Introduction
Have your children moved out? Has your favourite colour changed over the years? Are you looking for more convenience in your home?
These are all good reasons to think about upgrading your electrical systems and to better adapt your living space to your current needs. And if you buy an old house or apartment, you should think about the electrics, as electrical installations and moving parts such as switches can wear out over time.
Saving energy when heating, controlling light automatically in line with individual needs, living in a home that is modernised to suit your needs based on your age: with our intelligent solutions, you can control all functions in the conventional way with switches or set up a state-of-the-art Smart Home. Whatever you choose, modernisation should make living more pleasant and cosy - simply put, it should be more comfortable than before. You don't have to invest on a large scale as improvements in comfort and convenience can often be achieved with individual intelligent measures. For accessibility and quality of life even in old age.
Highlights, facts and benefits
- A modern and smart electrical system increases the value of your house.
- Choose the design line to match the interior design.
- Enjoy more convenience, energy efficiency and security.
Design lines
A newly redecorated room with fresh paint, new flooring and furniture looks modern and inviting, but old switches and frames often disturb the overall look. A modern design line brings small but distinctive features, perfectly rounding off the style.
Don't change your personality. Change your design.
It goes without saying that a redecoration will give your home a fresh new look: new colours, new furniture, everything perfectly coordinated. But then suddenly you notice something that does nothing for your new aesthetic: the old switches and frames. They do not match the modern ambience.
With the Gira System 55, you can solve this problem easily! Thanks to the innovative modular system, design frames can be replaced at any time - tailored to your interior and style. Whether you're looking for fine glass, aluminium, stainless steel or the on-trend colours such as beige and brown - the choice is huge.
It's simple: insert, top unit, frame - one system, endless possibilities!
Whether you want a modern look, country house style or a Scandinavian design, with Gira, your home will always remain stylish.

Smart living
Kitchen
From functional area to living space.
In the past, kitchens were primarily functional work areas - practical but often without great comfort or cosy ambience. The set-up was designed to facilitate work processes without placing much emphasis on design and comfort.
Nowadays, modern kitchens are integrated into the living environment with their open design and are increasingly becoming the focal point of a home.
- Space-saving music control in the wall.
- Efficient charging directly from the wall.
- Design that adapts to kitchen style.
Systematic design.
Living room
From a wild mix of styles to a smart home.
In the 80s, chrome, velvet, leather, cord and much more were popular. But photo wallpapers and other fashions of the time left little space for design-oriented installation technology.
When it comes to automating functions in individual rooms, Gira has the right Smart Home solution for every requirement, combining living comfort, security and energy efficiency.
- Energy-saving and intelligent lighting control.
- Switchable socket outlets.
- Smart control by voice or smartphone.
- Shading controlled by timer and sun position.
Intuitively control your Smart Home.
Bathroom
From a simple bathroom to an oasis of wellness.
In the past, the main focus of bathroom design was practicality. Colourful tiles and a simple arrangement of the plumbed fittings were the norm, with the primary aim of being functional and easy to maintain.
Yet today, a bathroom is no longer just a functional room, but a place to relax and enjoy yourself. Today's bathrooms combine technology with comfort, offering a relaxing wellness atmosphere right at home thanks to innovative systems.
- Automatic ventilation control with delay time.
- Automatic light and dimming function for night time.
- Climate control.
- Gira IP radio with worldwide reception directly from the wall.
Comfort in the Gira Smart Home.
Bedroom
On. Off. Light. Dark.
In the 1980s, a digital alarm clock was the absolute must-have in every bedroom. Positioned next to the bedside lamp, it was a reliable and unmistakable workhorse of the bedroom.
Nowadays, you can wake up gently with your favourite music, automatically controlled shading or increasing levels of lighting. Smart lighting control not only makes your home more comfortable, but also saves electricity.
- Retrofittable Bluetooth® wall transmitters next to the beds for flexible lighting control.
- Dimmable lighting for a cosy ambience.
- Saving energy through combined shading and temperature control.
- Wake up naturally to the sun and your favourite music.
Saving energy in the Smart Home.
Hallway
Lighting on when needed.
We can all call to mind images of hallways with a coat rack, shoe cabinet, telephone table and a ceiling light offering only scant illumination, crossed at night on the way from bed to bathroom.
