building access

Permission to enter

Building access refers to the ability or authorization to enter a structure.

It encompasses both physical means—keys, keycards, codes, biometric scanners—and the permissions governing who may enter: Employees have building access after hours.

Security systems control building access to restrict entry to authorized personnel.

The term appears frequently in workplace policies and property management contexts.
