The demands on door communication systems in contemporary buildings are rising. Property stakeholders are now in need of smart solutions that cater to diverse user groups and offer flexible access while maintaining high standards in security, connectivity, and integration.
In response, DoorBird has introduced the D22x series, a new lineup of IP video door intercoms. This series was developed based on customer feedback and merges advanced technology, adaptability, and premium design, all under the Made in Germany banner. As a part of the ASSA ABLOY Group, DoorBird provides innovative IP-based solutions enriched by extensive expertise in global access and building security.
Advanced features for enhanced security
The D22x series, with over 30 models, succeeds the globally recognised D21x series and incorporates numerous new features. Among these are models with digital nameplates that can be centrally managed, offering distinct advantages for property managers and operators of sizeable buildings.

The series is equipped with a 5 MP HDR camera featuring a Sony image sensor and a 180° ultra-wide-angle lens, ensuring superior visibility even in challenging lighting conditions. Video can be transmitted in HD quality over local networks or utilizing DoorBird Cloud Pro, while audio quality remains clear and understandable, allowing efficient communication between visitors and occupants.
Flexible access and integration options
The D22x series provides multiple authentication options depending on the model, including app-based access, dual-frequency RFID, Bluetooth, PIN codes, QR codes, and fingerprint recognition. Security is enhanced with a radar-based 4D motion sensor and an integrated tamper sensor. The series simplifies installation with integrated power outputs, reducing the need for additional power supplies, thus saving on cabling and overall system costs.
The range supports integration with up to 3,000 residential or office units and is equipped with open interfaces like SIP, OSDP, RS485, and Wiegand, complemented by comprehensively documented LAN and Cloud APIs. This allows compatibility with over 100 smart home systems, access control, video surveillance, and building management solutions. Further enhancing its capabilities, the station offers accessibility features such as a hearing loop, pictograms, and acoustic door-opening signals, staying aligned with DoorBird's adherence to the ISO/IEC 27001 certification and the Security by Design principle.
Cost-effective upgrades and customisation
The DoorBird 3D Configurator further enhances customisation, enabling changes to front panel size
The D22x series offers an economical solution for modernising existing DoorBird D21x installations by only requiring the main electronic unit's replacement. This allows continued use of existing components and settings, reducing installation costs and promoting environmental sustainability.
Design considerations allow for over 50 finishes and colour options, ensuring the door stations blend seamlessly with a variety of architectural styles, from private homes to prestigious commercial sites. The DoorBird 3D Configurator further enhances customisation, enabling changes to front panel size, engravings, and integration of reader units.
"Modern buildings require solutions that can adapt flexibly while remaining easy to integrate," states Sascha Keller, Founder and CEO of DoorBird. "With the D22x series, we provide a future-proof platform that combines powerful door communication, flexible access solutions, and sophisticated design Made in Germany."
Modern buildings are placing ever-increasing demands on door communication systems. Property owners, operators, and residents require intelligent solutions that accommodate different user groups, support flexible access methods, and meet high standards for security, connectivity, and integration.
With the new D22x series, DoorBird introduces a new generation of IP video door intercoms. Developed based on specific customer requirements, the series combines cutting-edge technology, exceptional flexibility, premium design, and Made in Germany quality. As part of the ASSA ABLOY Group, the global pioneer in access solutions, DoorBird combines innovative IP-based door communication with extensive expertise in modern building security.
Challenging lighting conditions
The D22x series comprises more than 30 models and is the direct successor to the globally successful D21x Series. New additions to the portfolio include versions with digital nameplates, which can be managed centrally and remotely, offering significant advantages for property managers, housing associations, and operators of larger buildings.
All models feature a 5 MP HDR camera with a Sony image sensor and a 180° ultra-wide-angle lens, providing excellent visibility of the entrance area even under challenging lighting conditions. Video transmission is available in HD quality via the local network or through DoorBird Cloud Pro. Outstanding audio performance ensures clear and intelligible communication between visitors and residents, even in demanding environments.
Depending on the model, a variety of authentication methods are available, including the app, dual-frequency RFID, Bluetooth, PIN code, QR code, and fingerprint recognition. The security concept is further enhanced by a radar-based 4D motion sensor and an integrated tamper sensor.
Comprehensively documented LAN
With the D22x series, DoorBird also simplifies installation. Thanks to the integrated power output for electric door openers, many installations no longer require a separate power supply for the door release mechanism. This reduces cabling complexity, saves installation time, and lowers overall system costs.
Open interfaces such as SIP, OSDP, RS485, and Wiegand, along with a comprehensively documented LAN and Cloud API, enable integration with more than 100 smart homes, access control, video surveillance, and building management systems.
Building management systems
The door station supports installations with up to 3,000 residential or office units. In addition to traditional call buttons, digital nameplates and displays with resident directories are available. Accessibility features can be added to every model, including an integrated hearing loop, pictograms, and acoustic door-opening confirmation signals. As an ISO/IEC 27001-certified company, DoorBird incorporates privacy and information security throughout the development process in accordance with the Security by Design principle.
The D22x series offers a particularly cost-effective way to modernise existing DoorBird D21x installations. When upgrading, only the main electronic unit needs to be replaced. Existing housings, front panels, and other components can continue to be used, while all existing settings can be retained. This significantly reduces installation effort and contributes to environmental sustainability.
Prestigious commercial properties
In addition to technology, design plays a central role. More than 50 finishes and color options allow seamless integration into a wide variety of architectural concepts, from private residences to prestigious commercial properties.
Using the DoorBird 3D Configurator, customers can customise the D22x series to their individual requirements. Front panel size and shape, engravings, mailboxes, and the integration of reader units from leading manufacturers can all be configured with maximum flexibility.
“Modern buildings require solutions that can adapt flexibly while remaining easy to integrate,” says Sascha Keller, Founder and CEO of DoorBird. “With the D22x series, we provide a future-proof platform that combines powerful door communication, flexible access solutions, and sophisticated design Made in Germany.”
