Smart Locking Case Study: Hamilton House

We recently had the pleasure of working with Claire and her team at Hamilton House in Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin to design and install a new Smart Access Control System for their stunning heritage building.

Hamilton House is a 5-star Serviced Office building with a large volume of users who access the building on a daily basis. Originally fitted with Simons Voss Smart Cylinders almost 15 years previously, the objective of the project was to upgrade the existing system so that all locks can be managed from a central PC over a wireless network, to bring the doors inline with the Emergency Escape regulations and to upgrade the physical security of each office door.

Aesthetics was a key element of this project as it was of utmost importance not to impact on the character of this heritage building. For this reason we chose the Smart Handle AX Solution from Simons Voss Technologies. Its compact design seamlessly blends into the environment yet discretely and securely locks each door automatically each time it is closed.

The Smart Handle AX combined with our high security auto locking lock is also fully compliant to EN179 for emergency escape requirements.

Our Smart Handle AX Solution is completely wireless meaning it can be installed throughout this heritage building without the need for any wiring. The handles communicate to a central PC via a secured internal wireless network – providing the convenience of central control.

Tested to an operational life in excess of 1 million operations, the Smart Handle AX boasts an industry leading battery life of 250,000 activations on a single set of batteries and are ideal for high usage commercial applications.

Our Smart Access Control Solution makes it easy to ensure that each user has the access to all areas that they require from a single fob whilst also making sure the building remains secure at all times. Lost or Stolen fobs can be deleted and replacement ones issued ensuring there is not unauthorised access.

It was an absolute pleasure in dealing with Killian

Choosing Simon Voss locking solution for us was the obvious choice when we carried out a major refurbishment to our Georgian, serviced office premises in 2008. After 14 years, it was finally time to upgrade the system and it was then that Integrated Security stepped in! It was an absolute pleasure in dealing with Killian. He ensured we would get the right type of lock for the various different door types throughout our building and that the look and usability of each would be right. From site survey to the design stage and then to installation, Killian and Michael were professional, helpful and meticulous in every aspect of this project. I would have no hesitation in using them again in the future and could not recommend them highly enough.
