Modernization of access control in office buildings — ready for operation in 14 days

An office building needed a quick upgrade of its access control before new tenants moved in. The goal was to implement a modern and reliable solution without extensive intervention, new cabling, or long downtime.

About the project

Existing access control was over 20 years old, unsupported and difficult to expand.

 

To prepare the building for new tenants in a short time, a complete modernization was needed — without extensive intervention in the building.

Challenge

  • Utdatert system uten support

  • Treg lisensiering (opptil flere uker)

  • Vanskelig å gjøre endringer uten risiko

  • Ingen mobil tilgang

  • Lav sikkerhet (MIFARE Classic kort)

  • Manuell håndtering av adgang for leietakere

Before / After installation

The project involved the modernization of 12 doors in an office building with existing infrastructure. By reusing the cabling, we were able to deliver a faster and more cost-effective upgrade, while also providing the building with mobile access, easier administration and better control.

  • Mobile, card and code as access methods

  • Easy onboarding via QR code

  • Administration via browser (cloud)

 

All existing cabling (10-pair) was reused.

 

By using the Single Box 6 Pair, the installation was standardized on all doors — without the need for rerouting cables.

Result

The project was delivered and put into operation in 14 days, without the need for new cabling. The customer received a modern access control solution with simpler administration, a better user experience and a facility that is ready for further growth.

 

Some concrete results:

 

  • 12 doors modernized

  • existing wiring retained

  • approx. 50 users set up in the system

  • mobile access available from the start

  • faster and easier administration in operation

Why this was important to the customer

For buildings with existing infrastructure, an upgrade is not just about new technology, but about reducing risk, saving time, and getting a solution that works in practice from day one.

 

This delivery gave the customer:

 

  • rapid modernization without extensive intervention

  • easier management of users and access

  • better basis for operations and further expansion

  • lower complexity than with full replacement
