Airport Security Gates
Oakland County International Airport
Automatic gates require a gate access card for enry into secured areas of the Airport. Airport tenants requiring access to the T-Hangar area must use an airport-issued gate access card. Gate access cards are issued by the Airport Administrative staff at the OCIA terminal between 9am and 4pm, Monday through Friday (excluding holidays). The following items are required for issuance of a gate access card.
Persons who have not provided a signed copy of their lease will be asked to sign at the time of application.
A copy of your current FAA Aircraft Registration (AC Form 8050-1) is required to receive a gate access card.
Basic aircraft liability policies include or have an endorsement for premises liability (to cover t-hangars & tie-downs). Most of the policies have $1 million limit of liability. If your aircraft is not airworthy, contact the administration office.
Persons sharing an aircraft should have a document stating that the aircraft costs are shared and indicate the respective percentage of investment in the partnership (totaling 100%). Cards will be provided to registered lease holders only. Tenants who have not previously provided copies of partnership agreements will not be able to verbally confirm partnerships. Upon presentation of appropriate documentation, identification and signing of the Access Card Agreement, additional cards for partners, spouses or additional family members may be purchased.
An Access Card Agreement must be signed and initialed by the tenant in order to be issued a gate access card.
Information update form must be completed to be issued a gate access card. It is the responsibility of the tenant to keep up-to-date contact information on file with Airport Administration in the event of an emergency.
Completed information can be emailed to ocia@oakgov.com or sent via U.S. Mail. Providing the proper account name and/or T-hangar number will help us to verify your information.
