What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

The minimum order quantity (MOQ) depends on the product category and whether you are ordering standard or custom items. Below is a general guide to help you plan your purchase.

Standard Products

For standard, off-the-shelf hardware products, the MOQ is relatively low:

Lock bodies: Typically 200–500 pieces per model, depending on the finish and size. High-demand finishes such as satin nickel or matte black may have lower thresholds due to regular production runs.

Lock cylinders: Usually 300–500 pieces per specification. Keyed-alike orders may require a higher MOQ to accommodate keying setup.

Door handles and levers: Generally 100–300 pieces per model and finish combination. Popular styles are produced in larger batches, allowing smaller minimums.

Hinges: Typically 500–1,000 pieces per size and material, as hinges are high-volume items manufactured in standard runs.

Custom and OEM Products

If you require custom finishes, logos, packaging, or entirely bespoke designs, the MOQ is higher to cover tooling and setup costs:

Custom finishes or PVD coatings usually start at 500–1,000 pieces per color. OEM projects with new molds or designs typically require 1,000–3,000 pieces or more, depending on complexity.
