Squire Locks: Key Safe

Squire (formally Henry Squire & Sons Ltd) is one of the UK’s oldest lockmakers — a heritage brand best known for serious padlocks and chain security, especially in the motorcycle, commercial, and site-security world. Squire’s own history traces the business back to 1780, when William Squire began making locks in Willenhall (the Black Country’s lockmaking capital). They even supplied locks to the British Army during the Napoleonic Wars, which is a wildly specific flex that basically translates to: “we’ve been thinking about forced entry since muskets were a performance upgrade.” 

Operationally, the trading entity behind the brand is Henry Squire & Sons Limited.

What Squire is known for

Squire’s modern identity is anchored in high-security padlocks and matching hardened chains / accessories, with the flagship line being Stronghold®. Their own “About” page calls out products like the Stronghold SS100cs as an ultra-high-security production padlock (Squire describe it as the world’s strongest production padlock — not subtle, but neither is a 1kg lump of hardened steel). 

A good example of how the brand positions itself in real-world standards:

• The Squire SS65CS Stronghold is independently listed by Sold Secure with CEN Grade 6 and a Powered Cycle Gold rating, alongside features like hardened components and weather resistance.
