About SKS-Kinkel

SKS-Kinkel Elektronik GmbH is a family-owned company founded in 1977 and headquartered in Hof/Westerwald (Rhineland-Palatinate). The company manufactures and sells systems for building communication, including door intercom systems with audio and video indoor stations, individual door stations in flush-mounted and surface-mounted versions, mailbox systems, and parcel box systems. The portfolio is complemented by IP-based solutions, BUS components such as control and expansion modules, transformers, power supplies, as well as accessories and spare parts such as combination floor buttons and nameplate holders. The door stations are made of stainless steel V4A/V2A, anodized aluminum and plastic; pre-wired door stations and BUS programming via DIP switches are part of the system integration. Target groups are the electrical trade, property developers, architects and planning offices, as well as the housing industry. In addition to the standard portfolio, SKS offers customer-specific door stations in terms of material, color and installation type, supported by layout plans, tender texts, training courses in the in-house training center or on site, and technical support. Deliveries are made, among others, to Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg, Austria, Sweden and Switzerland.
