Schlage is particularly noted for its high-security cylinder lines, such as Primus, Everest, and Everest Primus XP, which provide commercial-grade protection. For residential users, the brand produces popular electronic options like the Schlage Encode Plus Smart WiFi Deadbolt, which features keyless entry and remote access. The company emphasizes durability, style, and innovative security technology in all its hardware solutions to protect homes and businesses.
