PIP and mobile-key cycles
Brand property-improvement plans and mobile-key expectations put access control on a deadline. We ship pre-configured to your program so the upgrade lands on time.
Brand mobile-key deadlines, aging keycard hardware, and tight occupancy windows in Honolulu.
Salto access control for Honolulu hotels.
RevKey is a Certified Salto Partner and veteran-owned business that plans and installs Salto in Honolulu, migrating off Onity, Saflok, and VingCard and meeting your brand's mobile-key standard, floor by floor, without pulling rooms out of inventory.

Why Honolulu properties move now
Aging Onity, Saflok, VingCard
Older keycard fleets are winding down, with security notices active across the incumbents. Migrating now beats scrambling when parts and service dry up.
Phased, not shut down
We cut over floor by floor on overnight shifts, so Honolulu rooms stay in inventory through the project.
What we plan for in Honolulu
The local conditions that actually change how a Honolulu access-control project is scoped and sequenced.
Salt-air corrosion drives hardware choice
Waikiki's marine environment aggressively corrodes lock internals, contacts, and battery terminals, so legacy keycard hardware in Honolulu typically fails sooner than comparable mainland stock. RevKey specifies Salto trim and finishes rated for coastal exposure, seals battery compartments, and stages spares for the salt-exposed elevations during the install rather than after first failures appear.
High-rise resort key counts
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.
Mainland crew deployment logistics
Because RevKey deploys a dedicated crew to the property from out of market, inter-island and trans-Pacific shipping plus staff travel add lead time that mainland jobs do not carry. We confirm hardware delivery to the island and stage it on site before the crew arrives so installation time is spent installing, not waiting on freight.
International guest mobile-key expectations
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.
Common migrations in Honolulu
Saflok and older keycard hardware both deployed. Several recent builds on Salto.
Each migration page covers your options, timeline ranges, and scoping considerations.
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 on overnight shifts 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.

We spec the right line per door type. Open any for full specs and use cases.
Common questions about Honolulu installs
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.
Will floors or the property have to close during installation?
No. RevKey installs in phases so occupied floors and revenue areas stay open while we cut over a defined group of doors at a time. We coordinate the sequence around your occupancy and amenity schedules to avoid closing rooming floors or pool deck and amenity access.
We are on Saflok or other legacy keycard hardware. How does migration work?
We migrate properties off legacy systems including Saflok, Onity, VingCard, and dormakaba onto Salto without running two systems indefinitely. Doors move to Salto in grouped waves, credentials are reissued as each group cuts over, and the legacy system is retired once the final group is live. In Honolulu the corrosion-driven condition of older hardware is one reason replacement, rather than patching, is usually the right call.
Does Salto support our brand's mobile key requirement?
Yes. Salto supports mobile and contactless credentials, and RevKey provisions and tests mobile key against your brand app and PMS as part of the install. Given Honolulu's international guest mix, we validate digital room entry before handover so it is working on day one.
