Eurasberg Municipality

Eurasburg is located in the Loisach Valley, near Lake Starnberg in Bavaria. A total of around 4,400 inhabitants live in its 52 districts, which cover an area of almost 41 square kilometres.

The municipality was looking for a new, flexible, electronic locking solution which would meet today’s security standards. It was required for various properties including the town hall, school buildings, a public works yard, another town hall in Achmühle and fire stations in Beuerberg, Herrhausen and Eurasburg.

Until now the buildings — some quite far apart from one another — had been secured with an ASSA ABLOY mechanical master key system dating from 1976. The municipal government had been very satisfied with the performance of this system for many years. 

Solution

Eurasburg Municipality decided on the eCLIQ fully electronic, programmable key access control system from ASSA ABLOY. This system offers maximum flexibility combined with modern master key system management. Reliable and uncomplicated, the solution stands out for its compact form, striking design and robust, durable, secure components.

An eCLIQ system can be managed via a flexible, easily scalable cloud-based platform: CLIQ^® Web Manager (CWM). The software is particularly suitable for large systems or when a number of locations are far apart from one another, as is the case in Eurasburg. Because the CWM client is platform independent, and therefore suitable for any standard web browser, it was easily installed on the municipality’s server.

Another crucial function was the ability to change a key’s authorizations easily and flexibly via access rights management. Any lost or stolen keys are simply deactivated via the CWM interface. Authorizations with time and/or room restrictions are also made possible. For instance, municipality staff can issue technicians with a single authorization for a specific task, or cleaners can be granted access only at specific times. It streamlines the management of Eurasburg’s service providers.
