Comprehensive security for data centers

The first impression counts and for data centers, the perimeter is the critical line of defense.

Unauthorized entry at this stage can jeopardize the entire operation.

dormakaba provides secure building entrances that ensure only verified personnel and deliveries get inside.

Our fire safety and emergency exit solutions not only keep people safe but also guarantee compliance with local regulations.

Together, they protect what matters most: uninterrupted operations.

Inside the building, precision access control becomes vital.

Data halls and server floors host the most sensitive IT equipment - and downtime is not an option. dormakaba offers smart card readers, biometric authentication, and mobile credentials that deliver flexible, secure access for staff and contractors.

Personal Interlocks, or mantraps, create a controlled, single-entry environment that prevents tailgating and ensures only verified individuals reach restricted zones.

Automated doors with electrified hardware support efficient movement, even during shift changes, while maintaining strict security.

The result: maximum uptime with reliable, verified access and minimum disruption.

In colocation data centers, different customers share the same infrastructure but security boundaries must remain crystal clear.

dormakaba solutions allow operators to define granular access rights for customer cages, meet-me rooms, and interconnection zones.

Permissions can be tailored by person, time, and location, ensuring each tenant’s environment remains isolated and secure.

This builds trust and makes compliance audits straightforward.

The rack is the heartbeat of every data center: housing servers that store and process business-critical information.

dormakaba’s electronic rack locks provide controlled, auditable access down to the individual server cabinet.

Combined with intelligent monitoring and integration into building management systems, every access attempt is logged, ensuring traceability and regulatory compliance.

For operators, this means full transparency and control at the most sensitive level.

Securing a data center is never a one-time project, it’s a continuous journey.

dormakaba supports operators from the very first planning phase through daily operation and modernization.

Our global service network offers consulting, installation, maintenance, and rapid support to keep systems running flawlessly.

With sustainable solutions designed for efficiency and environmental compliance, we help data centers stay secure, reliable, and future-proof - today and tomorrow.
