How to use your KentOne card

How can I add building/room access to my card?

All KentOne cards automatically have access to the Templeman Library.

If you want to gain access to a specific cycle shelter on campus you'll need to visit Campus Security in the Security and Transport Centre to arrange this for you.    

Staff: Certain staff buildings/rooms require permission for you to gain access. If you are trying to use your KentOne card to access a restricted area you'll need first get the access/ permission granted to your card. This will need to be requested from you/your department to Estates via the online 'Building Access Request'

Depending on what access is required some office door access can be added in the college reception following confirmation from your department. 

Students: You shouldn't need any other room access added to your card, as if you are a resident on campus you'll be able to access your accommodation using your fob. If you need to request permission to access a building with your KentOne card, or your KentOne card is not working, you can contact the University Operations team at uniops@kent.ac.uk
