Salto Space

The world is currently coping with an unprecedented situation. Millions of people have been asked to stay home, stop travelling or work from home to stop the spread of COVID-19. Many hotel chains already use contactless smart technology such as mobile apps and digital keys to enable guests to seamlessly check-in and out, with coronavirus forcing the hotel and hospitality industry to adapt to new safety, security, and operations practices.

The SALTO Hospitality access control platform allows hotels to offer mobile check-in to guests, which reduces the number of human interactions and allows guests to access their room via SALTO’s native mobile access platform, JustIN Mobile. Using a smartphone, the guest is able to request the hotel room key prior to arrival. The hotel front desk is able to check the guest in via the Property Management System (PMS) and issue them a secure digital key directly to their smartphone.

How does this key app for hotel work?

The JustIN Mobile app replaces the need for a physical access card by securely sending a room key “Over the Air” (OTA) from SALTO’s ProAccess SPACE management software to a registered and verified iOS or Android device. The phone then uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to send a signal to the door’s electronic locks. If the phone is lost or stolen, access can immediately be updated via ProAccess SPACE.

With the JustIN Mobile application, SALTO has created an app that allows guests the power to manage check-in as well as additional aspects of a hotel stay from their smartphone. Guests can avoid lines at the front desk and check-in directly; replacing a physical room key with a smartphone by presenting the phone to the electronic lock on the door; access elevators; change rooms, and even check out. Additionally, staff members can manage visitor keys l to take advantage of digital technology to optimize guest satisfaction and the staff experience.

Using the JustIN app, the guest is able to download a mobile digital key and can then choose to go straight to their room, or they can ask for assistance at reception to ask for a regular check-in or a physical smart key. This enables the guest to make their own decision. Plus, the technology isn’t limited to hotel rooms – The mobile key can also be programmed to automatically use in the elevator, eliminating the need to touch buttons, on main entrance doors, car park barriers, meeting rooms, gym, locker rooms, guest services doors, and more.

Ensuring peace of mind for everyone who legitimately accesses a property, SALTO JustIN Mobile not only controls and secures guest rooms, it can also be used to manage all back-of-house doors used by staff, visitors and suppliers. Increasing security and safety by improving control of staff access and management of their access rights with digital key technology.

SALTO and our technology partners are driven by the opportunity for our hotel clients to provide a superior and safer guest experience to their clients, whether by offering mobile functionalities or superior security standards.

Covid-19 is accelerating the adoption of digital of automation in the hotel industry. The Corona crisis is not so much disruptive when it comes to digitization the hospitality operations and guest experience. Its impact has immediately become visible in hospitality technology, varying from automatic check-in solutions to digital key. To reduce the spread of germs in hotels is to give guests the option of automatic check-in, to deliver contactless service – including touch-less check-in and check-out – and ongoing help as needed. SALTO is compatible with many self-check-in kiosks and technology partners to deliver automation solutions that allow guests to control when and how they check-in. Automated services and self-service technologies in times of social distancing and integrating self-check-in technology into service operations helps address some of the issues around staff safety and new guest access to help practice effective social distancing. With sanitation now more of a priority than ever for hotels, we could see further investment in this type of technology after Covid-19. At the same time, automation does not necessarily result in the elimination of human roles, but rather, the shifting of resources to other areas.

Delivering multichannel self-service, automatic check-in and digital key is the future in the hotel industry. Major hotel chains are transitioning to “digital keys” and has introduced contactless check-in and check-outs which allow you to check-in and out (and pay your bill) via your mobile phone.

SALTO technology partnership examples with Roomatik, Hotel Bird, Myra, Nonius, Ariane, and StayNtouch solutions are fully compatible and integrated with SALTO’s hospitality platform, ProAccess SPACE front-desk management software. The SALTO platform can also be connected to an existing PMS or Channel Manager. Smart check-in kiosks are suitable for any SALTO installation and are compatible with any existing room key technology.

