On February 4, 2025, Gilgen Door Systems acquired a majority stake in Access Entry Pty Ltd. This strategic acquisition is a significant step toward further expanding the company's market position in Australia and strengthening Gilgen's global presence.
Over the past 24 years, Access Entry has established itself as a leading provider of automatic doors in Australia, renowned for quality, efficiency, and safety. Headquartered in Seaford, Victoria, the company has production, sales, and service teams that consistently deliver first-class customer service. With additional offices in Sydney and Brisbane, the company is represented in the country's most important locations.
A successful partnership with Gilgen Door Systems has been in place since 2015. Gilgen acquired its first shares in the company in 2018, and since 2023, Access Entry has had its own Gilgen Academy in Melbourne.
Richard Whitfield, Managing Director, on the acquisition: “The Access Entry team is thrilled to be part of the Gilgen Group. Over the past ten years, we have successfully expanded our local market share with Gilgen products. Now, with the full support of the Gilgen team, we look forward to continuing our growth trajectory.”
“We are delighted to welcome Access Entry to our Gilgen Group after ten years of successful collaboration. We share the same ideas and vision for the Australian market. This acquisition is a further step toward expanding in the Australian market and improving our ability to offer our customers exceptional added value,” says CEO Peter Koller.
