Controlled, fuss-free entry

The entrances to stadiums present considerable challenges in terms of functionality, safety and convenience. We offer high-performance solutions that can allow large numbers of visitors to enter the venue in a smooth, controlled and barrier-free flow. Turnstiles and sensor barriers from dormakaba enable efficient and precise visitor channeling through the entrance area of the stadium and can be equipped with a wide range of authentication methods, including mobile access solutions, RFID readers and barcode scanners.

Barrier-free interiors

As a provider of barrier-free solutions, we endeavor to design products that make a wide variety of areas of life easily accessible, even for people with restricted mobility. The ability to move freely through buildings and enter and leave them unhindered, especially in the event of evacuation, is an important requirement and often stipulated by legal regulations. Our solutions and services for barrier-free doors make buildings accessible to everyone. Automatic door systems enable barrier-free access to different areas of a stadium, including entrances, restrooms, catering areas and lounges.

Fire and smoke protection

Effective fire protection saves lives. In stadiums, fire protection doors and suitable components are equally crucial, and have to manage the balancing act between building regulation requirements and the need for practicality. Reliable products for fire and smoke protection doors and preventive fire protection are essential, especially in stairwells, hallways, access areas to different floors and parking garages at stadiums. Our products are designed to ensure people’s safety. In the event of a fire, people should close fire doors securely to limit the spread of smoke and withstand high loads and temperatures.

For more safety in large crowds

Safe escape routes for large crowds

Stadiums are places where vast numbers of people gather to witness history in the making. The many challenges of hosting major events include directing flows of people and avoiding panic. To ensure that emotions are kept in check, we ensure both safe entry to football stadiums and quick exit in the event of an emergency. 

With dormakaba solutions, you can offer visitors a high level of security even if they have to leave the arena quickly thanks to panic bars and escape route security systems. These allow large streams of visitors to get outside safely.

Access control

The targeted management of people is one of the biggest challenges for stadium systems. Stadiums have many different entrances and exits. There are different access authorizations, too – only players and employees should be allowed into the locker room areas, for instance. VIP guests like separate access to their boxes. High-profile visitors enjoy the highest level of attention and come with special protection. Employees have access to concealed technology, while the thousands of fans want to find their way in and out of the stadium quickly and easily.

Our access control systems allow you to fulfill all of these different requirements. They also document who has attempted to gain access and can be integrated into a security system or alarm system.

VIP boxes

Special events attract special guests. That’s why modern stadiums have a sophisticated VIP area. From convenient access to boxes using automatic door systems to the management of individual, time-controlled access authorizations for different guests, dormakaba’s custom solutions help you take the VIP experience to the next level at your venue.

dormakaba Servicing

dormakaba Service

Door components need to function reliably to ensure security and smooth operations, especially in football stadiums. Regular maintenance can help prevent breakdowns, improve safety, maintain the value of the stadium and reduce energy consumption. Besides expert advice and installation of new systems, dormakaba servicing also provides proper prescribed maintenance for door systems.

Safety

Football stadiums often have a large number of visitors, so access solutions need to function safely and reliably in order to steer crowds with precision and minimize potential safety risks. Regular maintenance ensures that these systems function properly and meet safety standards.

Avoiding interruptions

Every game or event at a football stadium requires things to run smoothly. Breakdowns or disruptions to the access solutions can interrupt operations, which can not only lead to financial losses, but can also affect the image of the stadium. Regular maintenance allows potential problems to be identified and resolved early and breakdowns avoided.

System longevity

Football stadiums are highly frequented facilities where the access solutions are subject to heavy use. Regular maintenance helps to minimize breakdowns and extend the service life of the systems. It also reduces the cost of deploying technicians over the long term.

Compliance with legal regulations

Football stadiums must adhere to certain regulations and standards in terms of safety and accessibility. Regular maintenance of access solutions by the dormakaba servicing team can ensure that these standards are met and that the stadium is safe and accessible for all.
