Aeion Hospitality + Digital Door Locks
Aeion's digital-key system integrates with major door-lock vendors — Salto, ASSA ABLOY, and dormakaba. Multi-protocol (BLE / NFC / QR / PIN) with AES-256-GCM encryption, per-property key cache, remote revocation. If a lock can't be reached, Aeion tells you plainly rather than pretending it worked.

Multi-Protocol Key Mechanics
Issuing a key (at check-in): you choose which protocols to issue — BLE, NFC, QR, PIN, or any subset — along with the validity window and how many uses are allowed.
Built to Work With Any Lock Vendor
Aeion supports many lock vendors through a common integration layer, so switching vendors later is a configuration change, not a system migration — your hardware investment is preserved even if you change brands.

FAQ
Use existing. Aeion supports the major lock vendors out of the box; new vendors added on demand. Hardware investment is preserved.
Two options: (1) Sponsor a custom integration via Enterprise contract (1-2 weeks typically); (2) Use Aeion's PIN/QR-only mode without vendor integration (works for any lock with keypad/QR scanner).
Supported vendors offer mobile-wallet keys; Aeion coordinates wallet provisioning through the vendor's mobile SDK.
Some Salto and ASSA ABLOY locks support offline mode. Aeion pre-provisions keys with embedded validity period; lock validates locally. Online sync resumes when network returns.
Varies by vendor + lock model. Typical: $200-500 per lock for mobile-capable; $50-150 for keypad-only. Aeion doesn't sell hardware; you buy from vendor.

Aeion's digital-key system is vendor-agnostic; switching vendors is a configuration change, not a system migration. Future-proofs against vendor sunset or M&A.
Per-property single vendor typical; multi-vendor supported via multiple vendor connections configured per zone or floor.
Supported via separate keys for common areas. Guest's key may include common-area grants in addition to room.
