About us
Schwepper – Precision You Can Trust, at Sea and Beyond
Based in Germany, Schwepper is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of premium marine locks and hardware systems. Our comprehensive product range includes all types of door locks, cabinet locks, keying systems, general and specialized marine fittings, handrail systems, and more – everything a mariner needs, all from a single trusted source. What sets Schwepper apart is not only this one-stop-shop approach but the ability to customize every product to meet the exacting needs of each client.
Our products are engineered for performance and built to last. With an exceptionally low claim rate, outstanding durability, and unmatched flexibility, Schwepper has earned the trust of navies and offshore industries across the globe – sectors where failure is not an option, and equipment must perform flawlessly under continuous 24/7 operation, year after year.
Despite their critical role on board, these components are often still considered C- or D-category items by many shipowners. But when you’re miles from shore, a single faulty lock or hardware malfunction can bring an entire vessel’s operations to a halt. At Schwepper, we understand that reliability in the smallest detail can make the biggest difference.
Schwepper stands for precision, resilience, and trust – invisible in appearance, indispensable in function.
