A world leader in manufacturing plastic storage containers, Sistema's head office in Mangere, Auckland boasts a striking facility design by Woodhams Meikle Zhan Architects. With roughly 3,500m² of office space and 50,000m² of manufacturing, storage and distribution areas, their enthusiastic adoption of advanced technology is echoed in the blueprint of the building. Dormakaba generated a detailed specification and schedule for the hardware requirements of the facility, as well as automatic door requirements and specific design and custom needs.
Dormakaba's approach to the specifications focuses on being a one stop shop — a single solution source covering every aspect of the building's architectural hardware, security and access control needs. This often reduces the need for additional consultants and ensures seamless integration of the hardware, security and access control requirements, as well as compliance with relevant building standards and codes.
Among dormakaba products used in the specification were ES200 Automatic Sliding Doors, Coastal Stainless Steel Plate Furniture Door Hardware and Madinoz Stainless Steel Round Rose Door Hardware and Pull Handles.
Although most of the components, products and solutions specified are from the dormakaba stable, dormakaba's team can write total specification solutions for partners no matter the brand or source.
Striving to develop innovative access solutions for buildings and rooms, dormakaba are committed to bringing specifiers secure, sustainable and reliable products and services now and into the future.
