Residential buildings

Whether designing a new residential building or refurbishing an existing one, a smooth and premium building experience is essential for residents — while maintaining strong security and supporting energy-efficient operation. Personalized and secure people flow plays an important role in delivering this.

KONE Destination can be integrated with your access control solution for improved security, and user profiles support personalized features such as home floor calls. The accessibility function gives passengers extra time to reach the car, longer door dwell times, and fewer people assigned to the car.

Connected in-car displays can also be used to share topical building information and updates with residents, improving communication across the building.
