Study Overview
The first drafts of locks appeared in ancient Egypt more than 3000 years ago. The Romans then developed metal locks, but the first "modern" locks appeared under the reign of Louis XVI, also called the king of locksmiths. He promoted this art, especially in Picardy and more particularly in Vimeu with locks similar to those we know today. This study will focus on two distinct activities:
Manufacture of locks and hardware; Metal carpentry work (armouring of external doors, installation of fire doors, etc.).

The global access control market is expanding, driven by the growth of new technologies and wireless security systems. The U.S. market, one of the largest markets for metal locks and hinges, is growing rapidly and is expected to continue to expand in the coming years. In Italy, the lock market generated a turnover of €1.47 billion in 2017, part of which is exported abroad. Recently, the production value of locks and hardware in Italy has shown a positive development. This data feeds into future growth projections. The industry is largely dependent on several factors and especially on the market for new buildings, doors and windows. In addition, the digital revolution is expected to have a significant impact on the market, due to changing needs on both the supply and demand sides.
