Makita, one of the world's major manufacturers of cordless, electric, and garden tools, has opened a completely new headquarters in Banska Bystrica,
Slovakia. At this location, Makita stock and distribute batteries for cordless tools plus run wholesale supply logistics from their warehouse.

At a facility like this, simplicity and clarity for both security managers and daily site users were essential. They demanded a single, intuitive system to control every access point for current times and in the future.

Key requirements

  • A comprehensive range of devices to secure fire/escape doors, entrances, and interior doors.
  • User-friendly software to control and filter employee or visitor access to specific areas of the plant.
  • Easy, cost-efficient installation for both hardware and software elements of the solution.
  • A system able to scale up or down as the facility’s security needs or space usage changes over time.

The diversity of Incedo-enabled devices and door solutions in ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions’ award-winning hardware range convinced Makita for this site and for new sites and future refurbishments around Slovakia.