SALTO Hospitality solutions – together with trusted technology partners – are about bringing better security and usability to both guests and hotel operators. Guests gain convenience without sacrificing security and facility managers distinguish their property with cost-effective solutions that clients truly value.

COVID-19 and Hospitality Challenge: Re-define your hotel technology and guest experience.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we conduct business and perhaps no other industry has been impacted as significantly as the hospitality industry. SALTO Systems has a variety of methods to help hospitality improve hygiene with solutions like automatic check-in and mobile access and the inclusion of antimicrobial technology into the surface of our locks and products.

Moving forward post-COVID-19, hotels and lodging will have to make many adjustments to try to adapt their properties to the new security and hygienic requirements. Guests will never see some of the biggest changes happening in the hotel industry, which begin with digitalization, stringent employee safety and sanitation training.SALTO’s commitment to collaborate with the hospitality industry, our work with leading integration partners, and our commitment to technology mean we are well equipped to help the hospitality industry comply with their commitment to providing a healthy and safe environment for their guests.

SALTO Systems has released the SALTO Neo Cylinder – a new electronic cylinder that offers more features and better functionality than any other cylinder on the market to be used to manage all back-of-house doors used by staff, visitors and suppliers.

The compact SALTO Neo Cylinder is designed for doors where fitting an electronic escutcheon is not possible or required and can be installed on back-of-house doors, server racks, gates, cabinets, electric switches, sliding doors and more ensuring peace of mind for everyone who legitimately accesses a property. It’s available in an extensive range of models to suit almost any kind of door – from Europe to ASIA to the Americas.

The SALTO Neo Cylinder provides the most efficient and convenient way of securing your property and assets giving hotels the highest levels of comfort, ease and control, with an established fully integrated hospitality access control solution that allows running the hotel smoothly and securely, both in terms of cost and efficiency.

The re-engineered clutch system design makes efficient use of energy, dropping consumption to impressively low levels resulting in 100,000 / 130,000 cycles with just one set of batteries. System standby power consumption is reduced, which extends the electronic cylinder’s battery life.

The SALTO Neo Cylinder offers value far beyond security. Of course, upgrading a mechanical back-of-house and guest services doors to electronic access control enhances security, but the SALTO Neo Cylinder provides greater control over the door by offering end-users (guest and staff) access to audit trails, reports, alerts and so much more.

Because the SALTO Neo Cylinder is compatible with SALTO SVN, SALTO BLUEnet Wireless and SALTO JustIN Mobile technology is onboard every cylinder. This gives users and front-desk operators the capability to send or receive a mobile key to open any door or gate with an installed SALTO Neo Cylinder with their iOS or Android Bluetooth or NFC-enabled smartphone. This adds incredible convenience and efficiency for end-users in the field which is where a SALTO Neo Cylinder would most likely be used.

The SALTO Neo Cylinder adds SALTO SVN-Flex technology, which increases the potential, efficiency and reliability of the SALTO SVN, yielding better security, control and convenience for users and sites. SVN-Flex is managed via SALTO’s ProAccess SPACE front desk management web-based software. It dramatically reduces the cost of installing additional updating points in an access control system yet provides the capability of adding updating points where required. The options for affordable updating points are endless: perimetral doors, emergency exits, hall doors, gates equipped with mechanical cylinders and much more.

MAIN FEATURES:

Security is one of the most important factors in a locker room, as they are primarily designed to store items and valuables safely while people exercise, undergo spa treatments, work, or use other facility amenities. When considering a locker lock solution, you'll need to consider security, convenience, effective management, and ultimately what is best for your guest experience and property operations.

The growing popularity of mobile engagement with hotel guests can be seen through keyless smart access. Guests can now use their phones as digital room keys, to call an Uber, or use Google Maps — all within the hotel app. Some hotels also include a mobile requests feature within their apps so guests can request amenities or ask questions. The establishments themselves also contact guests via the app or text messaging to inquire about arrival times and any other needs guests may have prior to arrival.

