Subject: PROBLEM REPORT: SP52948 Elevator in Block D broken second time in two weeks and decreased security due to wide-open Fire Door 2 and 3 on 7 December 2019
Date: 7/12/19, 9:17 pm

Good evening,

For the second time in less than two weeks, elevator in Block D has been out of order today. That comes just two months after major upgrades that should guarantee smooth operation for many years ahead.

In both cases, not only tenants in Block D have been disadvantaged by being forced to use stairs, but tenants in Block C and A are exposed to possible intruders through wide-open and unmonitored Fire Doors 2 and 3 (photos attached).

The elevator in Block D has been out of action for at least several hours and there is reasonable fear that it will not be repaired until Sunday morning.

Thank you.
