Salto's smart access technology represents a significant step forward in modernizing the Santiago Bernabéu, establishing the stadium as a safe and innovative venue that is prepared to provide unique experiences year-round.
The iconic Santiago Bernabéu Stadium has taken a major leap forward in security and operational excellence by implementing Salto’s cutting-edge access control platform. This innovative solution eliminates the need for mechanical keys, ushering in a new era of wireless security management. Real Madrid has placed its trust in Salto to modernize the access control system of the renovated stadium, transforming it into a safer, more efficient, and technologically advanced venue. With over 2,500 access points installed, the system enables real-time management of staff and visitor flow, offering flexible adaptation to the stadium’s diverse zones and the varied demands of each event.
The integrated solution, based on the Salto Space access control platform and advanced SVN data-on-card technology, eliminates the need for mechanical keys, thereby enhancing security and optimizing both user and visitor experiences while also improving operational management efficiency.
The Santiago Bernabéu has established itself as a state-of-the-art stadium, completely free of mechanical keys. Thanks to Salto and the collaboration of its partners, Arcón, Sabico, and i-SAI, security and physical access control management, as well as lockers and rooms, are centralized on a single platform, which simplifies administration and reinforces operational security. This system enables remote monitoring and management of access, with real-time traceability through Salto's ProAccess Space software. In addition, it optimizes resources and improves efficiency through advanced functionalities, including user registration, incident or security breach control, visitor management, security monitoring, mobile key access, and integrated dashboards, all with full compatibility and integration with other security systems.
With more than 1,000 active users, 50 defined zones, and its integration with the BMS system, this project reflects Real Madrid's commitment to a stadium that is active 24/7, open to sporting, cultural, and commercial events.
"The new Santiago Bernabéu Stadium required an innovative wireless system to provide smart access for all users at every access point, eliminating the need for mechanical keys. This solution has greatly enhanced user experience, security, and management efficiency, while seamlessly integrating with the stadium's requirements and aesthetics." - Rubén Ramos, Director of Salto Iberia.
The Salto access control system represents a decisive step in modernizing the Santiago Bernabéu, consolidating the stadium as a secure and innovative space ready to offer unique experiences all year round. It improves the security and experience of attendees, visitors and staff at both matches and events, thanks to Salto's integration with XS4 One electronic locks, Gantner's electronic lockers and its advanced access control system into the stadium's management processes. Salto's solution comprehensively addresses the needs of users at every stage and day of the week, ensuring an exceptional experience and smarter, more efficient management.
