Secure Building Access

Your staff card does not automatically grant access to secure buildings on campus. Access to these buildings is authorised by the relevant faculty or administrative unit.

A requisition, authorised by your Head of Department and specifying your required building access, should be taken with your new Staff Card to Security Services, Level 2, Services Building, between the hours of 8.00am – 5.00pm Monday to Friday.

Security Services
Level 2
Services Building (G12)
Codrington St (cnr Abercrombie St)
Darlington Campus

The relevant access will then be added to your card.

Proximity Cards

The majority of buildings on campus use a swipe card which requires the card to be swiped through the security card reader at the door.

Some buildings eg The School of Information Technologies, use proximity cards which require the card to be waved in front of a sensor at the door. Please check which type of card you need before applying for your Staff Card.

For full details please see Security Services website.
