The door will automatically unlock for approximately 10 seconds – if you do not open the door during that time, it will re-lock and you must re-enter the code.
   2. Turn the alarm system off: when you first enter the building, you will hear the alarm beeping (you have 60 seconds before the siren goes off and the monitoring service is contacted). Open the cover of the alarm panel, enter the four-digit alarm system code provided by the Association Manager and then press the number 1 (OFF) button; for example, you would enter – – – – 1. The alarm is now off; however, you will hear several short beeps each time an exterior door is opened.

To do this, push and hold the push-bar in and using the hex key located in the top drawer of the desk by the front door, insert the key in the small hole next to the push-bar. Turn the key clockwise until you hear a click, then release the push-bar. If the push-bar stays in, then the door will remain unlocked. To lock the doors, the push-bars must be switched back to the locked position. Press and hold the push-bar in, then insert the hex key and turn it counter-clockwise until you hear a click. When you let go of the push-bar, it should release and pull back from the door into the locked position. Leave the hex key in the drawer.
