Key & Lock Policy
OFFICE KEYS & LOCKS
All keys in the Building are included in a Building Master Key System. This key system is necessary so that the building staff has access to all areas in the event of an emergency. For this reason, we require that tenants do not alter existing locks or affix additional locks on doors within your suite. Tenants are not permitted to purchase duplicate keys from any source other than the Management Office. Duplicate door key, installation of replacement, or additional lock mechanisms and key cylinders are available upon Tenant’s written request, through the Management Office or Building Engines.
All keys must be returned to the Management Office upon move-out.
TENANT ACCESS CARDS
To request security access cards, please contact the Management Office. A card will be assigned and activated for your specific floor(s). Lost or stolen access cards should be reported immediately to the Management Office.
When an employee is terminated from the tenant’s employment, his/her access card should be collected and deactivated. It is the tenant’s responsibility to collect the keys and cards of all terminated employees in order to maintain the security of the suite. If replacement locks are needed because keys have not been collected from the individual(s) who have left the tenant’s company, the tenant will be charged for this service.
Please note that freight elevator access cards are programmed and controlled by the Management Office. One freight elevator card will be issued for each floor of occupancy.
