Today, the technology not only secures the Technical Town Hall, but also numerous other properties in the city centre, including listed buildings such as the historic Town Hall. The integration of the successor generation Winkhaus blueSmart demonstrates the adaptability of the system. Both technologies run in parallel and are administrated centrally via the blueControl software.
The management of locking systems has become more efficient and uncomplicated thanks to modern Winkhaus systems. In the past, this was associated with complex folders and manual key exchange. Today, one mouse click is all it takes to flexibly accommodate access rights. Maintenance costs have also been reduced with the introduction of Winkhaus electronic locking systems. The intelligent door handle fittings and cylinders are robust and rarely require battery changes. In such a case the system notifies you in good time. For emergencies, technicians have access to a battery-operated blueSmart Active key, which serves as an emergency opening key and mobile programming device. The discreet electronic components also blend seamlessly into the historical fabric of the building without requiring complex cabling or structural modifications.
The decision of the City of Offenbach to switch to electronic locking systems from Winkhaus has proven to be forward-looking. The successful implementation in numerous, even historically important urban buildings shows that flexibility and security do not have to be contradictory. The city is now well equipped for future requirements.
