SimonsVoss, a world without keys: 'A strong player in healthcare, education and student housing'

Martin Geenen and Hans Trappenburg, commercial managers in the Netherlands and Belgium say, "SimonsVoss is a German company that stepped into the world of battery-powered digital locking technology in 1998. They are now European market leaders with a large dealer network."

The quality and beautiful design of the products are the main features, according to Martin. "We can service any building where access control is required and where people are allowed to enter in a controlled manner. We work with a wide range of products, which also connect effortlessly to existing software systems. A building manager in a hospital thus not only has a grip on climate and lighting, but also on access doors." 

Hans: "In addition to healthcare, we focus on education: from daycare to university. Even when it comes to student housing, we are the specialist. You don't want to know how big the key loss is here and how much money is lost in replacing locks and cylinders. Also in that world, they are looking more and more at intelligent solutions."

The biggest strength behind the system, according to Martin, is flexibility and security. "No uninvited guests accessing themselves through exterior or interior doors, in the event of a general power failure, our products continue to work fine, and no cutting and breaking is required when installing. It all depends heavily on the industry. That's precisely why we like to engage in discussions about this."
