Hotel Technology Next Generation

PARIS, FRANCE | Modern and exquisite design and an amazing location on an artificial island in the Copenhagen Harbor are features that make the Copenhagen Island a special destination. Famous architect, Mr. Kim Utzon, especially chosen for this task, is known for his modern creations. Lighting was one of the key-elements in the design process and this 7-floor glass tower gives you an extraordinary feeling of water, light and sky. “Design is a very important element for such a unique building as the Copenhagen Island Hotel, and finding suitable hardware for doors can be challenging”, architect Kim Utzon says. “Signature by VingCard with its design-centric modern look was the perfect choice to compliment the modern design of the hotel”.

The Copenhagen Island Hotel is part of the Arp-Hansen Hotel Group, consisting of ten privately owned Danish hotels, all located at central addresses in Copenhagen and Gentofte.

Signature by VingCard is an electronic locking system especially developed with design and ease of use in mind. It is design conscious and appeals to the most sophisticated styles in the hotels worldwide. “We are extremely pleased with the design of the Signature by VingCard and from the beginning we were certain that the lock will blend in perfectly with our top modern hotel”, says Ms. Dorte Krak, President of Arp-Hansen Hotel Group. Signature “Trend” by VingCard blends into the more modern and contemporary hotel environments, where the Signature “Décor” by VingCard is designed for the more traditional and decorative styles. Signature by VingCard has improved the look and feel of the electronic guestroom door lock, makes it easier for guests to use key-cards when entering their rooms and stands out by blending in to any hotel environment. With its aesthetical design and minimal outside door hardware, Signature by VingCard is convincing more and more architects and interior designers all over the world being their favourite choice of electronic guestroom locking systems.

Signature “Trend” by VingCard is the style which is chosen to match the contemporary design at the Copenhagen Island.

Signature by VingCard, with its intuitively functional card insertion and the fact of being an extremely secure lock, delivers the same security and reliability that VingCard is known for worldwide.