With the SALTO XS4 Locker Lock, smart access technology is expanded to locker rooms which adds both ease and efficiency to the whole guest digital experience, from checking in to checking out. The capability of effectively extending real-time, online, and mobile-enabled smart electronic access control to lockers and cabinets has eluded the hospitality market – until now. By incorporating BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) technology into their latest electronic locker lock, SALTO has delivered a product that extends up-to-date comprehensive electronic access control to lockers, cabinets, and essentially anywhere on the peripheral.

The ability to deliver real-time smart access to locker rooms and cabinets wirelessly – and to link it to guest services – has been long desired in the hospitality industry. Hotel management has desired the capability to build the guest experience and to provide personalized service and extensive hotel amenities. There are a variety of needs for securing the contents of lockers and while SALTO has been a leader in providing electronic access control for lockers with the original XS4 Locker Lock, the new version adds BLE functionality which is a game-changer.

Adding BLE capabilities to SALTO’s XS4 Locker Lock solution not only offers the most up-to-date protection for lockers and cabinets, it also delivers the capability for guests and staff members to control these devices with mobile phones as a technology feature for hotels to take advantage of and to optimize guest satisfaction.
 

Keyless and mobile access to locker locks creates a more seamless and secure stay

SALTO XS4 Locker Locks are highly durable and have been constructed to withstand the unique environments often found in locker rooms. Security, hygiene, and cleanliness are such a crucial element in the maintenance of locker room spaces. Locker locks allow access to space underneath lockers, ensuring your whole floor space can be cleaned thoroughly and to an immaculate standard.

The SALTO XS4 Locker BLE is an ergonomic design based on the same housing and mechanical mechanisms of the original version. A locking thumb turn makes for easy use – even with wet hands. The outer thumb turn – with a red and green indicator for the availability of the locker – has an electronically-managed release. Ready-to-install into pre-existing doors, the XS4 Locker Lock BLE is designed to be the ideal product for the replacement locker lock and can be used to quickly secure any pre-existing cabinet.

And in an era where contagious viruses and bacteria dominate the headlines, it’s impressive that the XS4 Locker BLE comes standard with BioCote® Antimicrobial Technology that can reduce bacteria and viruses by up to 99.99%.
 

Mobile Technology helps automate and optimize the hotel guest experience

One of the primary benefits of a smart electronic access control solution is the ability to easily incorporate mobile access use. The SALTO XS4 Locker Lock BLE is JustIN Mobile compatible which means that any guest can use a smartphone (IOS or Android) to operate the locker lock.

Hotels can now take advantage of all the features mobile can offer. Being able to check-in and out, unlock a guest room, order room service, and make amenity bookings are all actions guests will be thrilled to perform via the guest mobile phone application. Adding JustIN mobile functionality to a locker lock means adding more features that can be conducted over the phone network, like updating credentials; blacklist transmission; automatic audit trail collection; and automatic battery status collection.
 

Guest experience goes to a new level with mobile-enabled smart Locker Lock technology

Platform management systems including SALTO ProAccess SPACE front-desk management software are equally as important as the hardware component of the new SALTO XS4 Locker BLE. ProAccess SPACE advanced hospitality web-based access control management software provides hotel operators with the real-time view of locker usage with available reports and log files of each individual smart locker deployment, the ability to control lockers remotely, firmware update capability via wireless infrastructure, remote locker opening, emergency opening, lockdown capability, and the ability to easily control all access and building user management needs with one easy-to-use system and friendly user interface. This safe and secure management is fully compliant with GDPR standards.

The SALTO XS4 Locker with embedded BLE technology and system features make this product an excellent solution for hotels that require a locking solution for a controlled, easy-to-operate, and fully-integrated mobile access technology system that improves the guest experience and property operations.

Hotel and hospitality guests today expect automation and solutions that allow them to control when and how they check-in, check-out, and access a guest room. By delivering, together with Roommatik self-check-in kiosks, a comprehensive range of self-check-in machines for all types of accommodation facilities, SALTO helps improve and streamline operations while also boosting overall customer service that gives guests more control over their stay and experience. Self-check-in has one of the greatest advantages going for it – guests have the power to choose when they use it and at their convenience.
 

