TELENOT ELECTRONIC AG

What TELENOT ELECTRONIC AG does

TELENOT ELECTRONIC GMBH (operating under the TELENOT brand, with Swiss entity TELENOT ELECTRONIC AG referenced in firmographics and primary legal entity TELENOT ELECTRONIC GMBH in Aalen, Germany) is a privately held, family-connected German manufacturer of integrated electronic security systems. The company develops and produces alarm control panels (hiplex 8400H as flagship, replacing the legacy complex 400H), fire detection systems (hifire 4400/4100 XS), access control systems (hilock 5000 ZK), certified alarm transmission equipment (hiline1 ETH/LTE, comXline), and supporting components (motion detectors, magnetic contacts, gas detectors, signal devices) at its Aalen headquarters, where it operates an in-house EMC absorber test chamber and modern PCB production lines.

TELENOT positions itself as the einziger Systemanbieter (only single-system provider) covering intrusion, fire, access control, transmission, and intelligent building under one roof, anchored by the TEKKO building controller platform (with TC 10 terminal and FGW230 wireless gateway), the EBLCloud remote-monitoring service, and software suites including compasZ 5500 (with LDAP enterprise directory integration), hipas parameterization software, hiXserver digital platform, and the BuildSec 4.0 mobile app. All products carry VdS Schadenverhütung certification and the company holds Premium Marken Partner status with ZVEH plus memberships in BHE (Germany), VSÖ (Austria), and SES (Switzerland). Technology integration extends to third-party building automation via the myGEKKO partnership and to Siedle intercom systems.

The business model combines one-time hardware sales with recurring software/cloud subscriptions, fee-based training and certification programs, and professional planning services (Planungsservice, celebrating its 10-year anniversary in 2024) for complex projects. Distribution is exclusively indirect through the authorized Fachbetriebe specialist partner network and Autorisierte Telenot-Stützpunkte across DACH, supplemented by a dedicated Key-Account team for large multi-site enterprise customers (retail chains Decathlon/Takko/Fressnapf/REWE/Migros, VR-Bank, industrial firms thermofin/Kessler + Co/Alzner Automotive, healthcare and museum accounts). Pricing is project-based B2B quotation only — no public list pricing — and KfW government funding eligibility supports the residential Privatkunden segment, where German national-team goalkeeper Manuel Neuer serves as brand ambassador since 2025. Leadership comprises Managing Directors Anja Wunderle and Dr. Timo Stock.
