Alterations and changes to Doors are managed by IT and Property.
- IT for Staff Accessed spaces including most of the CTP
- Property for Tennant related spaces including workshops.
Access changes fit into one of the three paths::
- Calendar Actions are used for tempoary changes to security building access for things such as Open Day, Pizza and Pixels, and other variouse Events.
- They overwrite Day to Day Schedules.
- Since Calendar Actions overwrite the Day to Day Schedules you will need to keep the existing Schedule in mind for the start and end times.
- Event Organisers will still need to contact security in regards to Alarms and After Hours Access.
- Day to Day Schedules are used for the general security schedules.
- Holiday Groups are only used for State and National Holidays, this should ideally be checked and updated Yearly.
- They overwrite Day to Day Schedules and Calendar Actions.
- For Extended hours, Compare existing schedules first:
- Sites > Schedules
- Locate the Controller and check the Active Hours Periods for the scheduled day.
- Make a note of it since you will need to use those times with the additonal wanted hours from the request.
- Setup the Calendar Action:
- Sites > Calendar Actions
- Confirm a Calendar Action hasn't been setup for the same event.
