Keys

The Key Department will come out to WPR on a Tuesday or a Thursday to hand out keys after our locks are installed. They’ll give us 48 to 72 hours’ notice before the day of distribution. You can hang on to your UTA key(s) until then to turn over to them, or turn your UTA key(s) in to the Key Office as soon as we leave UTA.

Warning
"Important: Pursuant to The University of Texas at Austin security policies, only the key holder may sign for and receive the requested keys. No other staff member, administrative assistant, receptionist, etc., may sign for or receive keys on behalf of someone else." --Lock & Key shop memo to PRC occupants, June 20, 2017

Parking Permits

If you have a Guadalupe Garage permit, you can trade it in for the less-expensive A permit at a staffed garage.  Here’s a list of the staffed garages. (Trinity Garage recommended.)

UT ID Cards Proximity Authorization

Amy De La Rosa is our BACS administrator. (BACS stands for Building Access Control System—that’s what your UT ID card is coded through.)

Tip
Hot tip:

CTR has badge holders with retractable cords, which will be handy for badging in and out of the building each day. Let us know if you’d like one. Or you can come up with your own system to keep your ID card at hand—just don’t punch a hole in it. The UT ID cards contain a thin wire that must remain intact for the cards to work on the BACS readers. (BACS stands for Building Access Control System—that’s what your UT ID card is coded through.)

Building / Door Security

Note
You need your UT ID card to both enter AND exit the card-access doors.
  • The ground floor has three revolving doors set to require card access at all times; only the south side has sliding glass doors. The sliding doors don’t require ID to enter/exit during normal business hours, which is handy, as those doors are closest to the visitor parking lot. 
  • One ADA swing door is available; it is on the north side and does not require ID access during normal business hours.
  • All revolving doors and the ADA door are card-accessible during non-business hours—as long as your UT ID card is activated for WPR building access.
  • We received these tips from the WPR building manager:
