The Maintenance Key Card is an essential item in Sons of the Forest that will open different spaces for you around the map. If you are looking to get weapons like the Katana or the Chainsaw, you will need the Maintenance Keycard to unlock some of the doors of other bunkers.

The Maintenance Keycard is also used to gain access to the VIP Keycard, which is needed to unlock other Keycard-locked doors. This can be found by going northwest of this location, finding a cave, and exploring the bunker within. You use that VIP Card to gain access to the Guest Keycard.
