Schlage is an American lock manufacturer that produces padlocks, lock cylinders, electronic locks, and various other lock related equipment.

Schlage deals primarily with pin-tumbler locks, though older locks have also used wafer designs.
History
Schlage was founded in San Fransisco, California in 1920 by Walter Schlage. Schlage's original locks were focused on push-button combination locks.[1] In 1927, Charles Kendrick became president of Schlage amidst financial troubles. Schlage and Kendrick went on to successfully revive the company.
In 1974 Schlage was purchased by Ingersoll Rand and became part of the Ingersoll Rand Door Hardware Group.
