Company

for you. forever.

Always there when you need us

We are often not visible, but always there for you. You hardly ever see our drives, but their effect is omnipresent. Just imagine: It gets light in the morning when the roller shutter opens and gently lets the first rays of sunshine into your home. You breathe easy as your awning provides soothing shade. In the evening, the shutters close and you feel safe and secure. Our products are more than just technology - they are silent companions in your everyday life, ensuring that you feel completely comfortable.

Durability and sustainability

for you. forever. These three words are our promise to you: you can sit back and relax - and take care of your real issues. With us, everything revolves around making sure everything runs smoothly for you. Not just today and tomorrow, but permanently! We build our drives and control systems for what feels like an eternity. They are durable, future-oriented and sustainable. A product from us not only provides decades of service, but also saves many times more CO2 compared to what was needed to manufacture it.

Quality and reliability

You don't want to deal with unreliable products that have to be replaced shortly after the warranty expires? Neither do we. That's why we cultivate our network of decent craftsmen and work together with the market-leading roller shutter and sun protection manufacturers. This allows our customers to enjoy their everyday lives and take care of their real issues.

A climate for well-being

Our aim is to improve our customers' quality of life while preserving our planet for future generations. By using our energy-efficient drives and controls, you not only experience an optimized indoor climate, but also actively contribute to environmental protection. Imagine simply regulating the temperature in your home and saving energy in the process - one small step for you, one giant leap for our planet.

Becker yesterday. Becker today.

Founded in 1921

Emil and Adolf Becker

Way back in 1921, the two founders of the company, Emil and Adolf Becker, were working on ideas that were intended to relieve their customers of work and effort. A particular milestone in our company history is the year 1965. That was when Becker started to develop and manufacture door drives and the associated control units specifically for industrial applications.

In 1971, we extended our product range by adding tubular drives for roller shutters and sun protection systems. We also started developing and producing electrical and electronic control equipment.

Drives have been what drive us for a very long time – and our product range is continually developing. In 2000, the first drives with integrated radio receiver were added to the range, for example. Another important milestone was reached in 2013 with the B-Tronic bidirectional radio control system and our CentralControl home automation system.

The market for smart homes is growing - today, there are a lot of solutions that have been established for users and that Becker products are compatible with. Our drives can be controlled using the FRITZ!Box or the homee or mediola systems, for example. This allows us to offer our customers even better quality of life, increased security and convenience: and this is achieved through intelligent automation technology that makes life easier.

The grandson of Emil Becker, Hans Joachim Wiegelmann, is still the managing partner and owner of the company today - together with his sons Maik, Andersen and Julian. Maik Wiegelmann (see picture) is Managing Director.
We have grown into an internationally sought-after provider, yet we have kept the culture of a family company where responsibility and quality matter. This is one of the reasons that we remain faithful to our site in Sinn, Hesse, where the company was founded, while we continue to manufacture our products in Germany. And our development strength is something that attracts a lot of attention: we have been awarded the the “Innovation through Research” seal in the area of research and development by the Stifterverband initiative. This goes to show: the Becker way is ready for the future too.
