Security
Electronic registered key fobs are used to open the front entry doors and to gain access to your floor via the lift. These electronic fobs are an important security feature. If you lose your security fob this must be reported to the Building Manager immediately and it will be deactivated to protect our security.
The security entry system requires visitors to call your apartment number from outside the front glass doors then again at the keypad at the lift, once it has arrived. That is, you need to let your visitors into the foyer on the first call then let them up to your floor via the lift on the second call.
Never let anyone unknown to you tailgate you into the building or garage as this poses a major security risk. Burglars often gain access to apartments in this manner or posing as couriers etc. Remember that if they are legitimately visiting someone it is their responsibility to contact the resident to gain entry.
We all share the responsibility to keep Tara safe, so please report any leaks, major spills of liquid, smoke or other perceived dangers immediately to our Building Manager. This can include suspicious people hanging around our building or non-residents entering our common areas or garage space. Keep in mind that a quick phone call could save a life, avoid a robbery or assault.
The Pyrmont suburb, although relatively safe, is not immune to urban crime. Please be aware of your surroundings, particularly after dark. The local city police are generally responsive and can be reached on 9219 2199. The Police Line is 131 444.
CCTV Cameras
We have numerous security cameras working 24 hours a day. Video footage can be provided to the police in case of any incidents in or outside Tara
Access FOBs
Security access fobs are available on request from the Building Manager. Each lot is limited to two (2) Security fobs per bedroom, plus one (1) Security fob issued to the Owner if the Owner is not the current Occupier.
Unfortunately fobs cannot be requested directly by tenants. If you are a tenant and require an extra or replacement fob then your landlord or agent must make the application on your behalf. A small fee applies for each fob ordered.
