CDVI Products

CDVI products are access control and door hardware: electromagnetic locks with their brackets and housings, exit buttons, touchless exit switches and emergency door releases, proximity and MIFARE readers, keypads and credentials, and the Atrium IP controller. The page also carries 2EASY video door entry, gate transmitters and receivers, long-range vehicle readers and DIGIWAY automatic door parts such as the EN16005-KIT-U-SR.

Choosing CDVI Products

Plan a CDVI door from the lock outwards, then choose how people get in and out.

Maglocks and brackets

Surface maglocks such as the C3S11 (300 kg) and C5S11 (500 kg) are fail-safe, releasing when power is lost, and report lock status through a relay. For an external door, the I400SR has a stainless steel housing rated IP68 and IK10. The ML-350M-PL-12 is a 650 kg mortice lock fire tested to 60 minutes to EN14846. Z and L bracket kits such as the 300-ZLAC fit CDVI 300 kg and 400 kg surface maglocks on inward-opening doors.

Getting out: exit and emergency release

The RTE-EX green dome button is rated IP65 and IK10 for outdoor doors. Touchless switches such as the RTE-IRS and RTE-WIR release the door with a wave of the hand, which suits hospitals and schools. For emergencies, the EM200 is a break-glass release, and the DBB-22-04 combines a green dome exit button with a resettable double-pole release.

Readers, keypads and credentials

Proximity readers such as the STAR-PB mullion reader and the flush MOONARWB read 125 kHz cards and give a Wiegand 26, 30 or 44-bit output. For higher security, the K2 and K4 KRYPTO mullion readers take MIFARE DESFire EV2 cards as well as Bluetooth and NFC phone credentials, and the K4 adds a touch keypad. The standalone DGA keypad holds 100 user codes with no separate controller. The Atrium A22K controls 2 doors and 4 readers over IP.

Frequently asked questions

What is CDVI access control?

CDVI access control is a range of hardware for securing doors and gates, covering readers, keypads, controllers, credentials and electric locks. Small sites can use standalone keypads, while larger ones run networked controllers. Exit buttons, power supplies and brackets complete the door. The range here includes CDVI readers, maglocks, controllers and gate transmitters.

How do CDVI gate remotes work?

A CDVI gate remote is a handheld radio transmitter that sends a coded signal to a receiver wired into the gate or door controller. Rolling code technology uses a new code on the next press, which makes the signal hard to copy. A remote has to be paired with the receiver before it will work. The range here includes multi-channel transmitters and matching receivers.

What types of lock does CDVI make?

CDVI makes electromagnetic locks for surface and mortice fitting, along with electric strikes, solenoid bolts, electromechanical mortice locks and motorised deadbolts. Maglocks are usually fail-safe, releasing when power is lost, while some strikes can be fail-secure. Choose by door type, holding force and how the door must behave in a fire. The range here includes maglocks, strikes and bolts with fitting brackets.
