Smart technology for sectional garage doors from Novoferm
Convenient door control by voice command / Even easier integration into existing smart home systems
SmartHome makes life easier, more convenient and safer. It is precisely these advantages that also characterise smart garage doors. With new technology, Novoferm sectional garage doors are now even more compatible with common smart home systems and convenient operation via voice control. In concrete terms, this means that you can check whether the door is closed at any time, even remotely.
Easily control garage doors via app
The Homematic IP and Delta Dore apps have been used to control sectional garage doors from Novoferm via smartphone for some time now. The new Novoferm WiFi module now opens up further possibilities - especially for voice control and even easier integration of the door into existing smart home systems. The module is connected to the garage door opener via a mini-USB interface and establishes a wireless connection between the smart home system and the door opener. This creates the conditions for using Amazon Alexa, Google Home and mediola for door control in no time at all. The WiFi module will be available in the second quarter of 2023.
"Alexa, open my sectional door"
With the Amazon Alexa smartphone app, sectional garage doors from Novoferm can now also be easily operated by voice control. Intuitive door control via voice assistant is now also possible via the Google Home app. With both apps, a voice command is all it takes to open or close the door or to control functions such as the automatic door status enquiry or the operator lighting smartly.
Practical all-in-one solution with mediola
As a partner of mediola, Novoferm is part of one of the most diverse cross-brand smart home platforms in Europe. The open smart home solution from mediola allows Novoferm door operators to be connected to other smart devices, regardless of manufacturer and radio technology, and thus expanded into a fully networked smart home. The integration of Amazon Alexa and Google Home is also possible. Operation is centralised via app or voice control and ensures maximum flexibility thanks to time and location-independent control.
To benefit from the numerous smart advantages of the All-in-One solution from mediola, all you need is the Novoferm WiFi module, a standard router and the mediola All-in-One gateway. The integration of Novoferm door operators into the mediola solutions will be possible in the second quarter of 2023.
