The smart high-speed door
Digital solutions to transform your business
The ‘Internet of Things’ - or IoT - has transformed all our lives. And with ASSA ABLOY Insight, we have optimised our portfolio of high-speed doors now and for the future.
For ASSA ABLOY, IoT has enabled us to optimise connected products in the smart buildings’ ecosystem. We can now offer a new level of proactive service, based on data insights gathered from our connected products. The data gathered helps you make even more informed business decisions.
Insight is our comprehensive digital entrance management platform designed to make your entrance solution smarter and even more efficient. It allows your business to stay one step ahead, empowering you to proactively predict and prevent issues, optimising the flow of your operations.
Why is ASSA ABLOY Insight relevant for you?
ASSA ABLOY Insight is an umbrella application offering you a range of connected services. And for our high-speed door portfolio, we have specifically developed certain features and functionality that make your door smarter.
As the main traffic interchange for goods, services, and personnel, high-speed doors help optimise business processes and energy efficiency in factories, production facilities, and warehouses. This is achieved by a combination of rapid opening and closing speeds as well as intelligent safety equipment and activators.
IoT can help detect door interruptions
IoT can help detect door interruptions
Problems occur when a door is compromised or hindered by obstacles or breakdowns. This is also commonly caused by a forklift impacting the door, a misaligned activator, or a triggered photocell – all of which can endanger an efficient flow of goods.
A high-speed door unintentionally left open can lead to energy loss, unwanted drafts, additional heating, and cooling costs, or, in the food and pharma industries, risk of contamination.
However, ASSA ABLOY Insight uses IoT data to detect and monitor door usage trends to actually prevent high-speed door disruptions.
How IoT helps you avoid these issues
ASSA ABLOY Insight has many key benefits to optimise operational efficiency:
- Shares immediate notification updates on affected doors
- Helps identify patterns and pinpoint these interventions
- Displays dashboard notifications and reports on affected doors
The smart, sustainable solution
The integration of IoT in high-speed doors is an innovative and proactive solution that helps you predict and prevent. Insight uses smart technology to display and analyse potential collisions, near misses, and energy loss.
This embedded software can be used to ensure that the door opens and closes with extreme precision and speed. In turn, this contributes significantly to the energy efficiency of the entire building, serving as an important building block for sustainability in building management.
ASSA ABLOY Insight high-speed door features
ASSA ABLOY Insight enables you to create a safer and more efficient workplace while generating actual savings through less energy consumption and less risk of door collisions. Here’s how:
Remote control and monitor
Monitor and access your industrial high-speed doors at any time or location, in real-time, even after hours or during an emergency. This gives you full control anytime and from anywhere to remotely open and close connected doors.
Pre-Sense
Monitor and receive notification about Pre-Sense events (i.e. the number of interrupted closings) in order to take immediate action on safety-critical events. This enables you to drive increased safety and efficiency at your site. Watch a video about Pre-Sense below.
Fine-tunable configurator
Configure settings to refine door automation and perfectly synchronise with your desired operational flow. This applies to either individual doors or the entire facility. This way you can optimise facility flow, with remote control for further convenience.
Obstruction detection
Monitor events and objects that hinder the door from closing (i.e. objects placed under the door or sensor tampering). This allows you to take swift action and prevent misuse, maintaining temperate control and reducing energy costs. Watch a video about obstruction detection below.

ASSA ABLOY Insight is not limited to our high-speed door portfolio. We strive to enable all our products and solutions with connective capabilities.
And with a wide range of additional standard features in our digital portfolio, Insight offers you all you need to transform your business, giving you greater control over your operations, which ultimately saves you time and money.
