Where it all began
Stabila has its origins in Germany, where Anton Ullrich began producing folding rulers in 1865. Together with his brother Franz Ullrich, he laid the foundation for precise and reliable measuring tools with a patent on the spring hinge. What started as a simple solution for everyday use grew into a clear focus on measuring and alignment. The trademark registration in 1929 and the company’s growth after the Second World War led to international recognition. Thanks to smart innovations, such as the patented spring hinge, permanently cast-in vials (ULTRA-PROTECT), and extra-strong aluminium profiles to guarantee lasting accuracy and durability, combined with a constant focus on quality, Stabila built a strong reputation for precision and reliability. That same conviction remains at the heart of the brand today: practical measuring tools professionals can rely on, day after day.
Measuring instruments for every job
In the workshop, everything revolves around measurements you can trust. Spirit levels are used to align workpieces, constructions and machinery accurately and squarely, while compact models are ideal for quick checks or tight spaces. For length measurements, tape measures are indispensable: fast, easy to read and suitable for both the workbench and on-site installation. Folding rulers remain popular for daily use because they measure straight and feel comfortable in hand.
What makes all these measuring tools suitable for workshop use is the combination of reliability, robust construction and simplicity. They can withstand heavy use and remain clearly readable. That makes them tools you can depend on for every job, large or small.
