Doors – Safety & Security and Fire Protection
If you live in a block of flats, you may have a DOOR ENTRY SYSTEM (DES) sometimes called “controlled entry system”. If you do, it can be a good way to protect you and your home. These entry systems are designed to provide privacy and security for all residents.
n Do not wedge doors open - this can affect the mechanism and stop the door from working
n Do not bang doors unnecessarily
n Do not let anyone in unless you are sure who it is
n Report any problems with the door entry system promptly to the office
n Report anyone abusing the door system to us promptly
n If you need an extra door fob for access or have lost the original one - contact the office for a new one. There is a small charge for this.
