Exhibits
REAL's current supply range spans high-security mechanical locks, keyless and smart access products, mechanical combination locks, specialized locks for infrastructure equipment and battery-free NFC locking systems, with customization available for different infrastructure or product requirements. A featured battery-free product is the RL-11466 NFC Rugged Steel Padlock - Max Series, an NFC padlock powered through NFC energy harvesting so routine battery replacement is eliminated for large-scale deployments. The RL-11466 uses NFC for access and then a side push button to trigger an auto-pop shackle, providing a quick workflow that is designed for one-handed opening after authorization. Its published dimensions are 72 × 66 × 22 mm, with a 66 mm padlock size, a 57 × 46 mm antenna and a 9 mm shackle, while the body material is specified as SAE 12L14. The model is specified as battery-free, with NFC as the access method and NFC energy harvesting as the power source, so the lock does not require an installed battery to operate the electronic access function. The 9 mm shackle is presented as a physical-security feature for demanding environments, while the maintenance-free power approach is intended for multi-site roll-outs where service time and downtime need to be reduced. Listed applications for the RL-11466 include smart lockers in gyms, leisure centres and workplaces, tool storage and industrial cabinets using padlockable hasps, shared storage in schools and universities, rental-equipment or asset storage requiring keyless access, and facility-management projects seeking maintenance-free security. OEM options for this NFC padlock include logo engraving or printing, color customization and model adaptations for different door thicknesses and mounting requirements, extending the standard product into brand-integration programs. REAL also presents maintenance-free NFC solutions in connection with fitness-equipment environments, while its broader electronic-mechanical capability is intended to integrate electronic access functions into conventional mechanical locking architectures. Across these products, the company's stated supply model combines lock hardware, access technology, Master Key planning, OEM manufacturing and engineering support rather than treating the lock body as a standalone component.
Company profile
REAL LOCKS & SECURITY CO., LTD. is a Taiwan-based lock manufacturer founded in 1972, with more than 53 years of experience designing and producing high-security mechanical locks and keyless locking products for industrial, commercial and infrastructure applications. The company describes an evolution from a family-run factory into a global supplier serving government agencies, transportation operators, industrial facility managers and international lock brands, while keeping engineering, testing and production of its core technologies in-house in Taiwan. Its technical foundation includes a proprietary disc-detainer cylinder architecture that removes conventional springs and pins, together with designs intended to resist picking, bumping and drilling and to support large, scalable Master Key deployments. For large facilities, REAL provides Master Key Systems with up to 20,000 unique key codes and also offers complete Master Key planning and code traceability as part of its system-level support. The company combines mechanical lock engineering with keyless access development, including mechanical combination locks with override keys, battery-free NFC smart locks for mobile authorization and hybrid lock systems tailored to modern infrastructure. REAL reports more than 100 international patents and supports OEM and ODM programs with custom designs, logo embossing, packaging, Master Key configuration and engineering assistance that can extend from prototyping through production. Its OEM and ODM activity is described as serving leading security brands in Europe, the United States and Asia, while its partner base can include system integrators, global distributors, facility managers and brand owners. REAL's tamper-resistance approach combines springless disc-detainer cylinders with anti-drill plates, steel-ball inserts and hardened casings, and it also describes mechanisms designed to disengage under torque so internal components are less likely to be damaged. Environmental sealing and anti-shock design are part of its durability approach for real-world use, alongside lock configurations intended for harsh weather, high-risk locations and high-traffic operating environments. The company positions its locking systems for critical infrastructure and other managed environments, including railway signal cabinets, smart bike docking stations, control panels, utility boxes, logistics vehicles and smart lockers. Its development direction also includes integrating electronic functions into mechanical lock systems, with patented lock-cylinder technology intended for varied applications and easier management of locking deployments. For battery-free access control, REAL describes NFC solutions that do not require batteries or wiring and that can be used for mobile or cloud-based authorization, reducing the need for battery service in distributed installations.
