Access Control
Telephone: (973) 655-5444

The distribution and assignment of keys and/or electronic key cards is a responsibility of the Access Control unit. Requests for keys and/or electronic key cards shall be processed by the individual department heads through the computerized work order system, know as The Maintenance Authority (TMA) at http://maintenancesrv.montclair.edu/home.html or call Access Control at ext. 5444 for further information.

There is no deposit required for the first keys and/or electronic key cards issued. All other keys (including replacements) will cost $3.00 each with a limit of three (3) keys and/or electronic key cards per lock. Special arrangements beyond three (3) keys and/or electronic key cards require additional funding from the requesting department. Keys and/or electronic key cards must be returned to Access Control upon termination of employment.

In the event that a building is locked on weekends, in the evening, and Civil Service holidays, faculty members may gain entrance by reporting to the Campus Police dispatcher.  During periods when the University is officially closed, access will not be permitted.  Academic buildings will not be open for use by students unless a faculty member remains present in the building.
