First-class electrical installation and equipment for modern hotel facilities
The atmosphere in high-class hotels impresses with design, comfort and functionality. The latter is achieved, among other things, by modern electrical installations. According to a hotel guest survey (2013) conducted by the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering IAO with the support of hrs.de, for 90% of business travelers, well-placed sockets are one of the most important criteria when choosing a business hotel. The sockets should also be available in sufficient numbers. Thanks to the Bachmann products, the electrical installations can elegantly blend in with the surroundings.
Hotel reception - useful equipment for efficient work
The reception is the contact point for all guests. Arrival and departure formalities are taken care of, questions answered and various services taken care of. At this interface, guests get their first impression of the hotel. It is all the more important to equip hotel employees with sockets that are perfectly aligned and tailored to them in order to guarantee an optimal workflow. Continue to create eye-catchers in the guests' perception with technical highlights.
The Bachmann DESK products create optimal conditions for data, media and energy management. The socket strips can be attached to the table or placed freely. They impress with a perfect orientation for the hotel employees, so that they can easily plug in power or USB cables. The DESK 1 and DESK 2 desk connection panels can be equipped with various communication modules - a design solution for modern workplaces. The desk connection panels are available with all internationally standard socket units.
Hotel Lobby - Creating design-oriented rooms with well thought-out electrical installations
The hotel lobby is the meet and greet area of a hotel. Hotel guests are waiting for other guests, people meet in good company or for a meeting. For the latter, a meeting room is no longer necessarily the first choice; according to the Fraunhofer IAO study, a "couch situation in a comfortable atmosphere" is just as "desirable". In modern hotels, executive floors, co-working spaces, business areas, lounges and public spaces are created for this purpose.
When business travelers shift their work to the partially public rooms of the hotel, they expect appropriate technical support from the hotel. In this context, the President of the Travel Industry Club, Dirk Brehmer, criticizes “that easily accessible sockets are scarce, even in well-known hotels”.
Desk connection panels - With the Bachmann products, hotel lobbies are equipped with socket and connection units in an elegant and design-oriented manner. The PIX series makes it possible, for example, to set color accents with decorative rings, and the POWER FRAME provides a wide range of combination options with sockets and data, audio and video modules. The hotel guests can charge their mobile phone or smartphone via USB directly on the table connection panel, while the tablet or notebook is charged through the normal power supply. The desk connection panels POWER FRAME COVER products have an elegant aluminum cover that was specially developed for design-oriented room concepts and also protects power and data connections from dust and dirt.
The WIRELESS CHARGER enables a technical highlight in the hotel lobby. It can be used to charge all QI-enabled mobile devices. No more plugs or annoying cables, the smartphone or tablet is simply placed on the charging module to charge.
Equipment as a success factor in well-used meeting/conference rooms
The conference rooms and seminar rooms in hotel complexes must offer easy access to modern room technology. What use is the best room if the sockets are under the table or only on the wall so that the cables hang in the room.
The hotel is responsible for creating optimal conditions. Bachmann offers optimal table connection panels as elements of a modern conference room. VENID, for example, impresses with its unusual design and high functionality. The original tabletop material can be quickly and easily integrated into the installation frame - this way, the tabletop and table connection panel form a harmonious unit.
CONFERENCE solves the individual access to the power and data supply in the most elegant and discreet way, both at conference and training tables as well as at high-quality workplaces. When not in use, the Bachmann CONFERENCE is integrated into the table surface. If connections are needed, all you have to do is press your thumb and the opening flap, which is held in place by a magnet, swings upwards. If notebook, beamer, microphone and Co. are connected, the opening flap can be closed again. The narrow flap on the opposite side adapts to the running cables, nothing is squeezed, the elegant look of the table is retained.
With the TOP FRAME, Bachmann offers another solution for a desk connection panel. Thanks to the fully retractable cover, power and data access is easily accessible from every seat at the table. The balanced geometry of the TOP FRAME fits elegantly into the table surface and allows it to be veneered with sophisticated surfaces.
The CONI also ensures free access to the power, media and data supply. Thanks to the integrated brush insert, the cover can be closed when the devices are plugged in without pinching the cable. CONI continues to impress with its minimal installation depth and robust frame design.
The nice thing about Bachmann's desk connection panels is that the modules can be freely selected. There is no restriction!
Hotel room - perfect equipment with Bachmann
Hotel rooms are travellers' retreats. In addition to modern furnishings and bright rooms, hotel guests increasingly value easily accessible sockets for charging smartphones or tablets. A number of factors must be taken into account when installing or planning the electrical system. For example: In addition to a sufficient number of sockets, these should be easily accessible. Since the smartphone is usually also the alarm clock, the corresponding socket should be as close as possible to the bed and not next to the garbage can on the other side of the room. Leave the (USB) sockets, for example, in the bedside table right next to the bed.
Bachmann offers exactly the right products for these needs. Almost all Bachmann desk connection panels can be used in hotel rooms. These include PIX, DUE, DESK 1 / DESK 2, CONFERENCE, TOP FRAME, CONI / CONI COVER, POWER FRAME / POWER FRAME COVER, TWIST, ELEVATOR and the LIFT. A wall solution is possible with KAPSA, for example. All of the facility solutions mentioned can be assigned individually with the Bachmann custom modules.
The LanLight can be used for complete equipment. The modular installation solution combines energy, network connectivity, media connections and even lighting in a multifunctional system and enables the flexible use and design of office areas with consistent modularity. The supply system creates order when connecting the workplace, thus increasing safety and, with its clear design language and high-quality material, blends harmoniously and discreetly into the ambience.
Hotel room - bathroom equipment
For many guests, the hotel bathroom is a decisive criterion when choosing a hotel. A well-kept, comfortable hotel bathroom is a beautiful experience and a reason for guests to return. Particular attention should therefore be paid to planning the bathroom in hotel rooms.
Sockets should be placed near the use of electrical devices such as razors, hair dryers, oral irrigators or electric toothbrushes. Illuminated cosmetic mirrors require at least two lighting outlets. If a whirlpool or steam shower is planned, this bathroom equipment also requires a separate electrical connection.
Comfort is in the detail, sockets are not just sockets. Set accents and inspire hotel guests with high-quality connector panels. This is achieved, for example, with the socket units DUE or ELEVATOR. Both Bachmann products adapt optimally to the work environment and integrate power and data connections in the smallest of spaces. The TWIST and TWIST2 are also ideal and not only impress with their low installation depth. The socket units mentioned can be easily closed when not in use.
