Market Overview 

Mechanical cylinder locks are physical contraptions that are generally deployed to keep a compartment or door locked when not in use. A mechanical cylinder lock can only be unlocked with the help of its corresponding key, limiting entry within specific premises to certain individuals. Mechanical cylinder locks increase the safety & security of valuable items inside residential buildings and commercial complexes. 

Market Dynamics  

The increasing product demand from newly constructed residential buildings and rising product adoption for restricted entry in limited access commercial areas are the primary factors driving the market growth. The construction and erection of new residential buildings on a global scale are one of the influential primary factors to bolster the demand for mechanical cylinder locks, with doors and windows needed to be locked and secured at various times. The increase in product sales and incorporation for fitting on doors and cabinets in workplaces and shopping complexes, along with all hospitality centers such as hotel penthouses and stand-alone resorts, would boost the market growth during the forecast period. The need to fit mechanical cylinder locks in personal office cabinets and distinctive room doors would further incite the development of the market. However, the presence of counterfeit items and the threat of substitution from digital door locks might hamper the market growth. The prevalence of low-grade, counterfeit items might act as a restraining barrier to the growth of the market during the forecast period, as forged products tend to become dysfunctional within a short period. The growing consumer interest for smart cylinder locks with electro-mechanical parts would provide lucrative opportunities for the market in the coming years. The detailed technology research & innovation and subsequent commercialization of smart cylinder locks have piqued consumer interest and attracted considerable interest from tech-savvy consumers, providing key players with new opportunities for product sales and business expansion initiatives in the ensuing years. 

Market Segmentation

It is also less vulnerable to attempts of opening a lock without the proper key, which would bolster the growth of the segment over the forecast period. 

In terms of Application, the Lockers segment is poised to register a robust CAGR of 4.7% during 2021-2027. The incremental surge in installation of personal lockers in shared workplaces and office complexes would boost the segment growth in the ensuing period, as the purchase of mechanical cylinder locks increases for security and safeguarding purposes.
