New Security System to be installed

900 Marshy Cove Condominium Association

All residents at 900 Marshy Cove

Recently our front door entry call box failed after 11 years of service.  

The replacement plan is as follows: 

~~Install a temporary keypad to secure the front door.

~~Install a FOB electronic key system to secure both lobby entrances.

The new system will include a call box for visitors and a FOB reader at each lobby door, 

The system will create a record each time a fob is used to enter the building.

Owners, tenants, and visitors will no longer use the "code" to enter.  A universal code will not be available. Special codes will be assigned to regular delivery service people like the USPS, UPS, and Fed Express. 

Visitors will use the call box. The box will call the resident, the resident can then release the door from their phone.  If a cell phone is used, the resident need not be on the premises.

If a FOB is lost or stolen, the fob can be deactivated.  A new FOB can be assigned to the unit owner.

There will always be some special situations that will require workarounds, so, a little patience may be required.

Temporary Keypad: (installed 5/3)

To enter the front door lobby, two codes will work.

The keypad requires a four digit number plus the “Star Key”

See notice at the front door for the codes.

If you still have difficulty, call the resident that you are visiting or Sentry Management.

Long-term replacement:

A new access system is on order. The system will allow access by the presentation of a FOB.

All FOB’s will be registered. If a FOB is lost, it can be de-activated.

The system will also include a call box for visitor access.

Each unit will be assigned two FOBs. Extra FOBs can be purchased. ($8.00 each)

We expect the system to be installed before May 31.

We expect to distribute FOB’s before it is operational. At that time will collect contact information.

What is a FOB?

It is a token that fits on your keychain: an electronic key.

An electronic chip inside activates the reader and unlocks the door.
