Allegion, a global security solutions provider, outlined its strategic shift toward electronics and software-based security at the JPMorgan Industrials Conference 2026. The company generates over $4 billion in revenue with 25% EBITDA margins, with electronics now representing more than 30% of total revenue. The firm is transitioning from mechanical hardware to electromechanical solutions whilst leveraging automation and AI to improve efficiency. Its aftermarket segment accounts for nearly half of overall revenue. Allegion expects high single-digit to low double-digit growth in electronics, though the residential market may contract slightly in 2026. The company operates in over 120 countries through two divisions, offering locks, door closers, exit devices, electronic access control systems and steel doors.