Self-services in hotels – in terms of automated check-in, checkout, secure payment, etc. – leave more opportunity for human interactions and provide your guests with a hotel experience they value and want to repeat by facilitating their check-in experience without sacrificing their security and comfort.
 

Self-service is also timely: automated services and self-service technologies in times of social distancing, and integrating self-check-in technology into service operations, could help address some of the issues around staff safety and new guest access to help practice effective social distancing.
 

To simplify the check-in process through automation, deliver the digital experience, and improve guest relations, the Roommatik solution is fully compatible and integrated with the SALTO Hospitality platform: ProAccess SPACE front-desk management software. It can also be connected to your existing PMS or Channel Manager. The Roommatik and SALTO integration makes it possible to completely automate the check-in process, meeting all country-specific legal requirements. Many actions are now available from within the integration: retrieve reservation data, scan the guest’s ID documents, sign the registration form, accept credit card or cash payment, and issue the room key.
 

The SALTO Hospitality technology partnership with the Roomatik guest self-check-in solution allows hotels to simplify processes such as check-in and check-out and enables an overall digital experience. Roommatik check-in kiosks are suitable for any SALTO installation and are compatible with any existing room key technology.

• Integrates with SALTO ProAccess SPACE front desk management software and SALTO Systems' complete smart door locking range – door locks, wall readers, electronic cylinders, and smart locker locks.

SALTO Hospitality solutions – together with trusted technology partners – are about bringing better security and usability to both guests and hotel operators. Guests gain convenience without sacrificing security and facility managers distinguish their property with cost-effective solutions that clients truly value.

SALTO Systems has upgraded MyLock, the online lock customization tool that allows users to choose and see potential door configurations prior to final architectural project and design definition.

With MyLock, users can select a SALTO electronic lock model, door type, and choose from a broad range of colors, finishes, handles, and functions. The new MyLock design has an improved user experience for web as well as mobile access and adds important new capability including configuring accessory products like wall readers. SALTO SPACE access control management software and SALTO KS Keys as a Service compatible product ranges are also included.

Whether it’s a change model, finish, or door type texture, SALTO MyLock users can easily navigate through a menu to make their selection and customize the chosen model as much as possible. User can choose between different door standards and technology platforms, like SALTO SPACE access management software or SALTO KS cloud-based solution, and opening mode options like contactless smart card, mobile key, or keypad.

https://mylock.saltosystems.com/

Users can now make more than one configuration in a single MyLock session which allows those seeking electronic lock solutions the capability to configure a variety of door models within a building. Once completed, a MyLock user can preview and download 3D and 2D files including BIM files in a variety of industry formats including Revit, STP, DWG, JPEG, PDF, and more.

SALTO developed MyLock to aid project designers and planners and provide them the capability to see how their electronic lock choices work with a variety of doors. This new MyLock design has simplified the user interface and website navigation to provide users with the most positive experience as possible as they carefully construct the access point model that best suits their access control and security needs.

Today’s hotels are like mini city – a building of interconnected ecosystems that offer guests diverse experience options for their stay. It’s important for every staff department behind the scenes to be interconnected as well, incorporating technologies to create a high quality and unique guest experience that streamlines the front-of-house, staff, and behind the scenes operations.

Hotel operations can be separated into two groups - Front-of-House (FOH) and Back-of-House (BOH) operations. FOH employees are adept at dealing with customers face-to-face; the superior guest experience starts with a warm welcome upon a guest’s arrival at the front desk. There's no substitute or shortcut for a wonderful guest experience. But technology is changing the expectations and experiences of travelers around the world. When guests arrive at a hotel, they want to check-in quickly and make the most of their time, whether they are traveling for professional or leisure purposes. This means that all the steps of the check-in process - from issuing a card to the guest to them being able to access their room, swimming pool, spa, or other amenity - need to work flawlessly.

