Electric scooter locks disc, alarm, stem U-locks and cable locks for e-scooters
E-scooters are light, valuable and easy to carry away, and their frames are not shaped like bikes — so scooter owners need locks designed around stems, decks and brake discs. TandemForge supplies disc-brake alarm locks, U-locks sized for scooter stems, cable and chain locks, folding locks and smart alarm locks to e-scooter brands, shops, e-commerce sellers and fleet operators. For bikes see bike locks; for the full scooter range see electric scooter accessories.
- Disc-brake locks with or without alarm
- Compact U-locks for stems and wheels
- Coiled cable and chain locks; folding locks
- Smart / app alarm locks on selected platforms
Scooter lock types
- Disc-brake locks — a pin through the brake rotor stops the wheel turning; alarm versions sound when moved. Reminder cables help riders not to ride off with the lock fitted.
- Stem U-locks — compact shackles that pass around the stem or wheel and a fixed object.
- Cable and chain locks — flexible enough to loop around the stem, deck or wheel; key or combination.
- Folding locks — compact plates with a holster that mounts to the stem.
- Smart alarm locks — Bluetooth / app unlock and motion alarm; radio and battery documentation per market.
Fitment to scooter models
Shackle size, cable length and disc-pin diameter are chosen against the scooter models you sell — stem diameter, rotor thickness and space around the wheel vary. We confirm fitment on samples. Holsters and brackets mount on the stem without interfering with folding mechanisms.
Ratings and claims
No security rating, break-time or alarm-volume figure is claimed. If your channel needs an independent rating, the chosen model is submitted per order. Locks for fleets can be keyed alike or master-keyed on selected cylinders.

No certifications, ratings or test data claimed. We describe what each product is made of, how it works and how it can be customized. We do not display certification marks or security ratings, publish test data, factory capacity or customer cases on this site. Test reports and certification documentation can be provided or arranged per order for the buyer’s market, as the brand owner requires. Bike helmets and lithium e-bike batteries are regulated products: the applicable standard (for example CPSC 16 CFR 1203 / EN 1078 for helmets; UN 38.3 transport testing and UL 2271 / UL 2849 / EN 50604-1 for batteries) is confirmed per SKU and per order with the supplier and an accredited lab before production. Labeling and claims are the brand owner’s responsibility.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best lock for an electric scooter?
Many riders combine a disc-brake alarm lock with a cable or compact U-lock to a fixed object. We supply both and confirm fitment for your scooter models.
Will a disc lock fit any scooter?
No — the pin must suit the rotor and the space around it. Fitment is confirmed per model on samples.
Do your locks carry Sold Secure, ART or similar ratings?
No security rating is claimed on this site. Independent ratings such as Sold Secure (UK) or ART (Netherlands) belong to a specific tested model; if your channel needs one, the model is submitted to that scheme per order and the rating may only be printed once it is granted. Shackle diameter, steel grade and cylinder type are specified per SKU — we publish no break-time or attack-resistance figures.
What is the MOQ and lead time?
Both are quoted per SKU. MOQ depends mainly on the platform (an existing design vs. a new mold), color, logo method, packaging and the documentation your market needs; lead time depends on customization, documentation and season. Send your quantities and we confirm both on the quotation — see also the packaging & MOQ section of our specs guide.
Are your products certified or tested?
We do not display certification marks, security ratings or test data on this site. Test reports and certification documentation can be provided or arranged per order for your market, as your brand requires: tell us the destination market, sales channel and the standard or document your retailer or marketplace asks for, and the quotation confirms which documentation applies to each SKU and how it is obtained (existing reports for a platform, or testing arranged with a third-party laboratory). See the export compliance section of our specs guide or ask on the inquiry form.
