The Maintenance Keycard opens secured doors and comes before Guest and VIP keycard progression.
PC / Global, final release
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Maintenance A, inside the buried bunker entrance revealed at its marked dig site.
Use the Shovel to expose Maintenance A's entrance, then search the bunker office for the card. The keycard is a permanent progression item and is not the same as the tool gate: you must first acquire the Shovel from its cave route. Keep the card for later secured doors and bunker access.
Maintenance Bunker A: the original player GPS and the opened dig hatch show the entrance together. Bring the Shovel; this is a 2023 entrance reference, not a full-island route.
GET STARTED
How to farm
Before you go
Shovel to excavate the entrance.

Weapon and basic supplies for the bunker route.
Confirm that you have the Shovel before traveling to the Maintenance A dig marker.
At the circular marker, dig until the buried hatch becomes accessible.
Open the hatch and descend into Maintenance A.
Follow the interior corridor toward the office area.
Search the office and collect the Maintenance Keycard.
Keep it in your inventory for compatible secured doors.

Farming tips
The Shovel opens the way into Maintenance A; the keycard is found inside.
Keep this card after pickup because it is a prerequisite for later keycard progression.
Repeat, collect and use
One-time progression pickup; the card is retained for use on multiple secured doors.
Common mistakes
Reaching the dig marker without a Shovel; obtain the tool first.
Searching the surface around the marker for the card; excavate and enter the bunker.
Discarding or overlooking the card after pickup; retain it for subsequent bunker access.
When to stop or switch
Stop searching once the card is collected; continue to a secured door or prepare for the Entertainment Bunker.
