Vision 4 is expiring. Many systems fail audits unnoticed. With Vision 5, you regain compliance and control within weeks. Learn how companies ended key chaos, implemented integrations seamlessly, and identified risks before they became reality.
Vision 4 ohne Support. What this means for your audit capability.
Since 1 January 2025, it is clear: portier Vision 4 has no more updates, no support, and no audit guarantee.
Organizations that continue to rely on Vision 4 manage access at their own risk and risk failing the next audit.
In 2025, Excel spreadsheets, custom solutions, or outdated software are no longer stopgap solutions. They are a security-critical vulnerability:
- No audit-proof evidence of who had access where and when
- No ISO/IEC 27001:2022 compliance
- No protection against NIS2, DORA or KRITIS requirements
- No technical updates or bug fixes
What used to be tolerated is now objected to.
Vision 5 brings control and compliance back
portier Vision 5 ist die aktuell unterstützte Version für Betreiber mit Compliance-Verantwortung. More than 250 organisations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland are already using them successfully – including utilities, public institutions and operators of critical infrastructures.
With Vision 5 you get:
✔ Audit-proof, fully documented protocols
✔ Certification according to ISO/IEC 27001:2022
✔ Immediate key assignment via app
✔ Migration innerhalb von 30 Tagen mit Unterstützung durch das portier Team
The crucial difference
Companies that switched to Vision 5 early report clear advantages: Auditability in weeks instead of months, seamless integration of existing systems, and full transparency for every access.
Who only reacts when the auditor comes, acts too late.

How DSW21 combines mechanical and digital access
Integration ohne Systemunterbrechung
Die Dortmunder Stadtwerke (DSW21) faced a typical challenge: a mature infrastructure with mechanical locking systems and new digital solutions.
Today, both worlds converge in a single interface with portier Vision 5. Clear, transparent, and without interruption.
No migration. No parallel systems. No lock-in.
Control over every type of access
With portier Vision 5, mechanical lockings and DOM ENiQ digital can be connected. Accesses are in Echtzeit dokumentiert. Prozesse bleiben revisionssicher und nachvollziehbar, without the need to replace existing systems.
Operators with complex infrastructure benefit especially. They receive a unified interface instead of parallel processes and full overview instead of data silos.
Voices from practice
“Our partnership with portier began in the mechanical field and is now consistently progressing digitally. The integration of ENiQ® into the portier platform demonstrates how we are jointly creating real added value for our customers.”
– Ralf Pütz, Leitung Vertrieb & Marketing Deutschland, DOM Sicherheitstechnik GmbH & Co. KG
“Our customers expect solutions that fit perfectly into existing structures without complex system changes. With portier, we were able to seamlessly integrate DOM ENiQ®. This is technically elegant, economically sensible, and a real upgrade for customers.”
– Markus Griese, Projektmanager, Tacke + Lindemann GmbH
Integration statt Migration
portier Vision 5 stands for Interoperability without compromise.
No proprietary systems. No loss of existing functions. No risk in the audit.
How a housing cooperative ended the key chaos
Transparency and control instead of Excel lists
Many housing cooperatives struggle with orders via Excel, email or telephone. Errors, queries and lack of traceability are the result. A German housing cooperative solved the problem with the Depotverwaltung in Vision 5 solved: revision-proof, transparent and immediately effective.
Initial situation
Unclear responsibilities, orders without overview, delayed processes. Administration und IT waren constantly busy with queries and the overview of key movements was lost. The result: Loss of time, errors, and increasing pressure in day-to-day business.
The solution with depot management in Vision 5
With the introduction of deposit management, the housing cooperative gained full control back
- Only authorized employees order directly in the system
- Every key movement is documented precisely by depot and location
- All processes are audit-proof and traceable
- No Excel lists, no follow-up questions, no wrong orders
The result
✔ Full overview über alle Schlüssel und Zylinder
✔ Less effort and fewer mistakes
✔ Revisionssichere Dokumentation ohne Zusatzarbeit
✔ Ein System, das skaliert statt blockiert
The conclusion
The housing cooperative has transferred its key management from a chaotic risk factor in eine revision-proof and efficient solution transformed. With the custody account management in Vision 5, Transparency and control reality without additional effort for administration or IT.

KWD kommt.
dormakaba data finally directly in portier Vision 5
Vision 5 will soon support the KWD format from dormakaba, in addition to the existing XML interface.
The next step in interoperability
Vision 5 will soon support the KWD format from dormakaba. This extends portier's existing XML interface with a format that is in particularly high demand in Germany and Switzerland.
What operators can now expect
- No more Excel lists
- No manual post-processing of users
- No audit gaps
Stattdessen: ein direct, verified data import: tamper-proof, KRITIS-compliant and auditable at any time.
Why it matters
Many operators still work with elaborate workarounds between systems. With KWD in Vision 5, this disruption is ended. Data from dormakaba flows directly into a central interface. This saves time, reduces errors and ensures that Compliance und Nachweise jederzeit belastbar bleiben.
Long overdue for many
KWD is a standard that is particularly frequently required by customers in DACH. With this extension, portier integrates real infrastructures without compromise: einfach, kompatibel und ohne Lock-in.
One system. All formats. Truly interoperable.
Pre-register now and stay informed when the rollout starts.
Who has access today often no longer belongs
Why visibility is crucial over access
In many organizations, the overview of access gradually lost. Roles ändern sich, Karten bleiben aktiv, Schattenzugänge entstehen.
What remains are Excel-Listen, Audit-Stress und Unsicherheit.
In the past, the porter knew, who was allowed in and why.
Today, card readers and systems decide, who do not know the context. Access is managed, but not understood.
portier Vision 5 bringt die Kontrolle zurück
Mit portier Vision 5 access will be granted again visible, verifiable and controllable in real time.
✔ Digital and mechanical systems in one interface
✔ Audit-proof protocols, ISO-compliant
✔ Centralized management of people, rights, and media
✔ Nahtlose Integration ohne Lock in
✔ Certified according to ISO/IEC 27001:2022
Vision 5 is today productively in use at utilities, authorities, and KRITIS operators in Europe. Organizations sichern damit ihre Auditfähigkeit, beenden Schattenzugänge und regain control.
Why act now
Reality shows: Who waits risks that access points remain undiscovered.
Any deviation from compliance requirements becomes visible in the audit and is objected to.
Vision 5 ensures that only the right people have the right access – securely documented and verifiable at any time.
Blick in die Zukunft
From 2026, portierX will expand this control with real-time intelligence.
Accesses expire automatically, risks are identified, rules enforced dynamically.
This is the next level. But the basis for this is today. Without Vision 5, there is no portierX.
