Light switches with slide function, motion detectors, or modern temperature controllers: today, you have many options for managing your home technology. With the wide range of Gira control elements, you can bring versatile functionality and refined design to your walls.
How does it work? It is simple. Following the “Mix and Match” principle, the Gira System 55 allows you to combine different cover frames and inserts modularly and interchange them whenever you like.
What does “Mix and Match” mean?
The number 55 refers to standardised dimensions of 55 x 55 mm, used across all components in a total of eight Gira design lines. This allows you to integrate a wide range of inserts with different functions into a single frame. In line with the “Mix and Match” principle, you can combine elements freely to suit your needs.
This applies not only to classic light switches or sockets. Smart control elements such as the Gira pushbutton sensor 3 or a Gira home station can also be customised to match your individual preferences.
How does the Gira System 55 work?
The central inserts form the functional core of the Gira switch system, designed with a uniform square dimension of 55 x 55 millimetres. This allows you to integrate various inserts with different functions into a frame design of your choice.
From classic lighting control to Smart Home applications and door communication, more than 300 functions are available. Below, we introduce some of the most popular control and functional inserts from the Gira switch system in more detail.
More than 300 inserts in your preferred design
With over 300 functional inserts, the Gira System 55 offers maximum flexibility for individual combinations. These include:
Inserts for lighting control
Inserts for blind control
Inserts for heating control
Gira System 55 in the Smart Home
The Gira System 3000 offers an easy entry into the Smart Home world with intelligent control elements for lighting, heating, and blind control. With this system, you can conveniently manage functions via Bluetooth app, wall switch, motion detector, or timer. A range of different control attachments with various functions and operating modes is available.
Another key advantage is energy efficiency. By automating heating, lighting, and blinds, you can reduce energy consumption and lower costs.
Gira System 3000 touch top unit
With the Gira System 3000 touch top unit, you can control lighting and blinds with simple tapping or swiping, just like on a smartphone display. In addition to switching on and off, the intuitive touch interface allows precise adjustment: swipe your finger up or down to dim the light or set the exact position of the blinds.Gira blind and timer display
The blind and timer display offers a dedicated solution for convenient blind control with an intuitive sensor display. With a simple tap, you can define recurring schedules for blinds, shutters, or awnings on different days of the week and precisely regulate the amount of light in your living space.Gira System 3000 room temperature controller
The room temperature controller from the Gira System 3000 ensures a comfortable indoor climate in your home. Via app or directly on the control unit, you can set schedules with your preferred temperatures and automate your heating system accordingly.
Wired KNX technology: Smart Home control at the touch of a button
For those looking for more advanced solutions, a KNX Smart Home system is the ideal choice. In addition to blinds, lighting, and heating, you can integrate many other components such as door communication systems, alarm systems, or audio solutions. Once installed, the system can be expanded at any time.
The Gira System 55 also offers suitable, custom switch inserts for controlling KNX systems, combining versatile functionality with a wide range of design options. Here is a selection:
Gira pushbutton sensor 3 for KNX
With the KNX pushbutton sensor 3, you can assign up to eight individual functions for different devices. For example, you can control and adjust lighting, privacy settings, room temperature, and complex ambience scenarios combining light, blinds, and music at the touch of a button. An integrated temperature sensor ensures a consistently comfortable indoor climate by monitoring the room temperature and automatically adjusting the heating according to your predefined settings.Pushbutton for Gira One and KNX
At first glance, the KNX pushbutton looks like a classic light switch. What you do not see immediately is the smart technology behind it. It allows you to control light colour, brightness, and colour temperature, as well as measure the ambient temperature. Thanks to the Gira System 55, it is ideal for projects where a classic switch appearance is desired without compromising on smart functionality.
Like other KNX control devices, the Gira pushbutton sensor 4.55 allows you to manage your Smart Home intuitively. Depending on the configuration, the switch can cover a wide range of functions:
Switching
Dimming
LED control (colours and colour temperature, day/night switching, flashing, status display)
Shading control
Scene activation
Temperature measurement (via integrated temperature sensor)
Humidity measurement (via integrated humidity sensor)
Special Gira inserts for added convenience
From practical night lights to USB sockets, you can make everyday life more comfortable even without a comprehensive Smart Home system.
Gira Sensotec: Control your lighting automatically and without touch using Gira motion detectors. Thanks to high-frequency technology, the Gira Sensotec detects movement, depending on ambient brightness, and switches the light on or off as needed. As you approach, the insert activates a dimmed light. Within a closer detection range, a simple movement brings the light to full brightness. The Gira Sensotec LED also includes an integrated, glare-free LED light for improved orientation.
Gira USB socket: The new Gira USB socket allows you to charge your mobile devices directly via a USB-A or USB-C connection. This removes the need for an additional charger, while the standard socket remains available for other electrical devices.
Gira switch inserts also add practical functions to your entrance area, all in a design that matches your switches:
Surface-mounted video home station Plus: The surface-mounted video home station Plus enhances door communication when combined with an outdoor camera. On the integrated colour display, you can instantly see who is at your front door. You can also store recorded footage and access it at any time.
