Salto Design XS Reader.
The Design XS wall reader is the standard surface-mount reader for amenity and common-area access: pool and fitness gates, elevators, parking, mail rooms, and meeting spaces. It reads the same Salto credential stack as your room and unit locks, so one guest, resident, or staff credential covers every reader on the property. Online control runs through Salto Space (BLUEnet) on-site or Homelok in the cloud.
Where this model fits
- Resort and hotel amenity access (pool, fitness, business center)
- Multifamily common areas (gym, lounge, mail room, parking)
- Elevator and restricted-floor access control
- Meeting rooms and conference spaces
Parent product line
Design XS Reader is a configuration of the Salto Wall Reader product line. See the parent line page for the full credential stack, PMS integration list, and brand-standard notes that apply across every Salto Wall Reader configuration.
How this model is configured
Every Salto lock is composed to your doors during scoping: finish, mortise and function type, credential technology (BLE, NFC, RFID, with mag-stripe or PIN fallback where needed), and handing. RevKey confirms each selection at the site survey and configures the final composed part number with you, so the lock that ships matches your door prep and brand standard.
