Gira Keyless In Fingerprint is based upon a biometric system and uses what is possibly the oldest means of identification: the fingerprint. Fingerprints are absolutely unique, and this makes them unbeatable as an entry code when paired with the latest biometric identification process. Gira works with high-frequency technology, which is currently one of the most secure methods on the market for keyless entry to a building. The technology recognises the fingerprint of the deepest layers of skin, so the device works reliably even if the surface of the skin is slightly injured, if fingers are a bit dirty or if the skin structure has changed with age. Gira Keyless In Fingerprint also identifies fingerprints of children from the age of six and, when the finger grows and changes, the system learns and saves the data again.

The Gira HomeServer continuously records and stores operating and consumption data for electricity, water, gas or heating oil. Trends can be easily tracked throughout the whole year by means of clear diagrams – using a PC, tablet, or the centrally installed Gira Control Clients. If significant deviations from average consumption occur, this is quickly detected with the energy module. This allows energy management to be easily optimised and adapted to a household’s individual requirements.

The sun’s energy can be intelligently integrated into the temperature control system by means of the perfect interaction of blinds and heating. This means that when the sun is in a favourable position in winter, the blinds are raised and the amount of heating is reduced accordingly. In contrast, unnecessary energy consumption can be prevented in summer by means of blinds automatically lowering in good time and the air conditioning reducing its output for this purpose.

Window open, heating off: The system detects when a door or window is opened by means of door and window contacts. After a defined period of time, the heating is automatically turned down in the corresponding room. The heating is not turned up until all windows and doors are closed. This prevents unnecessary heating, whilst ensuring that rooms always remain sufficiently heated.

With temperature sensors and servo motors on the heating valves, the system detects if the available flow temperature is too high or too low. Depending on the average outdoor temperature, this can then be adapted accordingly. The Gira HomeServer thus ensures optimum energy utilisation in the whole building all year long, while preventing unnecessary costs.

Quick reactions are crucial in dangerous situations. A panic button installed right next to the bed, for example, can be quickly activated if suspicious noises are heard at night or if the sensors detect movement in the garden. With one press of the button, all the lights in the house and garden are switched on immediately and the cameras start recording. The sudden brightness acts as a deterrent and usually causes intruders to flee.

In the entrance area, all the power-intensive devices can be switched off at the touch of a button using the central cut-off function. This guarantees that electricity is not consumed unnecessarily.

Presence and motion detectors ensure that lights are automatically switched on just when they are needed. If no motion is detected for a certain time, the light switches itself off again. In combination with brightness sensors, the intensity of the light can also be customised: If the sun is shining into the room more strongly, the light intensity is automatically reduced.

The Gira HomeServer also proves to be a true jack-of-all-trades for outdoor use, by entirely automatically initiating the sprinklers or watering system. The system can decide for itself when and how much watering is necessary. Its own KNX weather station or weather forecasts from the internet provide the data required for this purpose. This saves homeowners valuable time and effectively reduces their water consumption.

The two-floor residential property in the Bergischen Land looks surprising unspectacular from the outside. The dark wooden cladding made of Douglas fir, the spacious wooden terrace and the classic gabled roof blend in perfectly with the rural surroundings. But there is something a visitor would never guess at first glance: the architect’s home is full of technical refinements, is entirely networked, and ranks as a KfW Efficiency House 55 in terms of energy consumption – thanks to solar energy panels on the roof, well-insulated walls and networked Gira building technology.

At the heart of the Bergisches Land district of Germany is the idyllic Große Ledder seminar and recreational hotel complex set in a wooded area of 50 hectares. In eleven individually designed buildings, which are spread throughout the hilly landscape, there are 91 comfortable bedrooms and 13 light and airy conference rooms with modern media systems. The hotel is run by Bayer Gastronomie. In 2008 the process of gradually modernising and, where necessary, converting the buildings began. Intelligent building technology and a KNX network allow the separate facilities to be managed from a central location. They also make a significant contribution to saving energy and ensure the highest level of comfort for the hotel guests, while creating a strong sense of brand recognition.
