Case Study: Nexus (Tyne and Wear Metro) achieves decades of secure, reliable access with dormakaba's Kaba 20 master key system

Nexus - Customer Case Study

Nexus operates the Tyne and Wear Metro—a 60 km network carrying over forty million passenger journeys a year—and needed a reliable, adaptable locking solution to secure stations, perimeter fencing, track-side pedestrian gates, signal points, offices, high-voltage access and train controls. To meet that challenge Nexus chose dormakaba’s Kaba 20 mechanical master key system as its security platform.

dormakaba supplied a bespoke Kaba 20 master key system that integrates high-security cylinders and durable Kaba keys across the Metro estate. The solution has been in continuous use for nearly thirty years, proving highly reliable and forming the backbone of Nexus’s access control; it protects a 60 km network serving over 40 million journeys annually and remains the chosen platform for the next phase of the network.
