    Dormakaba expands in the healthcare sector

    Dormakaba is focussing on further growth in the healthcare sector. The provider of access solutions has reported an increased number of orders from the healthcare sector for the 2025/2026 financial year. According to a press release, dormakaba has secured projects in Norway, Germany and the USA as part of its market entry strategy.

    The Rümlang-based company, which operates worldwide in the field of locking technology, offers solutions for doors, including locks, door fittings, door automation, access control systems and mechanical locking systems, which are reportedly sold in 130 countries.

    In Norway, dormakaba has received an order for 5500 doors as part of the new New Aker hospital project. In the USA, entrance systems are being modernised and maintained and other services provided on behalf of two organisations in the healthcare sector. And in Germany, dormakaba has received an order from the m&i clinic group Enzensberg, which includes access solutions for 4500 doors. The total order volume is in the low double-digit million range.

    “These latest project successes demonstrate the growing demand for secure, efficient and innovative access solutions,” said dormakaba CEO Till Reuter. “These orders further strengthen our position in the healthcare sector and support our growth in this sector.”

    Access solutions in transition: focus on growth

    Dormakaba is shifting its strategy implementation from “Shape to Growth”. “Our strategic transformation is on track and is delivering lasting and tangible improvements in results,” explained CEO Till Reuter in a statement on the occasion of the Capital Markets Day 2024 of the globally active locking technology company from Rümlang. Now dormakaba wants to gradually focus on growth. Specifically, the company wants to “become the leading provider of access solutions by connecting the physical and digital worlds”, said Reuter.

    Growth is to be generated by increasing performance and innovation and reducing complexity in the portfolio and supply chain. For example, dormakaba plans to reduce its software platforms by around half. The hardware portfolio is to be made modular, starting with the door closers. The supply chains will be trimmed for resilience, simplicity and cost efficiency. In doing so, dormakaba is focusing on best-cost countries and the respective local production networks.

    The “consistent implementation” of the ongoing transformation program remains “the central key to achieving our medium-term goals,” explains Reuter. In order to increase performance, the company is also implementing new measures in the areas of productivity, shared business services, automation and digitalization. These are expected to generate additional savings of CHF 40 million over the next few years. For financial year 2025/26, dormakaba expects an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 16 and 18 percent.
