Ambiance is current dormakaba software, but it is named in the 2024 Unsaflok and 2025 Saflok advisories. The real question is whether your fleet has actually been remediated.
Replace dormakaba Ambiance locks in Orlando.
RevKey is a Certified Salto Partner and veteran-owned business that plans and installs Salto for dormakaba Ambiance properties in Orlando, migrating you off dormakaba Ambiance floor by floor without pulling rooms out of inventory.
An Orlando Ambiance property usually starts the Salto conversation for one of two honest reasons: the Unsaflok disclosure that named Ambiance among the affected Saflok management systems, or a corporate move to consolidate multiple resorts onto a single platform. The unpatched-remediation path is disruptive, reissuing every keycard and upgrading encoders, and the theme-park calendar leaves little room to do that work twice. With roughly 2,398 rooms opening in 2025 and Epic Universe adding another 1,500, operators standardizing new builds increasingly want the same Salto stack on their existing doors, including Wallreader and amenity integration. Re-platforming while you're already at every lock is consolidation logic, not a verdict on Ambiance, which remains current-generation hardware.
- Orlando was forecast to open about 13 new hotels with roughly 2,398 rooms in 2025, with construction running ahead of the national pace and led by the International Drive corridor.
- Universal Orlando added roughly 1,500 guest rooms in early 2025 (Stella Nova and Terra Luna resorts) plus the 500-room Universal Helios Grand Hotel opening in May 2025 alongside the Epic Universe park.

What we plan for in Orlando
Disney, Universal, and the convention center corridor keep occupancy high year round, so full floor takedowns are rarely available and cutovers fall to off-peak overnight windows. RevKey sequences the install floor by floor and wing by wing with no closed floors, schedules core hardware swaps and credential cutover during low-traffic overnight blocks, and keeps the front desk able to issue working keys at every step.
Orlando resorts frequently tie room credentials to amenity and attraction-access points, and deep amenity access is standard on the 500-plus-key properties along I-Drive and Lake Buena Vista. RevKey maps every access point including pools, parking, club lounges, and wallreader-controlled entries during scoping, then configures Salto access groups and integrations so one guest credential works consistently across the property.
The dormakaba Ambiance migration, in brief
Ambiance is dormakaba's current access-management platform running Saflok locks. It is named in both the 2024 Unsaflok and the May 2025 Saflok Codebase advisories. Manufacturer-recommended action: confirm remediation, or switch platforms.
Fits most Ambiance door prep on retrofit; the Wide Body trim covers existing cutouts. Full credential stack and brand mobile-key support.

How a Orlando project runs
The same disciplined sequence on every property, scaled to your door count.
Site assessment and door-by-door survey
We walk the property (or review your survey worksheet), confirm door prep and brand requirements, and identify what each opening needs. No guesswork before the quote.
Scope and migration plan
A real scoped quote: hardware, credential plan, PMS integration, and a phased schedule built around your occupancy, not a placeholder estimate.
Phased install
Floor-by-floor cutover coordinated with housekeeping, so rooms stay sellable. No property-wide shutdown.
PMS and mobile-key validation
PMS integration and brand mobile keys configured and tested before guests touch them, so the front desk is live on day one.
Train and support
Front-desk training and a fixed post-install support window so the team is confident before we hand off.
Common questions about dormakaba Ambiance migrations in Orlando
Ambiance is current-generation. Why would I move to Salto?
You may not need to. Ambiance is current and supported, so this is not about end-of-life. It is, though, named in the 2024 Unsaflok and May 2025 Saflok advisories, so the first question is whether your locks, cards, and encoders are fully remediated. If they are and your support is good, staying is a reasonable call. Operators move to Salto when they are consolidating several properties on one stack, when a brand is pushing Salto-specific certifications, when the dealer relationship has not worked, or when they would rather land on a modern platform while every door is already open to remediate.
Can Salto reuse my existing Ambiance door prep?
On most installs, yes. Salto XS4 One is ANSI mortise compatible with Ambiance door prep, so the swap stays at the door. We confirm prep type door by door during scoping.
What does consolidating multiple properties on Salto get me?
One credential platform, one set of integrations, and one accountable installer across the portfolio, instead of a different stack and dealer per property. For multi-property owners standardizing operations, that consolidation is usually the main driver.
Do I have to convert every door at once?
No. We install door by door during normal operating hours, typically thirty to forty doors per day, with a first-door sign-off before mass install. Larger properties run phased over weeks against your access windows.
Will Salto meet my brand mobile-key standard?
Yes. Salto installs to brand mobile-key spec and integrates directly with the major hotel PMS platforms. We validate brand compliance as part of the install.
How long does a Salto install take at a large Orlando resort?
Timelines scale with door count and the number of amenity and access points, not just guestrooms. A branded select-service property is typically a shorter engagement, while a 500-plus-key full-service resort with extensive amenity access runs longer and is staged in phases. Because Orlando properties rarely take rooms fully offline, we plan around your occupancy and theme-park-season calendar from the first scoping visit.
