=== Adding membership card remotely ===
A card can be linked to a membership account remotely, without going into the Hackspace. It's convenient for first-time access or in case you forget your card at home. Any of the cards listed in the section [[Help:Door_control_system#Cards that are known to work well|Cards that are known to work well]] should work. All you need is an NFC card reader, such as an Android phone.
Step by step guide:
1. Download an app for reading NFC information, such as [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nxp.taginfolite&hl=en_GB&gl=US NFC TagInfo by NXP].
2. Open the app and go to 'Full Scan' tab.
3. Tap your card of choice on the back of the phone until a scan is complete.
4. Go back to 'full scan' tab and under detail protocol information section, find the ID reference and copy it.

5. Go to [https://london.hackspace.org.uk/members/addcard.php Add card section] on LHS website. To navigate to it go to Access -> Access Cards -> add a card by RFID unique id.
6. Paste the ID reference into the field, remove all the semicolons and click add.
