In 1979, EVVA rings in a new era of security technology with MCS. The system was developed in collaboration with Vienna's Technical University and has become one of the world's most well-known security [...] magnet technology is resistant to all magnetic fields that are found in daily life and forms part of EVVA’s extensive list of patents.

EVVA was given special recognition in 1984. The coveted gold medal from the Austrian Association of Patent Holders and Inventors was awarded for the MCS (Magnetic Code System) and for the K900 supplementary

e-Primo is a EVVA’s electronic cylinder with firmware developed in-house. The advantage: end users do not need to maintain the software themselves and therefore there is no need for ongoing updates. Ideal
