The German Design Council, a pivotal entity in Germany's design sector since 1953, annually celebrates innovative creations with its ICONIC AWARD. For 2025, dormakaba's Quantum Pixel+ electronic hotel lock received this prestigious accolade, highlighting its cutting-edge contribution to the hospitality industry.
Enhanced Convenience through Technology
dormakaba's Quantum Pixel+ lock revolutionises guest convenience by employing advanced technologies such as NFC, RFID, and Bluetooth® Low Energy. These smart technologies facilitate contactless room access via special ID cards or smartphones, streamlining the hotel experience for guests. Additionally, the lock’s sleek design allows seamless integration with both new and existing doors, where only a subtle round reader and door handle remain visible.
Streamlined Access Control for Hotels
The Quantum Pixel+ not only benefits guests but also enhances hotel management operations. By digitalising access rights, the lock offers greater transparency and ease in access control processes, proving to be an efficient asset for hoteliers.
dormakaba's Commitment to Innovation
"Global technological and user-centred aspects are decisive in the design. The presentation of the prestigious ICONIC AWARD to our Quantum Pixel+ electronic hotel lock shows once again that dormakaba brings innovative solutions with high customer benefits to the market," noted Bernhard Heitz, Head of Strategic Product Design at dormakaba. Heitz acknowledged the entire development team's efforts with the words, "Congratulations to the entire development team on this product solution!" He personally attended the award ceremony in Munich on 7 October 2025 to accept the honour.