With automatic lighting, combined, for example, with motion detectors, you can move safely through your home even at night. By having lights come on only where you are, you can save energy while also increasing your comfort and safety.
- Presence detector for automatic light.
- Socket outlets with integrated LED lighting.
- Smoke alarm device for increased safety.
- Presence simulation and integrated alarm function.
Safety and security at home.
Entrance
From bell button to door station.
At one time, the bell was often the only level of connection between inside and outside.
You want to use a state-of-the-art door communication system to see who you are talking to. With automatic outdoor lighting when it's dark to increase safety and comfort.
- Motion detector for burglary prevention.
- See who is at the door when you're on the go.
- Keyless access with Keyless In products.
Safety and security at home.
Operating elements
From traditional to smart operation.
Gira makes it easy to increase the comfort of your home through switches, touch, voice control or, thanks to the app, even when you're on the go.
Gira rocker switches – a true classic.
The classic switch allows for conventional switching via the rocker function. Gira offers an almost unlimited variety of design lines, materials, surface finishes, shapes and colours that are system-compatible and easy to replace.
Gira touch top unit – pure intuition.
With its intuitive touch surfaces, the touch top unit combines traditional on and off with a convenient dimming function. This allows lights and blinds to be activated and adjusted via touch points and swipe surfaces.
The smart Gira system can be controlled from anywhere using the Gira app so you can always feel at home, even outside of your own four walls.
Gira System 3000 Bluetooth®
The Gira System 3000 Bluetooth® enables the user to conveniently control light, shading and temperature via the app, without the need for additional central control units. The system is easy to retrofit, which means it can be seamlessly integrated into existing installations and thereby offers a flexible and user-friendly solution for greater convenience and energy efficiency.
Pushbutton sensor 4.55 - Design that touches you.
The pushbutton sensor 4.55 for Gira One and KNX does not just impress with its award-winning design, it also controls temperature, air conditioning, shading and lighting with a single touch. It is possible to select individual elements or to create entire well-being scenarios.
Gira G1 – smarter multi-touch.
The intelligent Gira G1 central operating unit, with its wide range of functions, lets you intuitively control lighting, shading, temperature and much more, including via a timer or automatically set times.
Gira apps – Smart Home to go.
The Gira Smart Home apps enable user-friendly control of lighting, shading, temperature and many other functions directly from a smartphone or tablet. They offer an intuitive operating surface, remote access and the option of creating individual scenarios and automation for greater convenience and energy efficiency.
Smart Home voice control.
Tell your home what to do - literally. To do this, you need Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant and the Gira X1 server or Gira Home Server in the KNX Smart Home.

Sustainability
Does long-term climate protection not need short-term goals?
We are doing our bit to achieve the 1.5°C target. We therefore continuously measure and reduce our CO2 emissions. Our climate journey is an integral part of our corporate strategy.
We are conserving our resources.
And reducing CO2 emissions by implementing a packaging design that uses over 60% less material and is around 30% smaller upon dispatch. In addition, we are avoiding plastic and using FSC-certified recycled paper.
Sustainable design lines.
The use of natural materials generates approx. 75% less CO2 emissions in the production of our Gira Esprit linoleum-plywood.¹
Durable and environment- and climate-friendly.
Gira quality standards go above and beyond those established by certification standards. Our mechanical products are designed for a useful life of at least 20 years. The longer they are in use, the smaller their carbon footprint.
Renewable energies.
We have long been investing in the energy efficiency of our sites. We are now taking this a step further with the Gira Solar Park that is currently under construction. Once completed, it will generate 8.5 million kWh of electricity per year, enabling us to almost halve our direct electricity-related CO2 emissions.²
Climate-friendly and healthy construction.
Selected Gira products have been tested by the Sentinel Haus Institut to ensure that they are free from harmful substances and emissions. The "QNG ready" and "Geprüft gesund" (confirmed healthy) labels help you on your way to sustainable building certification.
¹ Determined on the basis of a life cycle assessment pursuant to ISO 14040 and EN 15804, compared to a Gira E2 1-gang pure white glossy reference frame.
² Taking 2021 as the reference year.
