We know that this umbrella sticks out like a sore thump at our condo. After cleaning up the guard house to make it look neat, do you really think that we will put a cheap umbrella there. You can rest assured that this thing will not be a permanent feature . It is only a temporary measure taken by us due to the unpredictable weather. We have a couple of options to solve the issue.
The first option is to lenghten the roof so the motorists will not be affected by the rain. The cost to change the roof and the rotor arms is about RM 1400.00. This is the entrance. The exit is not affected by the rain if you use the lane beside the guardhouse.
The second option is to install two canopies as shown in the picture above, one for the exit point and the other for the entrance. The total cost is about RM 4000.00. Based on the feedback from other condos which have installed these canopies, the motorists will still be affected when the rain comes with strong wind. Another one of our concerns is that the motorist is not able to communicate with the security guard due to the barrier as shown in the picture above.
If we can disregard those two minor problems, we may go for the second option.
We need your feedback on the issue. You are free to comment.
Goodnight and have a nice day.
Mr. See,
ReplyDeleteCanopy or not, i see we will have to extend the card reader's range. Why not extend the range first and see if it's good solution? I don't feel it's wise to have a barrier blocking the guards' view. They need to have a clear view of everything within their post.
Block A Owner.
dear danny,
ReplyDeletethe barrier is transparent. we are problem with the autogate company. the after sales service is very very bad. we are practically calling them every day to come to repair the autogate. this is something left behind by the developer that we have to deal with.
Dear See,
ReplyDeletethe autogate company may be more willing to entertain our developer, the hand that feed them.
The developer's request for service on our behalf may work wonder. No try no gain.
dear raymond,
ReplyDeletewelcome back to PV10 blog.I told Gary Gan about the problem we are facing with the autogate company. The autogate manager came to carry out some trouble shooting yesterday. he decided to change some of the parts. Hopefully, everything will be back to normal again.
The autogate company is Eita Power, a company which is linked to Eita lift. You are free to make assumptions.
Dear See,
ReplyDeletei agree with Danny on the best option to overcome the subject problem if it's not beyond our means. By doing so, we emphatically impress Eita that they are not indispensable and can take us for a ride at their whim and fancy. We shall also instal canopies at visitor's lanes to provide them shelter fromrain when alighting from their vehicles to register themselves for entries. Plis review and decide.
being informed by a fren of mine that low cost flat are normally use EITA brand lift.. one of it which is near to our condo is the "blue flat"...
ReplyDeleteIts not just the lift that is not at all impressive, the color of the whole PV10 is daunting. I hope in 5 to 10 years time when it comes to repainting, we can choose a better color that reflects some image to the property. I can not forget once a relative of mine thought i purchased a apartment by looking at my condo :(
ReplyDeletedear anonymous.
ReplyDeleteafter five to ten years when we wish to carry out a repainting job, we can hold a design competition to choose the best colour for our condo. the JMC may not be around to see it.
Second option obviously is brainless design.
