Case Study: The Cloister achieves timeless, seamless luxury and enhanced security with dormakaba architectural hardware

The Cloister - Customer Case Study

The Cloister, a historic luxury hotel at Sea Island, GA, faced a full reconstruction that had to meet the exacting expectations of celebrities, royalty and heads of state. dormakaba was engaged to supply architectural hardware, with a family of coordinated products chosen to complement the resort’s Mediterranean-inspired design without detracting from its timeless elegance.

dormakaba’s solution delivered a seamless, unobtrusive hardware aesthetic that blended with the Cloister’s distinctive appearance while providing reliable safety and security across the property. The work was integrated into the overall reconstruction (completed March 2016), resulting in a cohesive, high-quality finish that met the resort’s exacting design and operational standards.
