How Wenzhou City Lock Enterprises ACT these years
From China's "lock capital" to "the world's smart lock city", how Wenzhou lock enterprises act as "locks"
How to make use of this industry event at the door to further integrate the upstream and downstream resources of the industrial chain at home and abroad, accelerate the realization of industrial intelligent transformation, and contribute to building Wenzhou into a world smart lock city has become an urgent problem for many lock enterprises in Wenzhou.
Some people say that Wenzhou people are used to winning by quantity. It makes sense to push back 30 years. However, with the sweeping wave of digitization and the continuous emergence of intelligent products, relying on scientific and technological progress and accelerating technological innovation has become an important "magic weapon" for the transformation and upgrading of most traditional industries in Wenzhou.
Wenzhou, known as the "lock capital of China", is one of the most important lock industry bases in China. From May 28 to 30, the first China (Wenzhou) International Hardware and intelligent lock exhibition will be held in Wenzhou Convention and Exhibition Center. How to make use of this industry event at the door to further integrate upstream and downstream resources of domestic and foreign industrial chains, accelerate the realization of industrial intelligent transformation, and contribute to building Wenzhou into a world intelligent lock city has become an urgent problem for many lock enterprises in Wenzhou.
Make products
The smell of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley
The development of Wenzhou Hardware lock industry can be traced back to the 1980s. Riding the east wind of reform and opening up, a group of Wenzhou people seized the opportunity. A large number of Wenzhou private lock enterprises represented by Tianyu lock industry, Wuzhou lock industry and Ouhai bicycle lock factory (the predecessor of Zhongli group) emerged, gradually forming China's largest lock industry base.
According to Zhan Xianguang, President of Wenzhou Hardware Chamber of Commerce, there are about 2000 hardware lock enterprises in Wenzhou, including more than 580 professional lock manufacturers. The products cover traditional door locks, intelligent locks, bicycle locks, automobile central control locks, industrial cabinet door locks and anti-theft lock cylinders. The annual output of various lock products is more than 600 million, accounting for more than 35% of the national market, The products are exported to more than 130 countries and regions in the world.
Zhan Xianguang told reporters that although Wenzhou was awarded the title of "lock capital of China" in September 2002, it is also afraid of deep alleys when making products. Especially in recent years, with the continuous development of the national lock industry, the phenomenon of product homogenization is becoming more and more serious, and the market competition is intensifying, which is giving birth to the gradual improvement of brand awareness of Wenzhou enterprises.
To this end, kaidishi Hardware lock enterprises represented by a number of well-known leading enterprises in the industry, such as VOC, Zhongli, GM, Tianyu, Carter and Jinkai, have already stepped forward and actively carried out intelligent transformation. "More than 500 enterprises are expected to participate in the hardware and intelligent lock exhibition, and the number of visitors is expected to be about 20000. We hope to further launch the brand of Wenzhou Hardware Locks through the opportunity of the exhibition." Zhan Xianguang said.
Expand the market
Lock enterprises to cultivate internal skills
The "interconnection of all things" in the new infrastructure era makes the concept of intelligent security go deep into the homes of ordinary people. Since ancient times, for traditional locks, the key is the only opening tool, which brings a lot of inconvenience to users. For example, it is very cumbersome to manage and use the equipment rooms of telecom power, the distribution of hotel rooms, college student dormitories, etc., and occasionally encounter the trouble caused by the loss of keys.
In contrast, the intelligent door lock has a variety of user characteristics such as fingerprint, password, face recognition and remote unlocking. It can also remotely distribute the unlocking password, temporary password and obtain the door lock status in real time. For special places such as telecommunications, power, schools and hotels, it can not only save time, but also be safe and convenient.
With the rapid development of biotechnology and Internet of things information technology, Wenzhou lock enterprises, which have always been good at capturing the air outlet, naturally found this business opportunity early. Tianyu lock industry, one of the "top ten lock kings in China", successfully developed China's first fingerprint lock as early as 2000. Today, kaidishi, weioshi, Zhongli, GM and other enterprises have developed into well-known brand enterprises in the domestic intelligent lock industry and participated in the formulation of industry standards. For example, Zhejiang kaidishi Industrial Co., Ltd. has set up a provincial intelligent lock Research Institute, and the laboratory of Zhejiang Zhongli Group Co., Ltd. has passed the national SNAs certification, which ensures the stamina of the development of the industry.
According to the municipal Hardware Chamber of Commerce, the output of intelligent locks in Wenzhou will reach 3.2 million in 2020, accounting for about 23% of the domestic market. As the core product of family intelligent security products, intelligent door lock not only meets the needs of protecting consumers' life and property safety, but also changes people's lifestyle. According to the estimation of the national lock information center, the current penetration rate of intelligent locks in China is about 6%. Compared with 60% in Japan, South Korea and other countries, the market potential and development space are huge. Intelligent lock will become a new growth point for the development of Wenzhou lock industry.

At the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Commerce announced the list of 64 newly recognized national foreign trade transformation and upgrading bases in 2020, "national foreign trade transformation and upgrading base (Ouhai lock)" in Ouhai District, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, which is also the second national foreign trade transformation and upgrading base in Ouhai District after Ouhai glasses foreign trade transformation and upgrading base, It is also the fourth "national" gold business card won by Wenzhou after "China lock capital", "China intelligent lock industry base" and "China lock export base (Wenzhou)".
The person in charge of Ouhai District Bureau of Commerce told reporters that compared with other major lock producing areas in China, Ouhai has a complete range of locks, including mechanical door locks, intelligent door locks, shared bicycle locks, industrial cabinet door locks, automobile central locks, padlocks, password locks, etc. Therefore, Ouhai locks have their own unique advantages in foreign trade export.
