Neo Mortise ANSIImage: SALTO Systems

The mortise variant of Salto Neo. While Neo's more common configuration is the cylinder-in-place retrofit (replacing the cylinder inside existing mechanical hardware), the mortise variant ships when the install needs a full Neo lock body rather than a cylinder swap. Used in new construction multifamily and commercial buildings where Neo is the spec, or in retrofits where the existing mortise body cannot accept a Neo cylinder.

Where this model fits

  • New construction multifamily with Neo as the spec line
  • Commercial offices and tenant doors
  • Retrofit cases where cylinder-only swap is not viable

Parent product line

Neo Mortise ANSI is a configuration of the Neo product line. See the parent line page for the full credential stack, PMS integration list, and brand-standard notes that apply across every Neo 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.

Where Neo Mortise ANSI fits, and where it doesn’t

EnvironmentIndoor / outdoor (IP66 (outdoor version))
Form factorCylinder (in-place retrofit)
Battery4x LR1 alkaline, ~130,000 openings per set 1-2 years typical; up to 130,000 openings per battery set.
Durability gradeCylinder retrofit: mechanical durability is governed by the host lockset, not the cylinder.
Ideal trafficModerate traffic Because Neo replaces only the cylinder inside the existing mechanical hardware, its mechanical wear profile follows the host lock body it sits in.

Best for

  • Multifamily and office retrofits where door prep cannot change
  • Occupied units, historic buildings, and custom millwork (no drilling or prep change)
  • Outdoor gates and perimeter doors (IP66 outdoor version)
  • Bringing perimeter, amenity, and unit access under one credential

Not ideal for

  • Branded hospitality guest doors needing the deepest PMS and mobile-key support (XS4 One)
  • New construction where a full electronic lock body is preferred
  • Doors where Apple Wallet keying is a hard requirement (firmware-dependent on Neo)
