Founded in 1952 in Germany, Hoppe operates worldwide and is the global leader in the development, manufacturing, and marketing of door and window handles. Still a family business now in its third generation, Hoppe has over 2,300 employees today. Their brand, "HOPPE – Quality in your hands," demonstrates their expertise and comprehensive product range tailored to customer needs. Hoppe also offers a complementary line under the ARRONE brand, which includes locks, cylinders, door closers, and more.

Hoppe entered the American market in the late 1980s, beginning to establish an international presence to meet the growing demand in North America for hardware products combining European style with high performance. Since 1989, Hoppe's Wisconsin plant has played a central role in the company’s U.S. operations, underscoring its long-term commitment to the North American market. This facility is essential for product production, distribution, and customization for American clients, meeting local requirements in terms of quality, design, and service speed. In addition to production, the plant serves as a distribution center for the United States, ensuring rapid and efficient delivery of Hoppe products across the continent, thereby reducing transport costs and time for North American customers.
