Award winner
GEZE Door Technology Solutions has received two new awards from the German Design Council. The TS 5000 SoftClose door closer has been declared the winner in the Building Fixtures category at the ICONIC Awards 2019: Innovative Interior. Besides, the FA GC 170 wireless extension for hold-open systems received a special mention in the Building and Elements category at the German Design Awards.

Winner at ICONIC Awards
The aim of the ICONIC AWARDS: Innovative Interior is to discover the best in all areas of interior design considering outstanding practical value, functionality and usability, and the degree of innovation. Bearing all these elements, the new TS 5000 SoftClose door closer has been declared the winner in the Building Fixtures category at the ICONIC Awards 2019: Innovative Interior. Thanks to its high final closing force, it helps doors close exceptionally securely and quietly, even in the face of wind or suction; for instance on underground garage access doors or stairwells. TS 5000 Softclose is the perfect solution for customers who want their doors to close quietly and securely, like in hospitals, hotels and apartment buildings.

Special mention at German Design Award
The German Design Award is all about design quality. It is one of the most prestigious design competitions globally. The expert jury honoured the new GEZE FA GC 170 wireless extension for hold-open systems with a special mention in the Building & Elements category. This distinction is designed to honour the work whose design includes exceptionally successful aspects or solutions.
Fire protection doors need to close securely and automatically when the smoke switch is activated in case of an emergency; hold-open systems make them more accessible. FA GC 170 is a much welcomed retro-fitting solution that enables ceiling-mounted smoke detectors and manual trigger switches on GEZE hold-open systems to connect wirelessly to the wireless module on the lintel-mounted detector. This makes the door system an optimal solution if structural changes are undesirable or impossible, such as in listed buildings because they allow the design to remain unchanged.
