Keys
All doors and elevators are operated with your keys, and only the other tenants on your floor can enter your corridor. You will receive one key which gives you access to everything in Tensta, from your door to the elevator, laundry, recycling, etc. Sometimes you use it as a regular key and sometimes you hold it up to a panel. In order to lock your front door, you will need to pull up on the handle first. If you lose your key, you will be charged 4000 SEK.
To open your mailbox, hold the key (without moving it) on the black panel closest to your mailbox and it should pop open. If you are having trouble with your electronic key, you will need to put it in the hotspot located in the entryway to re-program it.
Bike storage and basement storage
There is a separate entrance to get into the bike storage, located in the basement. You will have a small storage cage in the basement. Please find your storage marked with your apartment number on it. You will need to provide your own padlock.
