PDX Born + Bred

Designed and Manufactured in Portland, Oregon

Krownlab architectural hardware is obsessively designed and engineered in Portland, Oregon. Our bottom line is flawlessly performing products trusted by everyone from homeowners to hotels with 100’s of units. The Pacific Northwest, where we live, work, and play, is crucial to us achieving our aim, here’s how:

Peerless Partners

By keeping our process as close to our Pacific Northwest headquarters as possible, we shorten the feedback loop and foster free-flowing collaborations with our local manufacturing partners. Thanks to an impressive roster of local, innovative companies like Janwell and ADX, we can see the process go from idea to prototype quickly, and all in the same area code.

The People Make It Possible

Sure we left-coasters like our bikes and we've been known to wear a flannel or two, but there is something more to the people that grew up or were drawn to this rainy, foggy corner of the country. It's a problem-solving attitude, an openness to collaboration, an appreciation for life. These people are everything to our process of creating the hardware that leads an industry. It's their after-hours obsessing, their commitment to test further than good enough, their spirit of pioneering products that stake out the frontier of where our industry is heading.

Inspiration Right Out Our Front Door

There’s just something in the water in Portland that makes it optimal for game-changing, industry-leading companies. Maybe it's the small batch coffee in the morning or the craft brewed beers in the afternoon, but Krownlab takes full advantage. We don’t set our sights on what sells, but on what’s possible. The impressive constellation of envelope-pushing companies in Portland across diverse industries, including Nike, Wieden and Kennedy, and Puppet Labs fuel us to always think big and question often.
