• ENTRANCES

  89 River Street is accessed by a main entry lobby on River Street and two car park entrances also off River Street. There are also pedestrian access doors at the car park entrances and an external stairway to access Chapel Mews. All of these access areas are secured by proximity card readers.

  • Residents can access the building using their proximity card as the building incorporates an access control system with proximity card readers at all entry points.
  • Visitors are required to contact a resident via intercom. The intercom is located at the Main Entry Lobby to each block of apartments.
  • Maintaining security is the shared responsibility of all residents of SY21. 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 therefore gaining unauthorised access.

  • There are visitor car parks located immediately inside the entrances to the car park. Permanent visitor parking is not permitted.
  • The maximum allowable height of vehicles entering the car park is 2.0m. Vehicles over this height are prohibited from entering the car park as they may cause damage to overhead duct and pipe work. Should this occur, it is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to pay for any damage, which may be incurred. If it is a visitor or contractor to a particular apartment, the liability will rest with the apartment owner.
  • In certain areas of the car park, overhead ductwork and pipe work is below 2.0m and these areas have been highlighted with reflective hazard tape.

  • Always use your proximity card when entering or exiting the car park. Only one vehicle is permitted to enter or exit the building per swipe of the proximity card. If you fail to swipe, the garage door could end up on the bonnet or roof of your vehicle.
  • For security purposes, do not leave your proximity card in your vehicle.