SALTO Hospitality has been developing advanced technologies and smart access control solutions that streamline hospitality operations and help hotels create an excellent guest experience. From mobile access and wireless online hotel locks to front desk management software, SALTO has developed specific add-ons which allow hotel clients to easily control all access and guest management needs with one easy-to-use system. SALTO’s hospitality access control platform suits hotels of all types and sizes and provides better utilization of hotel rooms, suites, and meeting space infrastructure. The result empowers hotel property operators the capability to integrate emerging technologies and applications that are transforming the guest stay via connectivity to guest room doors resulting in bringing more services into the guest experience.

The BOH is the behind-the-scenes and personnel areas that guests typically don’t interact with - the kitchen, storage areas, laundry room, business offices, etc. Hidden away, BOH acts as a central command center, keeping hotel operations moving smoothly and where employees work to provide an outstanding guest experience and enhance staff satisfaction. It’s essential to incorporate smart access control technology in BOH as well as FOH areas as, for starters, keeping guests out of these areas is an important way to enhance safety while also keeping property and personnel areas secure. SALTO not only controls and secures guest rooms, it can also be used to manage all BOH doors used by staff, visitors, and suppliers.

Keyless and mobile staff security controls pave the way for context-aware access and a safer staff member experience. Hotel operators can increase security and prevent fraud by improving control of staff access and management of employee access rights. Lost key instant cancellation gives staff (and guests) increased security and peace of mind. A productive hotel work environment with a secured access plan that protects staff and public areas works to keep everyone secure in the hotel ecosystem. Further advantages are gained by ensuring keyless ease-of-access throughout the hotel. This replaces the need for mechanical keys or non-flexible and connected access control solutions for hospitality.

SALTO has specific products like JustIN Mobile and SVN-Flex that provide a safe and convenient environment for guests, visitors, and staff and deliver the most up-to-date user access information for virtually all doors. Using solutions that can manage door access in real time enhances security and improves overall staff and guest flow throughout the hotel property.

SALTO hospitality smart access control solutions deliver an exponential increase in security, control, effectiveness, and convenience for hotel guests and staff. The communication between different access points around the hotel for both operations and guest room door locks flows in real-time on wireless online access points and much faster on offline points, resulting in the most up-to-date system available in the hospitality market for access control. Incorporating SALTO hospitality access control solutions can improve both the guest and staff experience, whether it’s in the front or back of house, delivering the potential to improve operations and increase the bottom line.

Salto Visitor Management System

Managing visitors in hospitality – or any commercial environment – is an essential access control activity traditionally handled through paper forms or guestbooks. Visitors sign in at the front hotel or security desk which involves time on behalf of the employee - and a wait for the guest - that can drastically impact staff performance and the guest experience.

Salto has a Visitor Management Module that streamlines visitor registration, tracking, and reporting and can drastically improve your visitor management while also elevating the guest experience.

How does it work Salto ProAccess SPACE?

The Salto ProAccess SPACE Visitor Management Module allows you to modernize your approach by taking the visitor management process to the next level: paperless, more efficient, flexible, and secure. ProAccess SPACE visitor management allows you to assign and create credentials for new visitors, assign physical access rights, and track visitor movements with ease. You can issue visitor cards for a few hours, a few days - or for something in between - and all with a built-in cancellation date that will disable the credential automatically when it expires. This solution delivers a more flexible and efficient check-in and check-out system that enhances security and also meets compliance mandates for the collection and auditing of visitor data.

ProAccess SPACE visitor management users quickly discover that the visitor management module is intuitive and reduces the time required to register new and returning visitors. Hotel staff can even save time and pre-register visitors via the simple web-based interface, making it easier for security staff or administration to swiftly check-in visitors when they arrive at the front entrance.

Because the visitor module is embedded within the Salto ProAccess SPACE web-based interface, your operators and staff can manage visitors alongside the other security activities they routinely conduct. And because it’s the same Salto software they are accustomed to, operators do not have to install and learn a separate visitor tool.

When evaluating how you can improve visitor management - and save time and money for your hotel - consider exploring what the ProAccess SPACE Visitor Management Module can do for your property and the guest experience.

