Electronic access control - flexible and safe

… grant all users access during business hours, but only allow access to authorised persons outside these hours. Whereas all employees need access in manufacturing companies, only certain staff should access hazardous or highly confidential areas, for example. Components of an access control system Access control systems consist of at least three components. The identification medium, for example an identity document or biometric characteristic. The (card) reader, which records the identification information or data and forwards this to a Door Controller or access control unit (ACU) for evaluation. The access control unit checks the access authorisation and grants or denies release of the door, even without a permanent connection to the access control applications. If a check is positive, an electric door drive, a motor lock or if applicable an electric strike grants access. Additional door and lock contacts are connected to the Door Controller to monitor the status of doors (closed, locked, open). This identifies any manipulation and break in attempts and triggers alarms. Modern access control systems can manage the access rights described above both online and offline. Offline systems consist of digital cylinders and sliding fitting systems, and, in contrast to an online system, the authorisations are saved on the ID card. Benefits of electronic access control systems Protection of valuables and data via controlled access: staff and visitors have individually defined access to specific areas at specific times changes can be made to authorisations at any time numerous access profiles can be defined permanent overview of all personal access authorisations no changes need to be made to the whole system if the identification medium is lost; immediate suspension of the lost transponder or identification card is permitted generation of an alarm in the event of manipulation or an attempt at unauthorised access no more "forgotten" doors access controls and time recording can also be linked GEZE: optimal solutions for individual security concepts Access control system with RFID wide-range reader © Dirk Wilhelmy / GEZE GmbH GEZE provides individual access control solutions- tailored to the respective sector and client-specific needs. Each solution is compiled for the particular client from a range of GEZE products. As compact, web-based system solutions which include all the door-related components, GEZE access control systems meet the demands of modern identification systems. Visitors and staff are granted access to specific areas, at set times – and access rights can be changed very quickly for each individual door. The minimal dimensions of the access control units and the integration of the ID readers into the building installations leave plenty of room for door design freedom. GEZE access control systems can be used for single doors as well as for networked door systems. Go to the GEZE safety systems GEZE RFID readers The GCER 100 RFID reader is an access control system for stand-alone operation. The system consists of a control unit and a reader. Identification cards, key rings or car keys can be used as identification media. Since it is restricted to a maximum of 100 storable means of ID, the GCER 100 RFID reader is the ideal solution for smaller buildings where a limited number of people require authorised access. The broad-based GCLR solution is used as an access or entrance control, or as a personal protection system. It consists of the wide-range GCLR reader which is positioned near to the door and a transponder carried by the user. The system allows access to specific areas and passageways to be monitored and controlled. GEZE combines access control and safe rescue routes Determining and controlling who is authorised to enter a building is part of a building's safety design. But safety should not just be about access, it also needs to consider safe escape from a building in an emergency. In an emergency, everyone needs to be able to get out - but not everyone should be able to enter an open emergency exit. Security must not be at the cost of safety. GEZE motor locks with a panic or full-panic function unlock doors by motor in response to a signal from the access control system, for instance. They can also be unlocked mechanically at any time in the event of any emergency. After use, the self-locking function locks the door again in compliance with insurance requirements. Go to the GEZE IQ locks Go to the GEZE door control units Access control networked in Smart Buildings Smart networking: multifunctional safety door systems © Jürgen Pollak / GEZE GmbH Access control can also be networked in building management systems, such as the newly built company headquarters of Vector Informatik in Stuttgart. To enable the constant monitoring and operation of more than 180 multifunctional safety door systems, all the automatic door systems in the new IT Campus of Vector Informatik are networked via an interface module in the BACnet building management system. GEZE provides tailor-made digital networking solutions. As part of this, specific distribution boxes serve as the central intersection points where all the cables and the BACnet interface module come together. The uniform structure of the distribution boxes provides the building manager with an overview of the interfaces with other devices at every door, and thereby of all of the networked building technology.

