Lowe & Fletcher
Lowe & Fletcher is a long-established British manufacturer of locking systems for industry, best known for high-volume, application-specific locks like camlocks, quarter-turns, compression locks, and electronic/keypad solutions used on things like enclosures, cabinets, lockers, post/parcel units, and industrial equipment. They’re a sixth-generation, family-owned business with roots going back to 1889, when John Lowe and Thomas Fletcher founded a lockmaking firm in Willenhall in the Black Country—one of the historic heartlands of UK lockmaking.
Today, Lowe & Fletcher forms part of the Lowe & Fletcher Group, which describes two main divisions: Locking Systems (industrial/OEM locks) and Fire Safety (smoke and fire containment systems).
Operationally, their Locking Systems division includes UK operations based around the West Midlands (e.g., Wednesbury, WS10 7DE) and they state they have multiple operational sites across Europe and the US to serve local and specialist markets.
On the product side, their camlock range alone spans mini camlocks, standard camlocks, slamlocks, and IP-rated water-resistant variants (with application-driven options like tool/coin operation and different cam geometries).
