Building Hours
All Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering buildings are open Monday-Friday. The hours of each building can vary in order to accommodate classroom access. The exterior building doors will be electronically locked after the final class has finished for the day.
All college buildings will remain closed during the weekends and on all major holidays.
Requesting Keys for Rooms
Room keys may be requested to gain access to office and/or lab space throughout the college. All keys for college administrative spaces can be requested by submitting a service request to Facilities Operations.
Electronic Door Access
Authorized faculty, staff, and students can gain after-hours access to the buildings using electronic card readers. After-hours building access can be requested by submitting a service request to Facilities Operations.
Installing Electronic Door Access
The University of Florida standard for electronic door access is currently the Lenel System. The college Facility Operations project management staff can assist you through the installation process. Each project requires a scope of work developed by UF – Physical Security. Our staff will then retain quotes from qualified vendors according to the requirements outlined in the scope of work. The cost of a system can vary greatly from project to project. The differences in cost are related to the amount and capacity of existing Lenel equipment in a building. Some buildings may already have existing hardware that can support additional door controls; however, some buildings will need additional hardware installed to support new doors.
