Digital SmartHandle AX

Is it possible to make something even better?

Yes, it is! Our new generation of SmartHandles is unfailingly based on our users' needs and sets new standards in the process. SimonsVoss introduces a new level of intelligence, security and convenience to doors with SmartHandle AX thanks to a modular structure, a wealth of variants, and innovative functions such as BLE and Phone2Door. Adaptive design and the interplay between metal elements not only offer a visual delight but also maximum scope for style and decoration. The new product SmartHandle AX is a smart solution for interior doors which can be fastened to existing escutcheon hole patterns (ISO 18251) without needing to drill holes.

Behind its slim, flat exterior lies highly innovative technology. In developing the new Smart Handle 3062 door fitting, we focussed in particular on the requirements for use in the Education, Healthcare and Residential sectors. In the Digital Locking and Access Control System 3060, Smart Handle 3062 communicates with identification media and controls using a contactless system and controls where and when up to 64,000 users are granted access. It can also be operated online with direct networking or integrated into a G2-based virtual SimonsVoss network. Battery replacement intervals of up to 10 years are also setting new standards.
 

Why AX now

AX stands for Advanced Xchange. Communication and interconnectivity are key in a global, networked world. We asked ourselves how a digital locking system with access control can meet such expectations and become a control quantity in buildings. Only those who listen and create a connection between security, flexibility and convenience will be fit for the future. That's why we have defined a new standard: a contemporary security architecture which focuses on the requirements of a digital society.
 

The AX platform

With its investment protection, forward compatibility, a wealth of variants and a maximum standard in security, the AX platform will be indispensable on a visual or technological level in the future. This is because we are not happy until optimum standards are met. We define the AX platform based on a unique security architecture – Intrinsic Security Architecture (ISA), which features the Secure Element as its centrepiece. This element meets maximum security standards regarding data encryption. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) makes the solution platform complete, providing Phone2Door* in a free app, for example. This not only allows the smartphone to be used as an identification medium but also to undertake programming tasks. It also gives users a reassuring sense of security and flexibility in a keyless world, irrespective of their sector or building size.
