Strattec Security Corporation

Strattec Security Corporation designs and manufactures automotive access systems, covering vehicle entry, closure and security. The company traces its origins to the automotive lock division of Briggs & Stratton Corporation, founded in 1908, and was spun off as an independent business in 1995. It describes itself as one of the world's largest producers of automotive power access and security systems, serving the automotive, mobility and aftermarket sectors.

Its product line is organised around three areas: Permission, Motion and Hold. The Permission pillar comprises locks and keys with digital key capabilities built on RF, BLE and UWB wireless technologies. Motion covers power access systems for vehicle entry and trunk or gate operation. Hold covers precision latches for confident closure. The company also supplies original-equipment-licensed products to the automotive aftermarket.

Technical work spans vehicle access technology, wireless and digital key systems, power access, precision latch engineering, automotive security and mechanical lock and key design. Strattec is headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and operates through joint ventures in Germany, Brazil and China.
