DaveInTN 3,247 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 They have been replacing the old KTTW card readers with RFID technology to unlock the doors. When we checked in, we were told we would need our cards to unlock the comfort station doors 24 hrs a day...but that wasn't the case. The hours they were locked remained as they had previously been; just during the night. But it looks like they will at some point be locking them all day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 They are doing the 1500 loop comfort station today. It was a great wake up call this morning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 And while it says it's closed 10 to 5 they start before 89 hours to change three door locks.Sounds like they are using government contractors.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 It looks like part of it is putting in a bunch of conduit tunnels and snaking cables. I don't have wifi here in 1504 today. Maybe tomorrow? It's funny I wrote that before popping back to my site and when I get here all the gear and equip are sitting here but no one to be seen. Any one need some hammers saws or ladders? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SCTigerCock 171 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Just want to give an update on this as of Sunday the 13th. They did get in and run the wiring for the doors. But they didn't change the locks or door handles. The Laundry reader is chipped.In fact the bathrrom doors were unsecured for the remainder of our trip even at night.
