    Mumbai: In a significant step toward making high-end home security more accessible to Indian households, Locks and Architectural Solutions, a business of the Godrej Enterprises Group (GEG), has launched its latest innovation — the Tribolt Compact Series.

    This affordable and feature-rich main door lock from Locks and Architectural Solutions is engineered for families seeking dependable security without compromising on style or budget.

    Aimed at homeowners transitioning from conventional padlocks or basic hardware, the Tribolt Compact Series offers an optimal blend of affordability, strength, and user convenience.

    Available in three variants — 1CK Latchbolt, 1CK Deadbolt, and 2C Deadbolt — and two premium finishes, Textured Black and Textured Brown, the locks have been carefully designed to meet the functional and aesthetic needs of modern Indian homes.

    “At Locks and Architectural Solutions, we believe that safety should be a standard, not a privilege. The Tribolt Compact is designed with this belief in mind — simple, secure, durable, and affordable,” said Shyam Motwani, Business Head, Locks & Architectural Solutions.

    “It addresses the evolving safety demands of Indian homes, especially for first-time homeowners and families who prioritize both utility and design.”

    Locks and Architectural Solutions: Key Features of Tribolt Compact Series
    • Reversible dimple keys for ease of use in low-light conditions
    • Corrosion-resistant all-brass cylinder for long-lasting durability
    • 21mm bolt throw for enhanced door reinforcement
    • Puller ring feature to avoid accidental lockouts

    With a starting MRP of ₹1,499 and a 5-year warranty, the Tribolt Compact Series is specifically designed to cater to the mass market segment — targeting young families, rural homeowners, and residential builders looking for trusted, stylish, and cost-effective locking solutions.

    Designed with simplicity and functionality at its core, this new range is set to expand Godrej’s legacy in affordable home security, while enabling broader access to high-performance locks in both urban and rural settings.

    Whether you’re moving into a new home or enhancing the security of your current residence, the Tribolt Compact Series offers a trusted and value-driven choice from a brand synonymous with safety for generations.
