Argus sensor barriers define a new elegance: a closed shape for fluid movement. The modules are clearly designed with straight lines and geometrical corner radii. Thus, two slim structures form one symmetrical unit with glass doors that appear weightless. The XEA design language, typical of dormakaba, combines basic shapes, colours, surfaces and control elements in a uniform look. In this way, the contemporary monoblock design of Argus makes many variations possible – with seamlessly integrated technology.


Argus 80 at a length of 1,660 mm achieves the maximum security level: The horizontal sensor strip is supplemented with a vertical sensor. In terms of aesthetics, Argus 80 offer greater freedom of choice, with many material and colour combinations, ambient lighting and the Full Cast Layer – a seamlessly wrought hand rail. One design from one piece.


The barrier-free 900 mm passage for wheelchair users, groups or material transports can be reduced to a standard 650 mm by adjusting the door opening angle, if required.


For a greater level of security, doors with a 1,800 mm upper edge height can be used. With an optional extended drive column as an additional security barrier.


With Argus 80, an additional, vertical sensor strip is installed, which achieves better recognition of subsequent, unauthorized people and also detects entry from the wrong direction. Likewise, the passage is thus limited to exactly one individual person even for people walking through with suitcases or for wheelchair users.
