Building access during winter break

Dec. 12, 2025

All UAF buildings will be locked during the winter hard closure Dec. 25 through Jan. 4. Requests for new card access and unlock service by the UAF Police Department will also be unavailable during this time period. Students or employees who need access to buildings during the break should do the following:

  • If you already have card and/or key access to a building or office, you don鈥檛 need to do anything. You will still be able to access those spaces during the break.
  • If you don鈥檛 already have card or key access to a building or office:
    • Contact the person who approves key and card access for your department, also known as the access-approving authority.
    • Provide your UA ID number and the spaces you need access to. 

Access-approving authorities will then submit that information via email to uaf-fs-keyshop@alaska.edu and uaf-security-configs@alaska.edu.

Normal building unlock schedules will resume on Monday, Jan. 5, 2026.

Questions should be directed to Facilities Services Key Issue/Access Control at uaf-fs-keyshop@alaska.edu or 907-474-6778.
