Nokia Arena's central location highlights the importance of access management. All access-related information must be easily accessible so that it can be used to react quickly. With Abloy’s access control system all access in the arena can be managed in a versatile and real-time manner. System interfaces enable integration with ABLOY solutions and third-party systems.
The Arena uses Abloy’s PROTEC² CLIQ locking products and keys, but opening is also possible with the help of smart devices. Through the system, an access permit can be distributed directly to a smart device and safely removed, anywhere, anytime. This makes it especially easier for partners to move around the premises. Handing over and receiving keys, granting access rights and reviewing the access register is effortless.

"We have introduced a wide range of keys. Access permits can be sent to smart devices, in which case the door opens with the help of a mobile phone or smartwatch in the blink of an eye. This way, for example, an ice hockey team training in the rink does not have to worry about losing the keys or returning them to the right place when the access rights expire at the end of the game shift. When granting access, it is also possible to determine which premises can and cannot be accessed,” says Jani Helenius, Property and Security Manager at Nokia Arena.
"The doors of the arena open with a smartphone or smartwatch, which is really clever. I am convinced that the hockey people will enjoy many moments in the new arena," says Jukka Peltola, Assistant Captain of the Finnish ice hockey league team Tappara. The team is one of the arena's regular users.
"In addition, we have procured wristbands with access tags for event organisers. This way, the key goes conveniently with you, and you don't have to put things down while you search your pocket for a key. Key management is easy as Abloy’s access control system gives an overall view of all readers, identifiers, keys and locks," Helenius adds.
"The locks are also integrated into the work shift system of the arena's restaurants. For example, when a waiter arrives at the beginning of his or her shift, the access rights granted to the person immediately take effect in the necessary premises", Abloy's Key Account Manager Mikael Ermala says.
Push bars speed up the exit in case of an emergency
Abloy’s access control system is also suitable for managing the overall safety of the property, which is why the locks on the arena doors are integrated with the fire alarm system. In emergencies, the evacuation of the arena is also swift thanks to the ABLOY EXIT push bars, also called panic bars or crash bars. All doors and exit routes in the customer spaces are equipped with push bars so that the doors can be opened quickly and easily, if necessary.
"Simulations during the construction phase have shown that 4,500 people can be guided away from the main floor of the arena in less than eight minutes. The entire arena can be emptied in about 15 to 20 minutes, in an optimal situation. This would not be possible without effective opening mechanisms on the exit routes," says Jani Helenius.
