UNSPSC 46171502: Cable locks

UNSPSC 46171502 Cable locks, a Commodity code, covers the supply of physical locking devices and key management systems that state and local governments procure for facility access control, equipment security, and fleet management. Recent solicitations show government buyers acquiring standalone padlocks and keyed hardware (Master, Schlage, Best, Yale, and equivalent brands), specialized anti-ligature locks for mental-health facilities, electronic and combination locks with key-override capability, key blanks and locksmith supplies, and comprehensive key management systems for vehicle and equipment fleets. Work scopes range from simple padlock supply to turnkey installation and maintenance of master-key systems integrating with existing proprietary infrastructure.

Issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Department of Corrections, Oregon Military Department), county governments (Pinellas County, Harris County, Volusia County, Marion County), city procurement offices (Dallas, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Salem, Tampa), school districts (Pinellas County Schools, Sarasota County Schools), public universities (George Mason University, University of Wisconsin system, Florida Atlantic University), and special-purpose districts (Sourcewell cooperative purchasing on behalf of multiple Washington and Minnesota jurisdictions). State health and human services agencies appear frequently, as do county solid-waste and juvenile-detention facilities. Geographic activity spans Texas (multiple HHSC and Harris County solicitations), Florida (Volusia County, Marion County Fire Rescue, Pinellas County, Sarasota County Schools, Tampa, FAU), California, Illinois, Oregon, and the District of Columbia, with representative recent opportunities including the District of Columbia Department of Transportation seeking a fleet capital asset management key system (IFB DCKA2026B0131, due July 14, 2026), Texas Health and Human Services requesting locks and locksmith supplies for state hospitals (IFB HHS0017203, due July 13, 2026), Harris County soliciting door-lock replacement and assessment services at juvenile detention facilities (ITB 26-0121, due June 15, 2026), and the City of Phoenix issuing an IFB for five-year commercial locksmith products and services (IFB26FMD0304, due July 3, 2026). Smaller jurisdictions also procure regularly: Pinellas County Solid Waste Department sought locksmith services to standardize door locks across fifteen facilities (ITQ 260607, due June 25, 2026), and the City of Philadelphia issued quotes for Yale locks and security locks for laptops (B2627139 and B2627233, due June 29 and June 2, 2026 respectively). Contract values range from micro-purchases under $40,000 to estimated annual spend of $1,000,000 at school districts and multi-year, multi-facility agreements in the six-figure range; sole-source procurements for proprietary systems (such as Oregon's $97,873.58 DormaKaba RFID lock replacement) also occur when existing infrastructure dictates exclusive supply. Most jurisdictions structure contracts as one-year initial terms with two or more renewal options, with firm fixed-price or cost-plus-markup models; insurance, E-Verify, and standard debarment certifications are routine requirements.
