Master Lock has manufacturing facilities in China, Mexico and the USA…
As of 5/24/2023 Master Lock’s Milwaukee plant once employed more than 1,000 workers. Now it’s closing for good. Link
Previous information: “All of the internal parts for our locks are made in Milwaukee WI USA, then assembled in Nogales, Mexico. Locks that are imported are made in mostly in China with some door hardware being made in the Philippines.”
The ALL “Made in USA” Lock can ‘NO LONGER’ be found for Home, Personal, Business and Industry use. The Locking Cables for your bike are made in China.
Master Lock claims to have been “Supporting American Jobs since 1921” and use “products that are made from component parts manufactured in the USA”. When we searched for product origin of their various Master Locks, we found it hard to identify, thru the specification information tab, where they were made. Back in 2011, upon contacting a Master Lock Company Customer Solutions Representative, we received this information:
“Some of Master Lock’s Padlocks have multiple sources of supply so it is not possible to specify a country of origin strictly by the model number. The best way to identify the country of origin is to review the back of the package on a specific lock.”
Note: Back in 2014, Master Lock has a page dedicated to Supporting American Jobs that lists every Padlock (keyed and combination) that is American made (now in 2015 the page no longer exists).
Note: Country of Origin is subject to change on all of the Master Lock products; always verify the product your searching for is US made. See Phone # (below) and call for verification of product origin.

The whole make of the locks are different. Not as good quality as they ounce were. I have my lock that I used back in High School. I graduated in 1989 and it still works perfectly with no issues!! Somehow I remember the combination like it was just yesterday that I was using it. On the back it says that it was made in Milwaukee WI USA. Sad that they are not solely made here in the states any more!! Just more jobs that has gone over seas somewheres instead of staying here where they are needed!!
I have an old master combination lock (Made in USA). works every time without fail. just purchased a set of 2 locks (made in china) that require 3 letters instead of the normal numerical locks.
They are HORRIBLE!!!
Oftentimes it takes me as many as 5 attempts before it opens.
I would definitely NOT purchase these locks!
Every lock I was considering purchasing from Master Lock was Made in China. If they want my business back, I am going to need to see the Made in the USA label.
Shakil, that particular master lock, the 3EURD it is not “Made in USA”.
If you wish to contact Master their NetMail contact page is listed in post above.
They have a Made in USA page which is also shown at bottom area of post you may be able to find an American made lock that suits your needs there.
Have a great day. Steve
