Our ATRIUM and standalone systems offer encrypted credentials, remote management, and integration with CCTV. Ideal for businesses requiring precise user permissions and real-time monitoring.
Biometric Solutions
Our ievo biometric systems use fingerprint and facial recognition for high-security access. These solutions eliminate physical credentials, offering rapid authentication with 10,000+ fingerprint storage capacity. Suitable for corporate offices, healthcare facilities, and sensitive data centres requiring advanced identity verification.
Door Automation
DIGIWAY door automation systems enable hands-free entry with safety-compliant operators for single/double doors. Features include smartphone programming, EN16005 compliance, and weather-resistant kits. Widely used in hospitals, schools, and public buildings for accessibility and traffic flow.

CDVI's magnetic locks and architectural handles provide fire-rated security with 300-500kg holding force. Surface and flush-mounted options integrate with access control systems. Backed by a 10-year warranty, these locks suit commercial premises requiring fail-safe or fail-secure configurations.
