Electronic locks for your garage-to-house door

August 13, 2024

While there are numerous smart locks for home access, we find that some of them stand out. The dormadaba digital cylinder is one of those unique solution with award-winning design and excellent engineering that the Swiss company is known for.

Imagine that you want to secure access from your garage to the house. The dormakaba digital cylinder allows you to control access from the attached garage into your house with unparalleled convenience. Hold up your smartphone to the external knob – the illuminated ring will flash green and you can enter. Alternatively, you can use a key fob on your keychain. For guests, you can transfer access rights to smartphones and your visitors can use them as access media at the door.

The digital cylinder is part of dormakaba evolo standalone portfolio. That means no cabling is required within the door because it is operated with a standard battery. The modular design of the digital cylinder with removable knobs enables quick and easy installation.

Diverse range of uses

Generally, you can use the digital cylinder for any door in the inside or weather-protected outdoor area. The electronics operate reliably, even in extremely low temperatures.

Extensive range

In addition to the standard version, the product portfolio includes dual, half and anti-panic cylinders. These can be combined with a variety of options.

With the selectable wireless function, the digital cylinder can establish a radio connection to the access system. This offers you advantages in terms of programming, maintenance and security.

Easy installation

Installation is possible on both external and internal doors. It couldn’t be easier: within minutes the digital cylinder is installed in the existing door lock, the inner knob is put on without any tool.

Modular design

Both the internal and external knob can be dismantled for easy installation. The cylinder length is flexible and works with all Dorsis invisible doors from Angelbau.

Programming

The digital cylinder is easy to program and suitable both for individual doors and as an element of a large access system. Depending on the selected features and administration software, different programming options are available: For example, access rights may be transmitted either remotely from your PC, with the programming device, or via mobile app directly to the digital cylinder.
