About locks; of a kind used for furniture (key, combination or electrically operated), of base metal

HS code 830130 covers a wide range of locks used for furniture, including key, combination, and electrically operated locks made of base metal. These locks play a crucial role in the furniture industry, providing security and protection for various furniture items, from cabinets and drawers to desks and armoires. As an essential component of many household and commercial furnishings, the demand for these locks is closely tied to the overall health and growth of the furniture manufacturing and retail sectors.

Production process

The production of locks covered under HS code 830130 typically involves a combination of metalworking techniques, such as casting, stamping, and machining. Manufacturers may start with raw metal alloys, which are then shaped, cut, and assembled into the final lock mechanisms. The incorporation of electronic components for electrically operated locks adds an additional layer of complexity to the production process.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 830130 locks include base metals (such as steel, brass, or aluminum), mechanical components (springs, pins, tumblers), and in the case of electrically operated locks, electronic parts (motors, sensors, circuit boards). Specialized machinery and tools, as well as skilled labor, are also essential for the efficient and precise manufacturing of these locks.

Production outputs

The locks produced under HS code 830130 are primarily used in the furniture industry, where they are installed in a wide range of furniture items, including 940320 Furniture; wooden, for bedroom and 940330 Furniture; wooden, for office furniture. These locks may also be used in other applications, such as 940320 Furniture; wooden, for bedroom cabinetry and 940340 Furniture; wooden, for kitchen furniture. The output of this industry is an important input for the broader furniture manufacturing and retail sectors.
