To start with, we don’t want to say some rather we all are courteous safe with good and excellent
background in giving respects, this is why we all chose Abraj Al Lulu as our home. We are also humans
and could have some unintentional negligence. When it comes to children, teenagers, grandchildren,
and domestic helpers, they are learning from our behaviors as adults. Therefore, we would like to
bring these points to your attention, including parents, custodians, and even grandparents.
Elevators – Sometimes residents or their guests when pushing to call on the elevator may push both
buttons (up & down) at the same time and when the elevator stops at the floor the person wants to
get in the elevator asks “is it going up or down?” It is a courtesy to push the button of the desired
level either UP for higher floors or DOWN for lower floors, but please not both. And for those who
are waiting for the elevator, it is always a courtesy to make room for the people inside the elevator
to get out first. Some residents or guests call for the elevator and hold the door open until the
accompanying person arrives, who might still be in the apartment or having a corridor chat, in some
cases the elevator is kept on hold for a whole five minutes so please be courteous not to hold the
elevator and get in as soon as it arrives because there might be others waiting for it. In the event
when the service elevator is out of order please be courteous and use the assigned elevator. Please
be courteous and report any issue you notice in the elevator to the reception, such as: cleanness,
damage, or any malfunction. Some people do not like pets so if they refrain from getting into the
elevator when you have your pet with you please be courteous and just understand their position.
Car Park – Some residents park in their allocated parking spots diagonally which makes it difficult
for others to park. So please be courteous and park your vehicle straight, centered, and parallel to
the marked lines; this will offer everyone ease while parking and enough space to exit the
vehicle. Some people use others’ parking spots, so please remember these spots are privately owned
by residents, some people park in non-parking areas that obstruct traffic flow, in case of an
emergency this act could be vital and can legally be prosecuted by law. Moreover, some spots are
designed as back to back parking, so when residents do not park in the center of these parking spots
the neighboring vehicles may become an obstacle. So please be courteous and park responsibly.
Furthermore, some residents stop in the middle of the way just to do drop-offs or pick-ups, in many
cases it obstructs traffic and cause annoyance to others, so please be courteous and do not obstruct
traffic.
Fire Safety – It is a very serious issue when residents keep the electrical cooker or oven on and simply
leave the apartment for whatever reason; incidents did happen earlier and could happen again. So
please be more than just courteous, be careful when it comes to such hazardous issues and do not
leave or abandon the cooker or oven while cooking. Moreover, the use of charcoal and the disposal
of lit cigarettes through garbage chutes, this have led to fire incidents before. Even neglected mobile
phone chargers can also be dangerous, so please unplug when leaving the apartment or sleeping
these are life threatening matters.
Garbage Chute – Chutes are designed for normal household waste and not for un-bagged trash,
cartoons, building materials or furniture or unwanted stuff. So please be courteous and use it for the
purpose which it’s designed for; otherwise you will cause blockage in the chute path.
Finally, please be courteous and extend your help to the children, and those who are aged, sick,
handicapped, and pregnant women.
