2nd Place at the GIT SECURITY AWARD 2010 in the Category D - window surveillance system ActivPilot Control RFID

With its pioneering technological design activPilot Control RFID, Winkhaus is setting new standards for window surveillance systems. activPilot Control RFID provides the best possible protection against deliberate damage and tampering with its state-of-the-art technology. In this currently unique window fitting, the magnetic alarm contact used in other such systems is replaced by an RFID-controlled lock sensor.

The high level of security provided by the RFID system is a result of contactless data transmission between the window sash and the window frame. The transponder is integrated into the sash while the corresponding lock sensor is incorporated into the frame. These two components communicate with one another as a unique pair via an individually coded connection. The system is VdS certified in class C.
