Although the electronic lock has begun to enter the public's field of vision, its current market share in the Chinese market is still very low. The data shows that at present in the domestic civil lock market, the application of intelligent electronic locks is mainly concentrated in high-end hotels, apartments and villas, and the market share in the ordinary household market is less than 5%. This means that most domestic markets are still controlled by traditional mechanical locks.

Recently, in the economically developed areas such as Beishangguang and the southeast coast, the new market share of intelligent electronic locks can be increased. Up to 10% to 20%.

Convenience is a more important advantage of electronic locks than safety.” Luo Xianhao said that it is very troublesome to lose the key to the mechanical lock, and the electronic lock unlocking method is very diverse. You can enter a password or fingerprint. If you can connect to the Internet, you can also open more doors for your family. If you have a thief, you can automatically take a photo alarm. You can send a temporary electronic key to the cleaning staff. In addition, due to the improvement of management efficiency, rental leasing companies will have huge demand for electronic locks.

According to Magnus, president of ASSA ABLOY Asia Pacific, the current electronic lock and home contact are not universal, and the future intelligent electronic lock will play the role of intelligent interactive interface.

Data show that in 2015, the market size of China's lock industry was 126.7 billion yuan, of which traditional mechanical locks accounted for the majority of the market. Experts predict that in the next three to five years, smart electronic locks are expected to enter the market penetration stage. It is expected that by 2021, the market size of China's lock industry will exceed 180 billion yuan.
