[200WILLIAM-EC SP67851] SLIDING DOOR - LOUNGE ROOM

Tue Aug 13 14:58:38 AEST 2024

Hi Matt,

The sliding door issue in my apartment has been going on for almost two years. The EC was provided quotes by six contractors (via Darren) last year. The issue, as confirmed by five of the contractors is the warped frame and track. I have already had Matt G and Paul up into my apartment to witness the issue, together with Greg, our building manager.

The problem is a ‘common area’ issue and the basic repairs didn’t work and were never intended to be a long-term solution, as Henry stated in his quote.

Please advise if the EC can make a decision on having new doors and frames installed or do we need a special general meeting. If it is the latter, so be it. If a special levy needs to be made, then that is unfortunate, but must be done. I cannot risk the door coming off the track again. This is a building safety issue.

Thank you.

Craig

Hi Craig, 
I’m a bit unsure what you’re asking for. You were talking to Sarah about a special general meeting which is a meeting of all owners where resolutions are voted on. For that to take place we would need an agenda with a solid proposal and costs to vote on. But by the sound of that last email it seems  like you just are after a committee meeting which can be organised by Sarah.  

Can you please confirm what sort of meeting you are requesting. A meeting of the committee or a
Meeting of all owners. If it’s the former the committee will need to organise quotes and put forward motions to be voted on.  If it’s the latter it could be held at your apartment if you’re wiling. 

Matt

Hello Kylie,

I’m sorry but this issue has dragged on for way too long. Matt G and Paul were very helpful in attending my apartment several weeks ago to see the issue and Paul came up again on August 4 after the door had come off the track. And no, the ‘people’ did not “fix the door”. The problem is a warped frame, which holds three large panels of glass. Confirmed by six contractors already.

I would prefer to move to a zoom session to have this matter finalised.

Matt P, would you kindly organize this. Thank you.

Regards,

Craig

Hi Matt

I’m fine to proceed with a general meeting to discuss the problem and solution of those doors.

Can we host it in Craig’s apartment please so we can see the door?

Also I thought the people fixed the door, so it will be good to understand why it keeps falling off as that is dangerous.

Warm Regards,

Kylie

Hi Craig,

Thanks for your email, and yes I am back!

I don’t have authority to convene a general meeting, only the secretary on the strata committee can call a general meeting or majority of the committee must issue instructions to call a general meeting.

I will need either of the above in order to convene a general meeting to table this issue.

Kind regards,

Hello Sarah,

I understand you may have just returned from vacation, however, would you kindly organize a special meeting asap regarding the sliding door in my lounge room. It came off the track a week ago and continues to be impossible to open/close. It’s not feasible to keep waiting until we receive the details on the building repairs, to have this meeting. It wouldn’t take long. Kindly confirm.

Thank you and regards,

Craig

Hi John and EC members,

I have an extra panel of sliding doors (to John’s) and it just jumped off the warped track. The frames of the entire doors/solid panel are, as has been determined by 6 contractors, out of alignment. The entire framework/doors must be replaced asap.

Sarah, would you kindly organize a special meeting asap in order to have this matter resolved. It’s coming up to 2 years since I first advised the building of this problem. It’s just so dangerous. The door/doors can easily fall at any time when opening them or closing them.

Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you re this meeting.

Regards,

Craig

Hi Craig,

This has happened to me in the past, the door came off the tracks and fell outwards. It hit the balcony rail. Repair was effective,  no problem since, gave me quite a shock though.

Hello Greg,

The sliding door in the lounge room has come off the track, entirely. Would you please have someone come and lift it back ASAP. This is an emergency repair.

Thank you.

Craig
