As demand for intelligent access control continues to grow across residential and commercial markets, Chinese smart lock and smart door manufacturer TENON is strengthening its position as an integrated technology and manufacturing partner for global customers.
TENON specializes in the development and manufacturing of intelligent locks and smart doors, providing end-to-end OEM and ODM services that cover product research and development, engineering, manufacturing and project support.
The company operates a modern 20,000-square-meter manufacturing facility with more than 500 employees, including over 40 professional engineers. Its production capabilities include four imported PCB SMT production lines, supporting stable and efficient manufacturing for smart security products.
TENON has also established a strong intellectual property portfolio, with nearly 200 patents. Its products have obtained certifications from internationally recognized organizations including SGS and Intertek, reflecting the company's focus on product quality, reliability and international market requirements.
Its smart lock portfolio includes fingerprint door locks, facial recognition locks, password locks and intelligent locks designed for glass doors. These products are developed for applications ranging from homes and apartments to hotels, universities and real estate projects.
A key area of TENON's development is intelligent smart door technology. Its AI-powered fully automatic armored smart door integrates multiple biometric and access technologies, including 3D facial recognition, palm vein recognition, fingerprint identification, passwords, IC cards, mechanical keys and APP-based remote control.
The system is designed to address the challenges of multi-user identity management in homes, hotels and apartments. Its facial recognition system supports 3D live detection and is designed to help prevent spoofing through photos or videos, with a response time of approximately 0.1–0.2 seconds.
Beyond access control, the smart door incorporates a 24-hour electronic peephole, remote visual intercom, a 4-inch or 5.5-inch high-definition indoor screen and dual AI cameras with a 140-degree wide-angle field of view.
The armored door structure features a 90 mm multi-layer construction, while a C-grade lock cylinder and nano-coating technology provide additional protection and corrosion resistance.
Designed for demanding environments, the smart door supports IPX6 water resistance and is compatible with a range of installation configurations, including hinged doors, sliding doors, thermal-break aluminum doors and glass doors. It is designed for door thicknesses of 45–60 mm and door depths of at least 12 cm.
For long-term reliability, the lock body is rated for up to 200,000 operating cycles, while the overall product design targets a service life of up to 15 years. Lithium battery power, Type-C emergency charging, a low-noise gearbox motor and TENON's T-smart dual-core chip further support everyday performance.
With extensive experience in global building materials and hardware exhibitions, TENON continues to develop partnerships with developers, builders, distributors and brands seeking flexible smart security manufacturing solutions.
By combining R&D expertise, production infrastructure and OEM/ODM capabilities, TENON aims to provide global partners with a complete pathway from product concept to finished smart security solution.
