FRONT DOOR CLOSERS

Residents have received a security reminder from Axia regarding the front doors to our buildings.

In it, property manager Jodie Marion alludes to a problem with the closers on the doors, an issue many residents have mentioned over the past couple of months. The doors often don’t latch after someone has entered or exited, and this can obviously lead to security concerns, as Jodie mentioned in her e-mail to residents.

More than that, though, it can also affect interior heating. It also creates potential problems with the remote entry system (the buzzers we use for visitor access). This happens because a sensor is located in the doorway’s strike plate. If the door is improperly closed, the system might not work.

Jodie has brought our concerns to Brigil — so far, with little satisfactory response — but in the meantime, we can all pay closer attention to the problem.


When we come in or go out, let’s make sure the door is securely closed behind us. And if we notice that it isn’t latching, let’s keep reporting the issue to Jodie (613-738-9700 x 138), who will keep after Brigil.
