Replacement access gates Universum
Starting Monday 9 November, the access gates at USC Universum will be replaced. Check what impact this will have on your visit.
Download the app!
Don’t have it yet? Download the My USC Amsterdam app now (Android and iOS). With this app, when the gates are being replaced, you scan the QR code in the room where you’re working out, instead of checking in at the gate. Once the gates have been replaced, it will no longer be possible to check in using your fingerscan, so you’ll keep needing the app.
Why are the gates being replaced?
The current gates are over 15 years old and no longer meet technical standards. That is why they are being replaced. This also means that all sorts of cabling in the floors will need to be replaced.
When will the gates be replaced?
On Monday 9 November, we will start removing the current gates. The new gates will be ready for use by Friday 18 December at the latest. In the meantime, you may experience some disruption during your visit to Universum:
- At certain times – during the day only – we use an alternative entrance via the emergency doors by the climbing gym.
- You may occasionally have to take a different route through our building to get to your sports area.
- There is some noise from drilling, sanding and that sort of thing.
