Title: Elgin Illinois Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice of Broken Doors and Repair Demand Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a maintenance issue within my rental unit that requires immediate attention. Specifically, I would like to address the broken doors in my apartment. As a responsible tenant, it is crucial to notify you promptly to ensure the safety and security of my dwelling. Description of the Problem: 1. Broken Entry Door: The entry door to my apartment has been found to be dysfunctional. The door handle is loose, making it difficult to open and close smoothly. Additionally, the locking mechanism is faulty, providing inadequate security. This poses a potential security hazard and compromises the safety of both myself and other tenants in the building. 2. Damaged Interior Doors: Apart from the entry door, I have also noticed issues with the interior doors within my apartment.

This jeopardizes our safety and calls for immediate repair to restore the premises' security. 2.
