Last updated: July 2026 dataKey-operated, combination, and electrically operated locks that are neither motor vehicle nor furniture locks fall here — a broad residual category covering door locksets, luggage locks, and a wide range of specialty locking hardware. The US schedule carves out luggage locks (8301403000), door locks and locksets (8301406030), and a residual NESOI line (8301406060). Mexico leads supply, followed by Taiwan and China, with Canada also a notable source; the North American concentration in door locksets reflects integrated residential and commercial construction supply chains. Section 301 tariffs apply to Chinese-origin goods.
