, and a modern surface-treatment line, employing around 800 people and producing roughly 3.4 million products per year. The company traces its lock technology back to a 1919 patent and became part of the ASSA ABLOY group after a 1994 merger.
