Manufactures cabinet locks, electronic access systems and mechanisms for OEM and distributor channels through Security Products. The range serves mailboxes, ignition systems, medical cabinetry, secured narcotics inventory, vending and cash-containment equipment, combining mechanical locks with credential-enabled electronic systems. Factory sales teams, engineers, independent representatives and distributors serve primarily U.S. customers, while a substantial portion is adapted to customer specifications.

Production is U.S.-based, with certain electronics sourced from Asia. Revenue is primarily recognized from individual product shipments under purchase orders rather than long-term commitments.
Operates as a controlled company through NL Industries within an NL–Valhi–Contran ownership chain. Manufacturing remains subject to environmental and worker-safety requirements, with wastewater-discharge processes centralized at Mauldin.
