Classic VingCard is winding down while ASSA ABLOY moves customers toward Vostio. You have a clean platform option, too.
Replace VingCard locks in Honolulu.
RevKey is a Certified Salto Partner and veteran-owned business that plans and installs Salto for VingCard properties in Honolulu, migrating you off VingCard floor by floor without pulling rooms out of inventory.
For a Honolulu resort on Classic VingCard, modernization toward mobile key is the driver, not a vulnerability. ASSA ABLOY is moving the market to its Vostio cloud platform and building newer hardware cloud-first, so Classic VingCard reads as a Vostio-compatible upgrade bridge. With the Renaissance arriving as the first ground-up build since 1990 and Hilton Hawaiian Village adding 515 rooms, high-rise resort key counts and international guest mobile-key expectations raise the stakes on platform choice. Operators can upgrade in-family to Vostio cloud or move to Salto Space, which also supports native Apple Wallet keys; this page is the Salto route.
- The 39-story, 187-room Renaissance Honolulu Hotel & Spa, unveiled in 2025, is the first full-service hotel built from the ground up in Honolulu since 1990.
- Honolulu's Hilton Hawaiian Village received approval for a 36-story Ala Moana Boulevard tower adding about 515 rooms, with construction beginning in 2024.

What we plan for in Honolulu
Waikiki is dense vertical resort hospitality, with many properties running 500 to over 2,000 keys plus heavy amenity, pool deck, and elevator access points. RevKey sequences these installs floor band by floor band and door type by door type so rooming and amenity doors are cut over in controlled groups instead of all at once.
Honolulu's large share of international and frequent-traveler guests raises expectations for brand mobile key and contactless room entry at full-service and luxury properties. RevKey provisions Salto mobile credentialing and validates it against the property's brand app and PMS during the install so digital keys work at handover, not as a later phase.
The VingCard migration, in brief
VingCard line owned by ASSA ABLOY. Classic VingCard hardware is largely legacy; the modern path is ASSA ABLOY's Vostio and Visionline management platforms running current VingCard locks.

How a Honolulu 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 VingCard migrations in Honolulu
Should I move to ASSA ABLOY Vostio or to Salto?
Both are legitimate. Vostio is the in-family upgrade from Classic VingCard and is the easier move if you have a strong ASSA ABLOY relationship and want minimum operational change. Salto tends to be the stronger choice if you value mobile-key depth, broad PMS integration, and a single accountable installer. We are glad to scope either; this page covers the Salto path.
Is my Classic VingCard hardware compatible with a Salto retrofit?
In most cases, yes. Salto XS4 One is ANSI mortise compatible and replaces Classic VingCard hardware at the door without changing the prep. We confirm prep type door by door during scoping.
Do I have to replace 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.
How long does a VingCard migration take?
Scoping plus phased install runs roughly 3 to 5 weeks under 100 doors and 6 to 10 weeks for 100 to 250 doors, with larger properties phased over longer windows. Materials procurement is dated for you when we quote.
What do residents or guests use instead of a keycard?
Modern BLE and NFC mobile credentials, including Apple Wallet, with PIN-pad or physical-card fallback for guests and contractors. One credential system spans guest rooms and amenity access.
How long does a Waikiki high-rise resort conversion take?
Timelines scale with key count and door variety. A large Waikiki resort in the 500 to 2,000-plus key range is run as a phased install over several weeks, with door types and floor bands grouped into controlled cutover waves. We confirm a schedule after a site survey, since vertical access, elevator integration, and amenity doors affect sequencing.
