Building Access

The opening and closing times of buildings on this webpage are standard as per operational requirements. Please note that where buildings are unoccupied they may be closed earlier for security purposes, particularly in the summer months.

Staff wishing to access a building out of normal working hours should contact the security team by email: securityteam@wlv.ac.uk to make this request. Please be aware that not all buildings are set up for out-of-hours working, however, we will always do our best to accommodate any requests.

We encourage staff and students working on campus to download the SafeZone app, which allows you to contact the Security team wherever and whenever you're on campus.
