Above
all else, we want Gateway Apartments to be a safe place for our Residents, their
guests, our employees, and our contractors. Please review your Life Safety
Agreement, and review the following paragraphs.
Life Safety Agreement:
You have signed a life safety agreement. The information in that agreement is
there for one purpose: to help the Landlord and Resident keep the apartment as
safe as possible. Please read this important document and contact us if there
is anything you do not understand.

Water Heaters and Closets:
State law mandates that there is to be no flammable, explosive, or combustible
items stored in, around or near any water heater or heating device with a
semi-closed or open flame. So, make sure that areas around your
water heater have no flammable items like newspaper, cardboard, or fuels like
kerosene or camp stove fuel or charcoal lighter.
Smoke Detectors: We
inspect all smoke detectors when you move in and when we perform winter safety
checks. During the year, you are required to inspect the detector by State Law
to insure it functions properly. If it is chirping, you need to change the
battery. Periodically test the unit by pressing on the button on the bottom of
the unit and insuring that a loud buzz is emitted by the unit.
Exit
Pathway: Make
sure your paths of travel are not cluttered in your apartment. Think about how
you would exit in an emergency where smoke obscured your path or in total
darkness and plan your furniture layout accordingly!
