This is the best alternative lock. It is cheap. It is durable. The features are perfect for home owners and renters. It doesnt need conversion or adding of door holes. It doesnt look different from the old original locks. Dont complicate your problems guys. This is the solution to your lock problem. <image1.JPG>

Dear Neighbors,

Kindly educate me on this subject locksets? Is this applicable for unit with different tenant most of the time or good only for unit owners not renting out their units?

Dear Erb,


I sent an enquiry to Andar about remote revision.  No
reply
yet.


Yale and Schlage are the best locksets.  Too bad about
Gramercy
engineering not changing the units, as they seem competent
and
economical, and it resolves access issues for installers.


This is probably something I don't want to get involved
in on a detailed
level.  Good to know if I have mine changed, even to a
lever type, I
won't be forced to remove it.


Sincerely,

Jack

Jack,

Gramercy engineering won't do it as you can't
officially change
them.

But I was told by the higher ups that as long as they match
the color and
style (bulbs, NOT levers)

Then they won't make you take them down.


I did bring another batch of the Schlage locks
over.   They
can't be changed remotely,

but it takes less than a minute to delete the code and add a
new
one.   Schlage is one of the top 2 brands

besides Yale, and they are SUPER QUALITY.

I would be interested.


 


Being based overseas I would require installation even
if its done by
Gramercy Engineering.


 


Can these be accessed and pin changed remotely?

Dear All,



We are the Andar Lock distributors in the
Philippines.  We carry
the attached 3 locksets.  Installation isn't
automatic, but it's no
big deal.  We normally only supply and install for
new-build,
high-rise commercial/residential projects.



However, if anyone is interested in buying these
wholesale, I can put
together an order - if there are enough takers to make it
worthwhile.  The prices are the best I've seen, but
depend on size
of order.



Sincerely,


Jack

Hi I̢۪m Oddy Pilapil (Unit5727),



 



Jumping on
the conclusion, it̢۪s the
best way to have these keyless entry locks instastall in our
individual
units. There are numerous kinds/type of these locks now in
the market and
can wirelessly controlled via an app. (google it or YouTube
it). The
question is “which lock should we installllâ€
so we can have
uniformity. With these locks we can control who and when
people have
access to our units. For example you can set a PIN code that
works 6 hrs
for the cleaner. You can even open it remotely. Please visit
www.yale.co.uk
 for more
information.




 



Please let me know your feedback, once we decide which
type/brand of
these locks we will install. We can set someone to install
it and buy
these lock in bulk orders and who knows we might even get
free
installations.



 



Cheers,



Happy Holidays!

Allan,



 



Great suggestion but a credit card type of lock will be
more an
administrative nightmare for the owners and PMO! It's
also expensive as
it will involve purchasing another IT system which PMO
doesn't have the
competency to operate and maintain.



 



The digital lock suggested by Erb is I think the best
option in terms
of budget with zero maintenance and takes 15 mins to install
by his
team.



 



However, if there is a credit card type of key that can
be
independently installed individually, pls let the group so
that they can
consider this as an option.



 



Regards,



 



Jun

A keyless lock, ( like a credit card) the one use in

Dear Sarah Rafer




Further to my email dated 31 May 2016, I am requesting
for urgent
attention to my request to have the keyless entry lock
fixed.


My current guest report that he had lost money staying
in my unit. We
reported this matter to your Security Dept who interviewed
my guest and
studied the CCTV footage. Fortunately, the footage did not
show anyone
entering my apartment and he accepted the Security Dept CCTV
footage and
explanation.


I could not imagine if there will be an actual incident
of a similar
nature and the question of duplication of keys by previous
tenants cannot
be ruled out and put owners at risk. My solution to this is
to change to
a keyless entry lock system whereby owners can rest new
number passwords
and minimize the risk of duplication


I request for PMO's urgent attention to my request.



Sincerely,

PMO (General Manager)



Engr. Norie Libed


Operating Manager


Ms. Sarah Rafer






 
Dear Sarah Rafer,
I am writing to follow up for our request to have the
keyless entry
lock fixed in my unit 5920.
I understand the memorandum below, however,  some
of the unit
owners in Gramercy have already installed the one endorsed
by one of the
unit owners, Mr. Erb and approved by the former general
manager, Joseph
Bactol.
Erb and myself discussed this with your General manager,
Engr. Norie
Libed at your office.and had discussed this matter. Ms.
Norie Libed
mentioned she will discuss this matter at  the board
meeting last
May 6th, Friday, 2016.  Three weeks had past and I
haven't heard
anything about it. My caretaker had been in constant follow
up but no
update from your office.
We believe our request is reasonable for the board of
directors
approval.
1) As a unit owner, who lease out my unit for short term
lease, it is
advisable to upgrade the security of my unit, and make sure
our guest
won't lose a key, wherein the possibility of losing a
key is very high
risk or keys can be duplicated. We would like to avoid this
and take
extra measure not to encounter this kind of problem with our
guest.


Another matter, I am writing to  you, is the
implementation of
the access card, indicating more than 10 access card in a
year, there
will be additional charges of  500 pesos per request.
The last time, When, I visited your office (May 2,2016)
You have
mentioned that this memorandum is  still needed to get
though with
the board of directors meetings. You didn't hear much
from me about it,
then  because I  am confident this will be
consulted with the
majority of unit owners before it will be passed by the
board. I was
surprised to hear this news from my caretaker that the new
policy of the
access cards has already been implemented. 
I strongly request to your office and to the higher
board to
reconsider for short term lease, where in, we lease out our
unit for a
minimum of three nights. Considering your policy for 10
access card in a
year is very much possible for a short period within a
month. This will
give us (unit owners) an extra added pinch!
We understand, that  printing the access cards are
absolutely  added to your running costs. However;
charging unit
owners 500 pesos per request is unacceptable to us and not
reasonable to
charge 500 pesos per card to unit owners. As a unit owner,
who lived
overseas, we have all the right to lease out our unit for us
to be able
to pay for the up-keeping the unit and other fees.
It would be highly appreciated if you could consider the
benefits of
having our unit leased out in a short term basis without
feeling
suppressed  by your policy.
We highly suggest, if you are really for this issuance
of  green
access cards for short term  lease, why not come up
with one time
issuance of green cards, like the ones issued by the hotels;
machine
readable, without having the guest photo ID imprint on it. I
believe it
is better and more efficient, less costly, less job on your
part and more
convenient for everyone.
Where cards aren't necessary to have  the guest
name, face on
it, either date of check in and check out on the access
card, but you all
have the records intact on your machine, for your monitoring
purposes. 




Sincerely,                                                     

Takahashi, Ginalyn
Unit owner
