Lobby Services

Aalto University Lobby Services provides guidance and other services to employees and visitors of Aalto facilities, while helping to maintain the general safety and security of campus facilities. You can recognise Lobby Service staff by the red workshirts and hoodies they wear with the Aalto University logo or the uniforms they wear with the Securitas logo. They can be reached at the reception desk by building main entrances, or if temporarily away, by calling the number indicated at the reception desk.
