Salto has launched the outdoor-ready version of the Salto Ælement Fusion smart locking solution. This new offering expands Salto's electronic access portfolio to include exterior doors and challenging weather conditions. 

Designed for premium residential properties and the hospitality sector, this next-generation access control solution completely removes traditional lock hardware from the door face. By integrating all electronic components, battery packs, and internal boards within the door, Ælement Fusion enables property operators to maintain a clean, unified design from interior suites to exterior areas, guest rooms, apartments, and common spaces – all without sacrificing security, compromising weather resistance, or downgrading the user experience.

Invisible design meets smart access

This new, outdoor-ready range addresses a key challenge in premium architecture: delivering secure, keyless access without the bulky hardware that disrupts aesthetics, particularly for exterior applications. 
Ælement Fusion features a compact, flush-mounted circular reader ring compatible with smart credentials and digital mobile keys, including Wallet keys. Additionally, its minimalist design relocates core electronics inside the door, preserving the sleek reader construction while protecting sensitive components from environmental exposure for maximum durability. Specially designed climate gaskets seal against rain, humidity, and extreme temperatures, making Ælement Fusion a class-leading exterior solution.

With this launch, Salto has bridged the gap between climate engineering and seamless design. Property operators no longer need to choose between architectural aesthetics and the hardiness required for exterior spaces. By concealing operational technology within the door and enhancing the user experience with an interactive light ring, we deliver uncompromising security that also withstands the elements.

Engineered for seamless integration, complete security, and a smooth keyless experience

Ælement Fusion boasts several significant engineering advancements designed to enhance outdoor use while incorporating industry-leading gasket protection. The result is a reliable smart-locking solution that performs optimally, even in the most challenging outdoor environments.

Key features include:

·       A compact, sleek reader with no lock hardware on the door itself, delivering a cutting-edge, minimalist solution.

·       A clean, interactive circular light ring, available in four premium finishes – Satin Steel, Matte Black, White, and Polished Brass – to suit any architectural aesthetic and blend naturally with materials such as timber, marble, or glass. 

·       A variety of door handles and finishes to complement any door style.

·       EU and ANSI versions specially designed to fit on standard-profile doors.

·       IP55 certification, ensuring reliable protection against dust and water ingress in outdoor environments.

The Ælement Fusion smart locking range also integrates seamlessly with Salto’s extensive smart access ecosystem, supporting real-time wireless technology, automated access management, and mobile-first keyless experiences. 

The new Ælement Fusion is available globally from this month. Detailed technical specifications and customizable finish options are available at saltosystems.com.
