GEZE at the ISH trade fair
Frankfurt I 11 - 15 March 2019
Hall 10.3 I Stand B 30
Heating, air conditioning, lighting and shading aren't everything when it comes to smart buildings! Buildings become more worth living in – more convenient, more energy efficient and safer – when elements from different product groups of the building communicate with each other. That is the case for GEZE Cockpit, the first door, window and safety technology system. It enables system integration with BACnet and KNX, smart networking, central operation and monitoring of automated GEZE products. The function of doors and windows can be adapted to suit current user behaviour, or environmental conditions such as temperature, air quality or weather. The new building automation system can work independently, or be integrated into a building management system.
Networked and smart: operate doors and windows intelligently
The integrated networking of door and window technology with smart software and open BACnet interfaces provides completely new options when it comes to automating buildings for planners and operators. It is possible to integrate the entire 'intelligence' of GEZE products into building automation with GEZE Cockpit via the BACnet communication standard.
And that means all
- function elements
- operating options and
- status information.
Doors and windows can be operated intelligently because data from other participants and partial systems can also be used with BACnet. They can therefore be controlled and monitored with the highest degree of precision.
Automatically the right reaction for more convenience, energy efficiency and safety
Doors and windows open and close in a time or event-controlled manner. Scenarios for any situation can be easily programmed.
- On completely normal days
Automatic, accessible opening and closing of automatic doors in normal operation, regulation of a door's opening width.
- In the cold part of the year
Temperature control by means of reduced opening widths, keeping warm air in the building.
- The hotter the summer, the smarter the ventilation
Stale air is discharged, and fresh air supplied.
- Fresh in the day
Natural energy-saving night-time back cooling
- Whether it rains or pours
Windows are automatically closed once a defined rain intensity is reached.
- In wind or storms
Windows are automatically closed. Ventilation is maintained, the façade is protected.
- Danger or fire ahead
Automatic release of escape routes, opening of escape doors, and clearing of emergency exit routes.
Intelligent smoke and heat extraction via windows and doors
A real climate protector
GEZE Cockpit does not only make buildings more worth living in. It helps to save energy costs and conserve natural resources. In the age of climate change, GEZE Cockpit is a forward-looking system which enables us all to contribute to protecting the climate.

A gift of time – central monitoring
GEZE Cockpit improves the efficiency of facility management – inspection walkways to doors and windows are no longer needed. All elements connected to GEZE Cockpit report their status back. This means that unwanted door behaviour, alarm or error messages can be immediately identified. Countermeasures can be taken immediately.
Tablet or PC
GEZE Cockpit is operated with browser-based software. Any IP-capable device – be it a PC or tablet – can access and process information from the system. Up to 62 GEZE products can be connected to any system.
The optimal GEZE Cockpit: for people and buildings
Whether it is installed in office buildings, shopping centres, clinics, exhibition halls or airports – the system can be adapted to meet individual demands. We enter networking projects early on and support them intensively with our technical and specialist skills, because the GEZE Cockpit is only one of many. For this purpose, we connect all parties 4 I 6 involved in building development in an efficient network and provide inspirational impulses. This means that none of the needs of our customers or partners, the building users and operators or the building itself are forgotten: for multi-purposes solutions with the greatest uses.
Coordinated service packages
Depending on the individual use, GEZE Cockpit features different applications for use. They cover various needs within a building. Whichever software configuration is implemented, the comprehensive service package and the expertise of our networking specialists is always included.
Support in all project stages
- Planning/project planning and project management
- Configuration and commissioning
- Operator training
- Maintenance and support
Achieving every aim
Using the same hardware and software, GEZE offers various ways of connecting GEZE products based on a BACnet IP to all common building automation systems.
Easy integration into the building management system
Worth knowing for planners and system integrators: GEZE Cockpit connects GEZE products to the building management system via BACnet IP. With the “integration solution”, all relevant data points of the connected products are made available to the building management system for further processing in cross-functional and interdisciplinary scenarios.
- Easy connection of GEZE products to leading building management systems
- Safety for building operators: flawless integration of a range of functions of GEZE products into the building automation system
- Centralisation of functions
- Minimisation of interfaces
Independent solution
In the stand-alone solution, the GEZE Cockpit is used for door, window and safety technology applications in which less extensive building automation is sufficient, e.g. in small to medium projects.
GEZE Cockpit offers
- the potential for integration
- the browser-based central operation and monitoring of integrated GEZE components
- an in-house intuitive user interface for operators and users
The best of both worlds
The available integration and stand-alone solutions can be combined for a more comprehensive building automation. GEZE Cockpit can remain unchanged in the building.
- Simple connection to the building management system by means of extended software functions
