Automation and door systems for barrier-free buildings

From March 24 to 27, 2026, GEZE will showcase advancements in door and window technology at FENSTERBAU FRONTALE 2026 in Nuremberg. The focus is on new solutions for automated door systems, barrier-free access, and the integration of safety-related functions in buildings.

Swing door operator with integrated escape function
A key product innovation is the updated version of the Powerturn F/R swing door operator. The system enables barrier-free self-evacuation in emergency situations and combines requirements from fire protection and occupational safety regulations (ASR) within a single solution.

Unlike conventional systems that require multiple components, the operator integrates safety-relevant functions into one device. This reduces planning complexity and simplifies installation and maintenance. At the same time, the system supports applications in buildings with stringent requirements for escape and rescue routes.

Pivot door drive system compliant with EN 16005
With the new Axira pivot door drive system, GEZE introduces a solution for automated pivot doors that is certified in accordance with EN 16005. The system is designed for large and heavy door leaves and enables automatic operation in applications requiring high levels of comfort and safety.

Pivot doors are increasingly used in hotels, office buildings, and high-end residential projects. The drive system addresses these applications by combining load capacity, precise motion control, and compliance with safety standards.

Door closer technology and system integration
Another focus of the exhibition is the latest generation of door closers, developed to meet requirements for controlled closing, energy efficiency, and integration into building systems. These systems support fabricators and planners in meeting functional and regulatory requirements across different building types.

Applications in building technology
The presented solutions target applications in commercial buildings, public infrastructure, and high-end residential construction. They support the implementation of barrier-free access concepts, safe escape routes, and automated building processes.




Digital access to product information
In parallel with the exhibition, GEZE provides a digital press kit containing technical information and high-resolution images of the presented products. This enables structured access to relevant data for planning, project development, and reporting.