How are hotel door locks powered?

Battery life is particularly important in an electronic access control solution that relies on battery-operated locks. If a user experiences product downtime due to dead batteries or gets frustrated with having to change batteries too frequently, they will likely choose not to use a battery-powered smart lock. This is rather unfortunate because the right battery-powered lock in an access control solution can improve both hotel efficiency and the guest experience.
 

Battery operated locks: the best solution for your hotel

Smart lock systems often contain many integrated circuits such as LED light-emitting signalling, RFID, and a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) microcontroller with wireless and mobile connectivity or motor driver. Salto’s battery power technology for battery-operated locks offers a cost-effective and far superior solution than others in the market.

Many traditional building operators still use wired access control and are perhaps unaware that wireless systems use a lot less energy and are more secure when monitoring what's happening 24/7 at their property. Because wireless locks are battery powered and only "wake-up" when a guest or staff key card is presented, they consume less power than that used by hardwired online locks. Wireless electronic locks provide better cost, convenience, and aesthetics than a wired solution - achieving wired system benefits without the cost of a hardwired system. Plus, wire-free, battery-powered locks are easy to retrofit on the variety of doors used in a hospitality setting including guest rooms, amenities, and Back-Of-House (BOH) operations.
 

There’s also the question of sustainability. With many businesses evaluating their carbon footprint and impact on the environment, some might ask how using a battery-powered lock can complement a green commitment. How “green” is it to employ a battery-based system? There are significant cost savings in moving away from a reliance on electrical power. This of course lowers the carbon footprint. Additionally, batteries used in a battery-powered electronic access control system can be recycled resulting in further reduction of ones carbon footprint.

Salto SVN data-on-card

Salto’s electronic battery-powered locks provide an access control technology that - together with ProAccess SPACE front-desk management software - allows stand-alone Salto smart wireless hotel locks to update, store, and send the latest access information and lock battery status from a user’s and guest smartkey throughout the building - wirelessly and remotely - via SVN. This data is captured from a guest or staff member access credential that’s used at a wirelessly-networked smart lock or an online IP SVN access point that can be located at strategic points throughout the building.

The “updating access points” download and revalidate user-related access plan information that is then used to permit or deny access. This smart solution allows hotel employees to manage and secure access control for an entire hotel property right from the front-desk. They can check battery status (to optimize maintenance and battery life) and obtain user event information in just a few easy clicks.
 

Salto BLUEnet Wireless real-time

The advanced smart technology that Salto has integrated into every BLUEnet generation smart lock also permits battery status management and audit trail recovery in real-time via a Business Automation System (BAS) integration with Guest Room Management Systems (GRMS). Hotels can now integrate seamlessly with a wide variety of Salto wireless locks that bring intelligent and dependable automation for guest rooms and operating enhancements that provide the most reliable, cost-effective, and technologically-advanced guest room system. Salto BLUEnet wireless is designed for doors where real-time control is required and can be installed as an independent system or can complement SVN. It dramatically reduces the cost of installing additional updating points in an access control system yet provides the capability of adding updating points where required thanks to SVN-Flex technology. The options for affordable updating points are endless: perimetral doors, emergency exits, hall doors, gates equipped with mechanical cylinders and much more.

Salto JustIN Mobile

One of the primary benefits of a wire-free electronic access control solution is the ability to easily incorporate mobile access use into a hotel property. Mobile technology now plays a vital role in the hotel industry. The most recent data reveals that almost half of travel searches begin on a smartphone. And the booking process is just the start. The real technological magic can present itself when the guest arrives and checks in and gains access to their room only using their smartphone and a mobile application! In addition to supplying guests the capability to unlock a guest room door, Salto’s mobile app - JustIN Mobile - can send lock audit trail and battery status notifications directly to the front desk.

Hotels are now presented with the opportunity to use smart technology to create meaningful, customized experiences that enhance a guest’s entire stay. By incorporating the latest in technology to help hotels provide efficient and smart battery-powered electronic lock solutions, Salto helps hotels improve both operations and the guest experience.
