Barker Controls Inc

Barker Controls Inc is an industrial equipment supplier in Greenville, SC. The company provides counters, encoders, timers, controllers, and valves to a wide range of customers, from small machine shops to international shipping organizations. Barker Controls has served the industry since 1962, maintaining a long-standing partnership with Hengstler, GmbH as their North American primary distributor for over 60 years. The business also operates as one of five "Rangers" for Fortive, representing the Dynapar, Veeder Root, and Eagle Signal brands. Their product mix includes items from Encoder Products, a US-based manufacturer, and Autonics, a South Korean provider of automation solutions. Barker Controls assists both resellers and end users, offering solutions for new projects, replacements for discontinued items, and repairs for older mechanical counters.

The company was founded by Mr. Barker, who later brought on Mr. Harry Mansfield. Mr. Mansfield and his wife, Doris, ran the business until 2013, when ownership transferred to his son, Richard E Mansfield. The company elected S-Corp status in 2014. Barker Controls specializes in mechanical and electro-mechanical counting devices, noting that while some older counters can be repaired, modern electronics often require replacement. The firm ships to most US states, as well as Canada and Mexico, using freight forwarders for international destinations.
