Compx Security Products Inc., doing business as Compx Timberline, supplies locks, security hardware, and related components to the Federal Bureau of Prisons as a prime contractor on indefinite delivery contracts and delivery orders, competing on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations.

Compx Timberline's product portfolio concentrates on hardware manufacturing and office furniture components. The vendor supplies locks and lock hardware components for UNICOR manufacturing operations across Bureau of Prisons facilities, as well as fastening devices, measuring tools, and miscellaneous hardware supporting prison operations and maintenance.
