Student Accommodation<br />

Multiple Student Accommodation operators<br />

Over recent times, the construction of student accommodation blocks has increased<br />

dramatically, a direct impact of the growing demand for university places.<br />

Traditionally, students were given a mechanical metal key to access their cluster and<br />

flat, however with the large loss rate of keys this was costly and time consuming.<br />

Consequently, access control systems are now specified throughout student<br />

accommodation estates, allowing for instant cancellation and re-creation of lost key<br />

cards or fobs.<br />

Typically, a single key card would be used to operate a multitude of doors, such as<br />

the front entrance, cycle store, gym, bin store, common room and then<br />

ultimately the specific cluster and flat of the student. Student access<br />

is often time restricted on communal doors such as the gym. For<br />

example, the key card may only open this door between<br />

8am and 8pm.<br />

Doors can also be set to remain open until<br />

a key card is presented a second time.<br />

A useful application of this feature<br />

would be, for example, the door<br />

of a flat which shares a<br />

kitchen with others,<br />

reducing the<br />

risk of lockouts.
