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.
