Carefree living and learning
A safe space for students
The non-profit organization Wiener Akademikerhilfe manages 40 student dormitories in Austria. The Pfeilheim is Wiener Akademikerhilfe’s flagship dormitory and is located in the heart of the Vienna, close to many university campuses. This dorm is a dream space for many students. The listed building has a total of 450 brand new room units. The secure doors are equipped with the penta mechanical reversible key system, which is among the most secure on the market and is extremely user-friendly and convenient. In addition, dormakaba’s door locking system technology ensures that everyone in the building can enter and leave safely.
Challenges
How do you combine a secure door locking system with convenient access and a sense of well-being?
Managing secure, private single rooms and common spaces for all students – because creating community is also a priority in this dormitory
Secure doors which automatically lock when closing
A future-proof system that can be expanded as new buildings are added
Support the energy efficiency of the building by reducing drafts
Meeting the listed building protection requirements
Enhanced comfort and barrier-free access
Details
Secure access solutions that promote community and privacy
Door locking systems for common rooms and single rooms
The room doors are equipped with the penta mechanical reversible key system. penta locking cylinders are some of the most secure on the market and are very user-friendly. Due to the double-sided lockable cylinder’s (BSZ) special function, doors can be unlocked even if a door is accidentally locked, such as when a key is still inserted on the opposite side.
Thinking about tomorrow today
The penta mechanical locking system is particularly powerful and suitable for large and complex door locking systems. It’s the ideal system for maintaining Akademikerhilfe’s flexibility and future expansion.
Perfect technology for barrier-free access
dormakaba secure door technology ensures that everyone in the building can enter and leave safely. Barrier-free access and easier door opening and closing adds value for everyone. Door closers with smooth movement make passing through fire doors incredibly easy. This is also supported by the ED 250 automatic swing door operators. They gently and precisely accelerate opening and closing doors even in high winds or with pressurized ventilation systems, thus increasing energy efficiency.
With the Easy Open technology and other innovative mechanics, dormakaba door closers have been meeting the highest standards for 30 years.
