Keys and swipe cards

Access card, swipe card and Key

The Office of Facilities Management and Services is responsible for structure, security and coordination matters concerning keys and swipe cards. The administrative work is carried out by different actors at Linnaeus University.

Keys to the university are ordered via the security coordinator at the Office of Facilities Management and Services. Your nearest manager fills out the order form (only in Swedish) or sends an email to sakerhet@lnu.se.

Swipe cards can be ordered on your own via the self-service portal for swipe cards: https://lnukortet.lnu.se/. Your swipe card can be used in all the university’s facilities and is also used for the copying machines, printers, and as your library card.

The security coordinators at the university are responsible for security matters and swipe cards/keys. You find their contact information at the bottom of this page.
