How Access Cards Work

The Card Access System allows occupants of a University residence hall to enter designated doors with an access card. You may use other doors to exit the building, but you may enter the building only through designated doors by using your access card.

Entry doors are equipped with a 30-second time-delay device that allows you to enter or leave the building without an alarm sounding. However, if a door is held open more than 30 seconds or propped open, a local alarm is activated to alert building residents. Simultaneously, the University Police receive an alert at their headquarters.

It's important for all residents of a building to be considerate and cooperative and make sure that doors to the residence hall are closed, not only for the safety and security of all the residents, but so that other residents aren't disturbed by alarms that sound when doors are held or propped open. You may use other doors to exit the building, but you may enter the building only through designated doors by using your access card.


Information for Students Using the Residence Hall Card Access System

No Matter which residence hall you live in at Clemson University , it's your "home away from home." To help you enjoy your new home even more, Clemson University 's Card Access System provides you with a secure living environment. This sophisticated, state-of-the-art entry system helps keep you safe while allowing you the freedom and convenience you enjoy.


How to Use Your Access Card

The Card Access System is easy to use. Simply pass your card in front of the red light (from right to left) located at each proximity reader entrance sign (green and white with oak trim), and the light will change to green. At the same time, you will hear a click of the lock mechanism, which enables you to turn the entrance door handle and open the door. You may then enter the building. As the door shuts and locks, the system resets automatically.
