Product Overview

Robustness and Elegance for Every Space

This access gate with adjustable swing doors is a solution conceived in its smallest details to bring innovation, quality and design to the access control market. dGate provides comfort, sophistication and security for users.

The UW variant adds high doors — up to 1801mm of 10mm tempered glass — for environments that need a full visual and physical barrier. A motorized brushless mechanism opens the doors only after a user is identified and authorized, while ten pairs of infrared sensors watch the passage for tailgating, wrong-direction entry, and obstructions.

Technology

Engineered for Performance

Advanced sensors and processing for seamless access.

Ten-Pair IR Detection

Ten pairs of infrared sensors line the passage corridor at mid and leg height, including two pairs that form a dedicated safety zone. The array detects passage direction, tailgating attempts, stopped users, and obstructions in the door path.

Five Access Modes

Entry and exit are configured independently: controlled both ways, controlled one way with the other free or locked, locked both ways, or free both ways. Door speed, passage timeout, and access-with-doors-open are all configurable.

RGB Pictogram Guidance

Four high-brightness RGB pictograms guide users through the gate — two front orientation pictograms and two upper operation pictograms, one of each per direction. Green indicates an authorized passage, red a denied one. The upper pictogram is expandable to two RGB LED modules.

Anti-Fraud & Anti-Crush

An audible antifraud system flags tailgating, passage against the permitted direction, and passage without validation. Crossed IR sensors cover the swing area at a configurable range, and the doors reopen the moment an obstacle is detected.

Multi-Credential Support

Dedicated internal space houses the reader of your choice — RFID or MIFARE proximity, 2D barcode, or fingerprint biometrics in 1:N or 1:1 mode. Readers can also mount at the module ends. The optional Digicon MCA control board adds TCP/IP database lookup with offline local storage.

Signature Industrial Design

Industrial design by Alexander Neumeister — the German designer behind projects for Siemens, Hitachi, and Thyssenkrupp — delivering both aesthetic excellence and functional precision.

Experience

Controlled Access, Comfortable Passage

Doors open the moment a user is authorized, then close behind them.

  • Motorized swing doors open on authorization and close behind each user
  • Ten pairs of IR sensors detect tailgating, reverse entry, and stopped users
  • Quick and precise closing with new sensing algorithms
  • Compatible with bi-directional and multi-lane configurations
  • 920mm and 1200mm widths accommodate wheelchairs, stretchers, and carts
  • Anti-crush protection reopens the doors whenever an obstacle is detected
  • Manual release on power failure; automatic opening on emergency alarm
