[200William-EC] MARQUIS - REAR LANEWAY DOORS

[Shane Ellis]

hey Matt, 
these are fire rated doors, so bringing them flush with the building would also require extending the adjacent fire-rated blockwork, etc... Expensive, and also may invoke other certification issues... 

The strobe, however... Brilliant!
Marsha and her clients would have to find somewhere else to 'get busy' - That would be enough to put anyone out of focus... We would need to place a protective cage around the strobe to stop someone smashing it... I love what you're thinking. 


Best Regards

Hi All,
 I would point out that the cheaper quote (Strata remedial) does not include a stainless 900mm plate. Im not sure that's a bad thing but worth consideration. 

It may also be worth considering some changes in the layout of the doors. I own another commercial property in the city that suffered the same problem and went down this path several times. No matter what type of paint was used eventual daily cleaning and daily exposure to corrosive's caused the same problem it just takes a little longer to resurface.  Ultimately the problem was cured by building the doors out level with the building face.  It was not the fact that it was a door drawing people to it but that the door was recessed so they could get off the street and remain somewhat hidden. 

This is likely the case with the small stair well  and door in the drive way. Although I am not 100 percent sure how much we can improve that layout less then amalgamating the two doors. I have also hunted a prostitute and her client a few times from that location. The quite off the street hide away is begging for people to use it for these purposes. 

Alternatively if we remain with the same layout may I suggest installation of a PIR and Strobe with a  time delay.  This is a fairly cheap solution. It involves an infrared sensor in the hiding place and a bright blue strobe light (like on an alarm system) that would flash  for a few minutes  when someone enters the cavity.The strobe should also be in the cavity and in the persons face.  The triggering of the strobe in the offenders face may just be enough for him to pick another spot. The view of the strobe from the above apartments and the eye's of drivers in the drive way need to be considered but it's a reasonable solution. 

I have found that standard security auto on type flood lights do not work in this situation and only server to annoy close by tenants going on/off all night.
