PRCC Keys & Card Access

If you are locked out during normal business hours, contact ECS for assistance. After hours, contact Rutgers University Police Department (RUPD). Access will only be granted to authorized occupants.

If a key is lost, stolen, or damaged, notify ECS immediately.

IMPORTANT: Lost keys require rekeying. Your department is responsible for all rekeying costs.

Replacement keys must be requested by the department head. Keys may not be duplicated.

If your key does not turn, a lock appears damaged, or a card reader is not functioning, contact ECS so the issue can be assessed and coordinated with Facilities as needed. Do not attempt to force doors or manipulate locking mechanisms.

Card access for PRCC offices and secured spaces is managed through ECS.

IMPORTANT: Card access requests must be submitted by your department head.

Requests must include:

• First name
• Last name
• NetID
• Space(s) requiring access
• Access level requested
• Expiration date (if temporary access)

Access is reviewed and assigned based on role, authorization, and space use.

Student organizations with office space or storage in PRCC may be granted access on a per-semester basis. Requests must be submitted through the Office of Student Life & Leadership (OSLL)

• Card access requests must be submitted by the organization’s advisor.
• If a student forgets their RU ID and needs access, OSLL must contact ECS to confirm authorization before entry can be granted.
• Requests for access to student organization storage closets must be made through OSLL.
