Your building is equipped with an access control system monitored by Kastle Systems. The main entrance doors, located on 1700 Pennsylvania Avenue, are locked from 6:00 PM to 7:00 AM Monday through Friday and 24 hours on weekends and holidays. Your employees may gain access to the building during secure hours with their Kastle keycards.
Once you are inside the elevator you must use your Kastle key in order to proceed to your floor. Press your cardkey against the card reader. Do this until the red light on the reader turns green, then press the elevator button to your floor until it lights and the elevator will take you to your floor. When traveling to the main lobby or to the garage levels it is not necessary to use your Kastle keycard.
Kastle Keycards
A limited amount of Kastle keycards are issued to your suite prior to your move-in. Additional cards should be ordered directly from Kastle Systems using the Kastle order form. It is very important that you keep track of those cards that are authorized for new employees and revoke any cards that are lost. Authorization and/or revocation of keys is performed by Kastle Systems. Contact Kastle Systems at 703.24711 or kastle-dc-team1@kastle.com for authorization and revocation of keys.
