Alarms – Building Doors:

All main floor exterior doors are secured and alarmed after normal office hours. With the exception of cross-over floors, all stairwell doors are locked at all times, providing additional security. Because we cannot by law lock the stairwell doors on the crossover floors, we have alarmed the doors on these floors. We strongly urge tenants to install alarms in their premises. Please contact us for assistance on this matter.

Bicycles:
We have parking for bicycles available in the building parkade. We do not allow any bicycles to be brought onto typical office floors in the building. Please contact 604-683-2141 if you require further information.

Elevator Use:
Use of the elevators for moving furniture or large deliveries etc. must be booked with our office in advance. We require this so we can install the protective padding if it is needed and more importantly so we can ensure that we always have elevators available to move our tenants and their guests throughout the building during the working day.

Please see Deliveries & Shipments for more details.

Lost and Found:
A Lost and Found is maintained in the Management Office at 230 – 830 West Pender Street.   Please contact us Tel. 604-683-2141.

Motorcycle Parking :
There is limited space available for motorcycle parking in the building parkade.   We also have allocated parking stalls available in the parking area behind the building.  Please contact Mike Rushford at mrushford@westpenderproperty.com if you are interested in renting a space.

Parking: 
We do not have any parking available at the building except for registered, paid parking patrons.  Parking is not permitted in the loading bay at any time.  To inquire about parking please contact Mike Rushford at mrushford@westpenderproperty.com.

Signage:
In order to ensure that the common areas of the building look professional and tidy at all times we require that all tenant signage be building standard.  We do not permit any other signage to be visible from the common area except for alarm system decals which may be placed in the lower left hand corner of your door or sidelight.

All tenant signage can be ordered through the management office.  We also have available small signs which read “Please Knock for Access” and “Please Ring for Access” for tenants who have alarm systems or locked doors.

Please contact Mike to order any signs or if you have further questions.

Smoking:
Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside the building by City of Vancouver bylaw. The new City of Vancouver By-Law also prohibits smoking within 6 meters (approximately 20 feet) from any building entrance or air intake system. Tenants who have employees that smoke are asked to ensure that these regulations are followed.  Regardless of the laws on smoking, in order  to make the access to the building pleasant for your clients and guests as well as your employees we ask that you please ensure your employees do not smoke anywhere in front of the building.

Guidelines for Moving In and Out of the Building:
These guidelines have been developed to ensure a safe and efficient move for you and your organization.  Following these guidelines will expedite your move and protect the people handling the move as well as your property and the building itself.  These guidelines are in no way meant to hamper or restrict your moving process, but rather to safeguard the elements involved in the process.  Please let us know how we can best assist with your move.  We would be happy to answer any further questions you may have; please call the office at 604-683-2141.

No moves in or out of the building can be facilitated without prior notification to our offices.  To ensure your needs can be met please provide as much notice as possible.  All moves are scheduled on a first come, first served basis.

All moves must be handled through the freight elevator only which will be wrapped with protective pads as required.
