CDVI

CDVI is a manufacturer of access control and locking solutions founded in Paris in 1985 by David Benhammou. The company began with a wooden keypad that became the Digicode® brand, followed by a power supply with built-in battery backup. CDVI has expanded internationally and operates across ten markets, with production sites in France, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

CDVI was founded in Paris in 1985 by David Benhammou, an electrical engineer, who developed a wooden keypad to address access control challenges in apartment blocks; this became the Digicode® brand. The company then created a power supply that reduced voltage from 220V to 12V, the first on the market with a built-in 24-hour battery backup. In its first eight years, CDVI focused on keypads and power supplies primarily in France. Two years later, Yoram Benhamou joined his older brother David, marking the start of international expansion. CDVI evolved into a specialist in access control, encompassing online, encrypted, and stand-alone solutions, and is distinguished as the sole manufacturer globally to integrate readers, door automation solutions, locking systems, and power supplies into its comprehensive access control range. CDVI has production sites in France, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