Building renovation - a job for the experts

… grants are available for complete refurbishments or for individual measures such as insulation, replacement of windows, air conditioners and building automation . KfW funding for building renovation Via the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW), the German Federal Government supports building renovations for private individuals, companies, and local authorities in the form of loans or investment grants. The basic prerequisite for funding is that the refurbishment measure leads to the KfW Efficiency House standard. The KfW Efficiency House is a technical standard that KfW uses in its promotional programmes. Different numerical values indicate how high the annual primary energy requirement of the existing property is in relation to a comparable new building. The lower the number, the higher the energy efficiency and the higher the subsidy. For companies and self-employed workers KfW energy efficiency programme - energy-efficient building and renovation (reduce energy costs in commercial buildings) For private individuals Energy-efficient renovation (for renovation to a KfW efficient house or individual energy-related measures) Age-appropriate renovation (measures for reducing barriers and safeguards against burglary) In addition, there are also KfW subsidies for smart home systems as part of age-appropriate renovations, or as an additional measure when carrying out energy-related renovation work. For communities, municipal and social enterprises Energy-efficient building and renovation (for energy-related renovation of existing buildings within communal and social infrastructure, no residential buildings). Barrier-free town (for barrier-reducing measures, via which existing communal and public buildings, traffic facilities, and public spaces can be renovated in an age-appropriate and family-friendly manner.) Energy efficiency advice is also subsidised KfW funding often also requires that an energy efficiency expert is involved in the creation of an energy concept. For example, homeowners and local authorities receive grants from the KfW (construction supervision grant) if an energy consultant is involved in the planning and construction supervision. Go to the various funding opportunities offered by KfW Building renovation for improved safety, fire protection, and accessibility The primary aim of building renovations is of course to implement energy-saving measures – and because of the many forms of subsidies available. However, a change of use may also be a reason for a building renovation. This often leaves the owners with other issues to make decisions about. For example, if the building no longer satisfies modern safety and fire protection standards when being converted into a children’s day nursery. Or if modern usage calls for a different floor plan. For handicapped accessible living and working, Access for all can also be the goal of modernisation. KfW funding allows owners to also redesign their building at the same time as making it more energy efficient. This means that even an old building can be converted into a Smart Building . GEZE provides support during renovation work GEZE can help to develop and implement new concepts for energy-saving ventilation technology and for fire protection and access for all, not only in new construction projects, but also in existing buildings. Various GEZE products can effectively help with energy saving, including indoor climate control via automated windows, door closers, and through intelligent building networks. GEZE door solutions offer barrier-free access, access convenience, escape route safety and energy efficiency . Renovation of existing buildings GEZE solutions aren’t just used in new buildings. With little additional effort, they can also be installed in old or existing buildings - and help save energy and money. Questions about modernising building technology?

Register for the DGNB newsletter More on green buildings Planning Installation Services Planning Installation Services Specific suggestions for building automation and façade renovation Planning is paramount when carrying out building renovations. Ideas and concrete suggestions for building automation and intelligent technical solutions for the façade should be developed as early in the process as possible: Implementation of a building management system (PSIM) for the centralised control and monitoring of heating, window ventilation, door systems and lighting. Installation of presence detectors and motion sensors to automatically adjust the air conditioning in rooms when they are not in use. Integration of weather stations to enable automatic adjustment of heating, night-time cooling and sun shading based on current weather conditions. Use of building data analysis and optimisation algorithms to analyse energy consumption in building operations and identify potential savings. Improving thermal insulation, for example by replacing old windows and doors with energy-efficient models with thermally separated, thermally insulated door and window profiles. Easy installation Many GEZE products are used in renovations as they can often be installed easily. Automatic swing door systems are, for example, characterised by a simple assembly process and they can also be retrofitted. It’s a simple and flexible way to stay ahead of the frequently updated DIN standards and technological regulations that have to be adhered to during renovations. More on our YouTube playlist, including installation videos Retro-fitting and updating made easy Generally speaking, the expected lifetime and useful life of building technology has always been shorter than that of the building itself. Technical systems need to be replaced from time to time. And building technology requirements, building safety in particular, also change as a result of modifications in legislation, for example DIN 18650. The service experts at GEZE have many years of experience and fully understand all of the demands made of building systems. This is backed by ongoing training on changing regulations and directives. We offer you new future-proof product solutions, starting with the automation of your doors, and through to the equipment or modernisation of your building with escape and rescue route solutions.

Intelligently controlled door systems in the Ethianum

… grant access to authorised persons only. GEZE has responded to this challenge with a combined solution consisting of a Slimdrive EMD-F swing door drive system, a central emergency exit control unit and a multi-disciplinary networked access control system. Flexible ease of access in the entrance to the underground car park The exterior door which connects the underground car park to the clinic is a sleek automatic swing door with Slimdrive EMD-F drive in '70 mm look', which enables manual opening with minimal effort thanks to a servo function. If required, the door also opens automatically via the movement detector or a push button. The door functions as an emergency exit door from the clinic underground car park, thanks to the integrated GEZE SecuLogic emergency exit control system with the intelligent TZ 320 door control unit. Even when locked, the door system opens the rescue route for everyone via the emergency button, while also triggering an alarm. A networked access control system keeps the escape and rescue routes free The exterior door to the underground car park becomes a 'system door' in this practical 'three-way solution' by GEZE, by connecting a networked access control system. In the event of danger, monitored door systems within the emergency exit can also be temporarily controlled via the car park door access control unit. Once they are granted clearance via the access control unit, authorised persons with an ID card can temporarily pass through the monitored clinic areas to reach a safe area. Tailor-made service packages for complex demands "Patients need peace and comfort. Efficient processes and top-class functionality are a priority for clinical staff and the clinic operator. Facility management requires particularly reliable systems. Our complex requirements include safety aspects and compliance with standards and guidelines," says Ralf Brenneisen, head of facility management for the Ethianum. "It's good to know that we have the support of GEZE as a professional service partner for tailor-made services, both now and in future," says Ralf Brenneisen. GEZE advised us as specialists during all planning and design stages for the building of the Ethianum, and found the perfect product solution for each situation - not just with regard to function, but aesthetics as well. Ralf Brenneisen, head of facility management at the Ethianum Perfect networking - intelligently controlled access controls Both clinical staff and patients use a personal pass in the Ethianum which grants them individual access and user rights, and records all personal data. This focus on efficiency is also reflected in GEZE's flexible access control system. The web-based GCMU 524 online access control units can be combined into one system solution with almost 100 readers. New or previously non-network clinical door systems can be connected to the networked access control system at any time without any problem.
