Spacebring supports five major access control integrations: Kisi, Brivo, Salto KS, Avigilon Alta, and Tapkey. Additionally, some access control solution providers develop and maintain their own integrations with Spacebring, such as Luckey.
When choosing an access control provider, consider how the integration will work for your members' experience and your daily administration.

Main difference
Access is granted and revoked automatically across all Spacebring-developed integrations in the same manner:
When a user has an active booking or subscription, they are automatically synced to the access control system and added to the appropriate access group to receive access.
When their booking or subscription ends, they are automatically removed from the access group to revoke access.
The main difference between integrations is whether users unlock doors directly from the Spacebring's member mobile app or web portal, or use an external method.
Unlocking within Spacebring
Supported for: Kisi, Brivo, Salto KS
With these integrations, your customers can unlock doors directly from the Spacebring interface.
User unlock doors from your Spacebring's member app or web portal:
Kisi and Brivo integrations — from the Access page.
Salto KS integration — using the Unlock button.
No additional apps or invitations are required.
Unlocking outside Spacebring
Supported for: Avigilon Alta, Tapkey, Luckey
With these integrations, unlocking happens outside of Spacebring, using the methods provided by the access control solution.
Users get a booking or subscription in your Spacebring's member app or web portal.
Spacebring automatically syncs the user and grants them access.
Users unlock doors via the provided unlocking method. Each provider offers their own range of unlocking options, such as their native mobile app, Apple Wallet, physical cards, keychain tokens, etc.
The most common unlocking method is via the provider's mobile app. Once synced from Spacebring for the first time, Avigilon Alta and Luckey send the user an automated email invitation to install their app to unlock doors.
