The future needs access

De Nassau School in Breda, Netherlands

De Nassau School in the Netherlands relies on modern and future-proof locking technology: The blueEvo electronic locking system is an intelligent solution that optimises both the security and the efficiency of access control. The system integrates seamlessly into existing IT infrastructures and supports the flexible administration of access rights.

With a total area of 13,884 m² and with 275 doors, upgrading the locking system was a particular challenge. The previously used mechanical locking system was outdated and extremely costly to maintain. blueEvo was chosen to create a future-proof solution. The system not only offers the highest security standards, but also easy and centralised administration of access rights.

The entire installation was carried out within a few days during the summer holidays. During this period, 263 electronic locking cylinders, 275 electronic keys, 9 offline readers and 6 Virtual Network Hubs were installed. A particular focus was on the parallel operation of the old system so that school activities would not be interrupted. Thanks to detailed planning, the transition from the old to the new system went smoothly.

The installed locking cylinders, some of which have SKG*** approval, are particularly resilient to mechanical impact and manipulation. The high quality of the components not only ensures a high degree of security, but also significantly reduces maintenance. For example, batteries in electronic cylinders have standby times of 6 to10 years.

Shortly after commissioning, employee acceptance of the system proved to be extremely high. There is a perception that the centralised administration of access rights offers significant benefits, making everyday school life considerably less complicated. The system offers the perfect balance between security, flexibility and efficiency.

With the implementation of blueEvo, De Nassau School is optimally prepared for the future. The system blends seamlessly into the existing architecture and offers a modern, user-friendly solution for efficient access control.
