History
From mechanics to technology.
AYR began as a purely mechanical locksmith company. After more than 60 years in the industry, it has evolved towards technology without losing its traditional essence. Our long experience and our innovation are today our greatest strength.
Innovating since 1963.
Over the years we have designed timeless door handles found in countless homes, as well as bolder collections exploring unconventional finishes and shapes. We pioneered the first installation-free magnetic door latch and AYR’s patented CLOSE system, a solution that brings privacy to any room and has become one of our greatest successes.
