Four dormakaba Solutions Receive Awards
At this year’s ICONIC AWARDS 2024: Innovative Architecture, no fewer than four dormakaba solutions have been awarded as winners in three categories: the new generation of terminals for time recording and the new, digital high-security safe lock series, Axessor APEXX IP, in the “Product- Building Technologies” category, the automatic door system MotionIQ in the “Energy Solutions” category and skyra, which is the cloud-based access solution in the “Product Special” category.
“We are delighted and proud to have received four awards in this neutral, international architecture and design competition. These prizes further strengthen our reputation as a design-oriented company and are a sign of recognition for creative product development and innovation. They motivate our employees to continue developing products of the highest quality,” emphasises Torsten Stolte, Managing Director of dormakaba Deutschland GmbH.
The new dormakaba terminals 96 00 and 98 00 of the new terminal generation for time recording support individual working time models, meet the specific needs of employers and are designed to adapt to different requirements and display designs. The terminals are flexible, future-proof, easy to integrate and sustainable.
The intelligent Motion IQ door system for automatic doors significantly improves a building’s energy balance while reducing operating costs, facilitating barrier-free access to the building and optimising the safe use of automatic doors. The new system only opens the door when necessary and closes it immediately after passage, as MotionIQ calculates the ideal opening time and the time the door remains open.
The smart on-demand solution skyra ensures safe and easy access to distributed critical infrastructure sites. The skyra portfolio includes a variety of locking cylinder designs for every locking situation and a rechargeable key that communicates access rights and locking information with the cloud service via the mobile app.
The new digital safe lock series “Axessor APEXX IP” sets new, significant benchmarks and standards in the field of safe locks and provides a networkable, contemporary multi-lock application. In connection with the administration and networking platform, the safe locks can be securely managed and programmed remotely. It is ideal for all companies that require the efficiency and convenience of a networked and unified safe lock solution that meets the highest security standards.
At the awards ceremony in Munich on 8 October 2024, the special prize in the “Architects of the Year” category, sponsored by dormakaba, went to Tatiana Bilbao Estudio from Mexico.
“Tatiana Bilbao’s Mexican architecture studio sees architecture as a tool for improving social situations. I am impressed how local conditions are masterfully translated into striking architectural gestures,” explained Bernhard Heitz, Strategic Product Design dormakaba, at the awards ceremony.
