BUILDING FACILITIES

Fulton Lane offers a unique range of facilities for your convenience and enjoyment.

Access & Secu r i t y

Maintaining the security of Fulton Lane is a shared responsibility of all residents. It is therefore essential that

extra care be taken when entering or exiting the building, ensuring that no one unknown to you is permitted

to enter at the same time.

External entry / exit doors must not be propped open and are to be closed securely behind you each time.

Your assistance and cooperation is also required to ensure that lift access codes, which have been allocated

to each floor, remain confidential information, known and used only by residents.

Car Park in g

For those who have purchased or leased a car parking space, these are located in the basement of the

building and are accessible via A’Beckett Street.

Your allocated parking space is yours to use exclusively. Any other car space may only be used with the

express permission of the respective Owner/Lessor. No 'visitors parking' is accommodated within the

basement of the building.

Garage D oor

The opening / closing mechanism of the garage door is controlled by sensitive electronic equipment.

Under certain circumstances it will be necessary for the garage door to remain open eg. When maintenance

is being carried out, or when residents are moving in or vacating.

Please note | No vehicles or items are to be placed in the path of the door sensor to prevent it from closing

as it will cause the system to malfunction. Likewise residents are asked to refrain from tampering with the

garage door control box. Should problems occur please advise the Building Manager of the fault

immediately.

Any costs incurred as a result of an owner or resident damaging the garage door, will be borne by that

person.

L i f t s

The lifts at Fulton Lane act as part of the building’s security system with programed swipe keys providing

access to individual floors and facilities. To access your floor:

Swipe your proximity card over the keypad in the lift.

Press the floor number button you require.

Holding Door Open | If the lift doors need to be held open for a period of time e.g. when moving personal

belongings or furniture, a bypass key must be obtained from the Building Manager.

Please do not hold the lift doors open after they start to “beep” as this creates a safety risk, damages the lift

computer and can cause lift failure or malfunction along with inconvenience to all residents. If this happens,

let the doors close naturally then open them again.

Balcon ies

When using your balcony please consider the comfort of those below and ensure:

Cigarette butts and litter are not discarded over the balcony.

When cleaning or watering plants, excess water is prevented from flowing over the edge

Balconies are kept tidy and items firmly secured at all times.

Laundry, towels, clothing etc., are not placed/dried on balconies at any time.


Gymn as iu m | Accessible Daily 6am – 10pm

Doors automatically lock outside of these hours. Only exit via internal manual release button at right of door.

The gymnasium, its equipment and sauna are provided for the use of residents and their guests. A resident

must accompany guests and be responsible for the use of the area. Children under the age of 18 must be

accompanied by a responsible adult.

Please ensure that all safety precautions are taken to avoid sustaining injury including:

Avoiding incorrect and misuse of the equipment

Adhering to the Owners Corporation Rules for these areas, at all times

Reporting any faulty or damaged equipment to the Building Manager ASAP.

Swimming Pool Proper swim attire is required. No street clothes, cut offs, denim shorts, or thong bathing suits are permitted

in the pool area, unless deemed appropriate for religious purposes.

Children under the age of 18 years old must be accompanied by a parent /guardian at all times. All children under 13 years of age must be accompanied in the water by a parent/guardian at a ratio of one parent/guardian to four children. Children who cannot swim must be within an arm’s reach of a parent /guardian and remain in the shallow end. There must be one parent /guardian per each child who cannot swim.

Only service animals permitted in Aquatic Facility, all other pets are not allowed.

Children who are not toilet trained must wear swim nappies (Huggies Little Swimmers or equivalent).

Individuals who cannot swim are only allowed in the shallow end.

Gum and Band-Aids must be deposited in the trash cans before entering the water.

All patrons or swimmers having a communicable disease or displaying signs and symptoms of a communicable disease which can be transmitted through normal swimming pool use shall be excluded.

Glass, sharp objects, or any other items which might cause injury or accidents shall not be allowed in the pool or pool area.

Spitting, spouting water, blowing the nose, or discharging bodily waste in the pool is strictly prohibited.

All persons using the swimming pool must take a shower before entering the pool enclosure.

Persons having open blisters, cuts, etc… are advised not to use the pool.


BUILDING PROCEDURES

To ensure that this community is well maintained for many years to come, the following

procedures have been put in place by the Owners Corporation.

No Smokin g

Fulton Lane is a non-smoking building, therefore smoking is not permitted within any of the common areas,

such as the lifts, stairwells, (including Fire Stairs), storage areas, lobbies, gymnasium etc.

Any smoke produced within the common areas may result in the fire alarm and/or sprinklers being triggered,

and the attendance of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade. A false alarm call made in such instances incurs a fee of

approximately $2,000 which will be invoiced directly to the resident identified as being responsible.

It is therefore in your interest to ensure you and your friends adhere strictly to this rule.

Ru bb ish D isp osal

For your convenience, rubbish chutes are located on each floor of Fulton Lane for the easy disposal of your

domestic rubbish. Please ensure that you utilise this facility correctly and in doing so, assist in maintaining

this building in a clean and tidy manner for the enjoyment of all.

Recycling | Separate bins for recyclable items are provided in the downstairs refuse room. This includes all

glass, plastic and steel containers along with cardboard and packaging. To make the most of this space all

cardboard boxes must be disassembled/broken down and stacked flatly in the bin provided. Following a

move to Fulton Lane, your removalist must take all packaging away.

Cleanl iness in Pub l ic Areas

The Owners Corporation employs the On-site Manager to supervise the routine cleaning of the common

areas. While this is carried out regularly, all residents are asked to assist in keeping the common areas clean

and well presented by not littering or causing damage to the walls and carpet.

Bu i ld in g an d Ren ovat ion Works in Apart ment s

Please inform the Building Manager of any building or major renovation work to be done in apartments to

ensure compliance with Owners Corporation rules.

F i re an d Emergen cy Proced ures | Fire Evacuation – Emergency Plan & Fire Orders

For your safety, Fire Emergency Evacuation Procedures have been established for this building by the Owners

Corporation.

At your earliest convenience please familiarise yourself with the ‘Fire Evacuation – Emergency Plan & Fire

Orders’ and display them in your apartment.

During a fire all Emergency doors will be automatically activated. Front door, Side door will operate

manually, the main Garage door will lock allowing only pedestrian exit from door at left of bi-fold door, or

fire escapes on each level. Do not use lifts in event of fire.

Further copies of the “Fire Evacuation - Emergency Plan and Fire Orders” are available from the Building

Manager.


Fa lse A larms | $2,000 call out fee

In the event of a false alarm being set off and responded to by the Metropolitan Fire Department, the

identified resident will incur the full expenses of $2,000.

To prevent such occurrences, please avoid the following practices which are known to trigger the alarm:

Smoking in common areas; corridors, floor landings, lifts, fire stairwells, gymnasium

Utilisation of fire hoses for reasons other than a fire.

Excess cooking smoke entering common area corridors from an apartment eg. burning toast or other

food (in non-dangerous situations only windows should be opened to allow excess smoke to escape)

Excess heat/steam entering common area corridors from an apartment eg. when the apartment

front door remains open during the steam cleaning of carpets.

If undertaking works in your apartment that may trigger the nearest fire alarm, please notify the Building

Manager so that the alarm may be disconnected at the Fire Panel.
