When you move into a property under the A scheme, you will be given the keys to a normally refurbished property including the necessary painting of walls and ceilings. However, you will be partially responsible for maintenance while you are living in the property. If any issues or damage occur along the way, it is crucial to contact DIK as soon as possible.
When moving out, the costs for normal refurbishment are shared between the person moving out and the student accommodation, depending on the length of stay. Paint costs are amortised over 4 years, resulting in lower costs the longer you live here.
Holes in walls caused by nails and screws, especially with extensive installations such as TVs or shelving, are considered the responsibility of the tenant. Lack of ventilation and cleaning is also considered the tenant’s responsibility, and the landlord will carry out normal repairs upon vacating, including painting walls, ceilings and woodwork.
The refurbishment is depreciated over 4 years, which means that the costs are divided as a percentage between tenant and landlord depending on the length of stay. Responsibility for maintenance ensures that the unit is maintained without unnecessary deterioration, except for normal wear and tear.
Waste must be sorted into eight categories – residual waste, food waste, glass, plastic/food and drink cartons, cardboard, paper, metal and textiles. It is the residents’ own responsibility to empty all categories from the kitchens into the larger underground containers, which are located in three locations towards the railway line.
If your shower drain is blocked, you’ll need to clean it yourself. You can find a guide here.
Drain in the sink: If your sink drain is blocked, always contact the office by email: dik@kollegierneskontor.dk and we will come and clean it.
There is a resident council that works on a voluntary basis and is elected by the residents. You pay toward the resident council every month. The resident council holds regular meetings where you can make your voice heard and make suggestions for purchases and improvements to the student hall. You can read more about it here.
If you need to contact the resident council, send them an email: Dik.albertslund.council@gmail.com
The residents themselves are responsible for organising cleaning in the blocks. The resident council has provided vacuum cleaners for all blocks. All residents are responsible for vacuuming in front of their own door and the nearest staircase. New vacuum bags can be picked up at the property manager’s office during office hours.
Do not place items in the corridors such as sofas, tables, beds or other furniture with flammable material as the corridors are fire escape routes and must be kept passable. Common areas must also be kept free of laundry, drying racks, etc., or other flammable items. Hallways and common areas must also be vacuumed regularly by all residents.
Bikes must be left in the bike racks outside. Bike racks are located by the kitchens at the end of the blocks and between the blocks.
If you have a Danish phone number, you can have it linked to the door phone. If the door phone rings, the call is forwarded to your mobile phone. Send your room number and phone number to dik@kollegierneskontor.dk to register.
It is not allowed to have a fridge, kettle or other power-consuming items in the room, as the electrical installations cannot handle it. This does not apply to two-bedroom flats that have their own electrical panel.
Please note that all room residents are to use the facilities in the communal kitchens.
The student hall has a shared Facebook group, which we recommend joining and leaving the group when you move.

There is also a Facebook group for each block. You can find the link on the notice board in the communal kitchens. The property manager will post under this name, but will not respond to this media. Instead, you can send an email or view the property manager’s post here.
In the unlikely event that there is something to report, you must always fill out the link to the defect list and submit it with photos within 14 days of moving in.
There is a gym in the building by the property manager’s office. The gym may only be used by residents of the student hall. Visitors and children are not allowed.
According to the Danish fire authorities, it is not allowed to have anything on ledges in common areas or corridors, as these are considered escape routes. It is very important to comply with this regulation.
It’s always a good idea to take out home contents insurance. And it’s your responsibility to do so.
Termination of the lease is done on the KKIK website.
The room/flat must be emptied and cleaned. Clean the fridge and freezer drawer and vacuum in front of your door and the nearest staircase. Do not leave anything in the corridor or common areas. If you want to give something away, agree in advance who gets it or who throws it away after a short period of time. Furniture, etc., that you are not taking with you can be left at the container islands. You will need to carry it yourself to the islands behind the blocks by the railway.
You are only allowed to sublet your room/flat if it is because you are taking a semester abroad or are so far away that you cannot commute. This must be documented and then approved by KKIK. Send an email to administrator Janne Høegh at jh@kollegierneskontor.dk.
Subletting for less than 3 months will not be approved. Subletting without authorisation from KKIK will result in termination of the lease.
The residents themselves are responsible for cleaning the communal kitchens. Individuals are responsible for cleaning up after cooking. Wipe down the cooker, sink and worktops and dispose of waste in the respective bins.
Pouring cooking grease/oil into the sink is strictly forbidden. If it can be proven which resident is pouring grease/oil down the sink, all sewerage service costs will be charged to the resident and they will receive a warning for non-compliance.
You can have one overnight guest over a weekend (Fri-Sun), but not on weekdays. You can have one overnight guest – no visiting parents or multiple friends at the same time.
Guests are not allowed in the student accommodation unless the tenant is at home.
Guests are not allowed to be alone in a communal kitchen.
