Godrej Locks offers a whole range of architectural hardware and related items for hotels, malls, airports, commercial establishments, transit points, educational institutions, research facilities and so on. On the technology aspect, Godrej has moved way beyond ULTRA (a decade old dimple key technology) to Godrej UltraEXS (angular multi-row pin cylinder technology), Godrej EVVA (tie-up with EVVA of Austria for high security springless locking systems) and SALTO (for integrated project solutions).

Godrej UltraEXS makes unpickability accessible to users of commonly available europrofile mortise locks - the specially designed high precision cylinder can be retrofitted wherever Europrofile mortise locks are used to transform the home into an EXS (Extra Secure) home. While, Godrej EVVA offers a range of padlocks, rim locks and mortise locks. For the first time in India, unpickability will be offered though a springless mechanism. A much higher number of non-interchangeable combinations and master-keying capability of this technology will make Godrej EVVA products ideal for high security residential and commercial applications

Godrej has also tied-up with SALTO for virtual net locking systems, which will give access to projects typically classified as 'infrastructure' - airports, ports, research labs, universities, corporate offices and the like. With SALTO, seemingly modular units can be easily combined in an 'agile' manner to offer an integrated access control solutions for large, complex commercial/infrastructure projects.
