Campus Safety and Security Testing Building’s Door Locks

Published: February 2, 2023

Throughout the month of February, College of Western Idaho (CWI) Campus Safety and Security will test campus building’s electronic door-locking systems on Friday afternoons.  This will affect entrance doors to buildings and internal doors with card access locks, primarily lab rooms.

Security will lock down a different set of buildings each week and manually check to be sure the locks are functioning properly. During this time, people will be able to exit buildings and electronic keyed interior doors but will not be able to re-enter them until we are done testing the system. The process should take less than 30 minutes per site. 

Classes and college business will be able to continue as normal as there will only be a short inconvenience on entry into buildings.

Testing dates and times

CWI Campus Safety and Security will post notices on the entry doors of the buildings being tested on the days of the events with the time as a reminder.
