Apartment Details
On this page we will give you information on the main equipment available in the apartment. If there is anything we have missed, please get in touch.
Electricity
If the electric power goes for any reason the trip switch is in the electric cupboard in the hall outside the apartment. You will find the key for this cupboard on top of the doorbell box beside the apartment door. As you are going into the bedroom the doorbell box is just in front of the door up high on the righthand side. Please ensure you lock the electrical cabinet and return the key after use. If there are still problems with the electricity than please get in contact with us.
Garage
House Sonas has it’s own garage. The internal door to the garage is located in the main corridor downstairs. The garage is the last door on the left of the corridor as you enter the building. This internal door should be kept locked at all times.
The external door to the garage is the most left-hand garage door as you look at the building from the courtyard. The purple key opens the garage door. This door can be locked from the outside and inside without a key by twisting the handle. The door needs to be pushed / pulled in as it is locked otherwise the lock mechanism can miss the slot. Please keep this door locked at all times.
