The daily opening hours for classrooms at Arts on weekdays are from 7:30 AM to 6 PM. 


How to order a key card

Ordering a key card for: 
Staff in Aarhus
Staff in Emdrup
Trøjborgvej 82-84

To order a key card you need your AU ID and a photo (JPG file). Once the card has been ordered, you will receive an email with the card number and pin code. Then you need to activate your card. 

Please note that if you re-print existing cards, the old card will be deleted immediately.

Ordering key cards for people outside AU

It is possible to order key cards for people outside AU who need access to a department or room outside normal opening hours. Access is granted for no more than 12 months at a time.

These key cards should be ordered from Building Services, who will need the following information: 

  • Name and name of company
  • Phone no.
  • Photo
  • Period (start and end)
  • Objective/purpose
  • Which buildings and doors do you want to access

Loan card/temporary access outside of opening hours

If you need short-term access outside regular opening hours, please contact your department’s secretariat.The secretariat has loan cards that the secretaries can activate for temporary access via Operations.

Loan cards may be used for a maximum of 3 months. If access is needed for a longer or recurring period, the person must be registered as an unpaid affiliate and issued a standard AU access card. This way, the card will automatically be deactivated upon termination. Registration is handled through your institute or department.

PIN codes for access cards can be created at pinkode.au.dk

Note: To avoid unnecessary card waste, it is very important that loan cards are returned to the secretariat after use.

For questions regarding access cards, please contact the operations coordinator Ingor Haugaard Skov.

Activating/reactivating key cards

Once you have received an email informing you that your key card has been produced, it can be activated. Activating key cards:

  • Staff at schools in Aarhus and Emdrup should contact their department secretariat.
  • Library staff should contact the library managers, who will contact the Building Operations and Maintenance Office in Aarhus or Emdrup. 
  • ACA employees should contact stab.byg.aca@au.dk (with the exception of ACA employees in Studies Administration, who should contact stab.studier.arts@au.dk)
  • Staff at Trøjborgvej 82-84 should contact the department secretariat. 

Please note that if you re-print existing cards, your old card will be deleted immediately.

Pincodes

  • A PIN code will be sent to the cardholder when cards are ordered/reordered.
