What will happen?​

The old card reader will be removed and replaced with a new ​unit. While the work is carried out access through doors will be​ maintained.​

Do I need to do anything?​

If you have an older issue blue Warwick ID card you should get a ​replacement to ensure it will work with the new system. ​

You can do this by visiting Senate House or University House reception to replace your card from Monday to Friday between 9:30 am and 4:30 pm.​

Once the new readers are installed the first time you use your ​card please hold it on the reader for 15-20 seconds until the light stops flashing blue so it is registered on the system after which access should operate as normal.​

Will I still have access?​

The access you had on the old system will in most cases be carried over to the new system. If you feel you should have access to a certain area that you now do not have please email Cardoffice@warwick.ac.uk and explain where the issue is.​
