Riven Tides Secure Storage Keycard Location in Arc Raiders

The Riven Tides Secure Storage Keycard location in Arc Raiders: the epic door inside Classified Records at the Port Authority, and what is not documented.

Short answer

Where to find it and where to use it

Where the card drops. No fixed spawn, same as every key, but epic rarity shows. It is the rarest and least commonly reported key on Riven Tides. It comes from the shared loot pool, skewing toward security and higher tier containers, and it can be pulled off another raider who got luckier than you. No drop rate exists for it. Safe Pocket it the second it appears.

It was added in patch 1.26.0, the same update that shipped Riven Tides itself.

Where the door is. Port Authority Building, on the northern side of the map at the harbour, on the top floor. One route reported by players: enter via the ladder on the east side, through the door at the top, then take the left staircase upward. At the top of that staircase are the two heavy doors into Classified Records.

That is where this key gets unusual. Secure Storage is a locked room inside a locked room. The entrance is not on a corridor. It is inside Classified Records, which needs its own separate Classified Records Keycard to open, plus the security pad step with the red lights next to the doors.

What it unlocks

The Secure Storage room, one door, one entry, and then the card is gone.

Practically, that means a two card sequence in one visit:

1. Open one of the two heavy industrial doors into Classified Records with the Classified Records Keycard, then hit the security pad with the red lights to actually move the door.
2. Clear Classified Records, which is where the turret, the cameras and most of the Shredders are.
3. Find the Secure Storage door inside, and spend the epic card on it.

Both cards are consumed.

What is inside

Here is where we stop and say what we do not know.

There is no reliable published manifest for Secure Storage. It is high value, and every source agrees on that, but nobody has produced a repeatable container list the way they have for Classified Records. We are not going to invent one.

What does exist is anecdote. One guide's example raid reports the two rooms combined yielding a Bobcat, a Torrente, a Rascal grenade launcher, three Arpeggios and a pile of resources, with the author extracting with a haul they valued above seventy thousand. That is one player, one run, on a randomised loot table, and it counts the Classified Records haul in the same total. Read it as an indication of ceiling rather than an expectation.

What is defensible: this is the only epic keycard on the map, and it is buried behind another locked room in the most contested building on Riven Tides. Everything about its placement says the reward is meant to match.

Is it worth the detour

Yes, when you have both cards. No, when you only have this one.

An epic key you cannot reach is worth nothing, and the Port Authority is not a building you want to be standing in while you work that out.

With both, this is the highest ceiling run on Riven Tides. You clear the best documented container room on the map on the way in, then open the only epic gated room behind it, in one visit, for two single use cards.

Preparation people who run this recommend: something for the turret, lure grenades to pull roaming Shredders off you, and door blockers so the fight you started does not follow you in. You will be stationary in a contested building for a while.

How keys work in Arc Raiders

The four rules, plus the sequencing this room forces on you.

1. Single use. Both cards, the Classified Records one and this one, are consumed on their own doors.
2. Lost on death unless in your Safe Pocket, which they can be used directly from. On an epic key that is not optional.
3. Locked rooms reset between raids. Secure Storage refills, which is why the card retains value on repeat runs.
4. No fixed spawns. Shared loot pool and other players, no published rates, and epic rarity means fewer rolls go your way.

Order matters here in a way it does not anywhere else on this map. Outer door, security pad, clear the room, inner door. Get that sequence wrong under fire and you spend an epic key standing in the open.
