[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Notice of Broken Doors and Demand for Repair Dear [Landlord’s Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you about the current condition of the doors in my apartment and to formally request their immediate repair. As a tenant residing at [your address], it is crucial that these issues are promptly addressed to ensure the safety and security of myself and my belongings. Firstly, I would like to inform you of the specific doors that are broken and require repair. There are two main doors in question: 1. Front Door: The front door of the apartment building, located at the main entrance, is in a state of disrepair. The lock mechanism is broken, making it difficult to securely lock or unlock the door. Additionally, the door has become loose from the frame, making it prone to rattling during strong winds or even light impacts. 2. Bedroom Door: Within my apartment, the bedroom door has also been damaged. The door handle is broken, leaving me unable to fully close or lock the door. This poses a significant privacy concern and compromises the overall security of my personal space. To ensure the safety and well-being of all residents, it is imperative that these issues are addressed promptly. I kindly request that you arrange for a qualified maintenance professional to inspect and repair the doors as soon as possible. Prompt action will guarantee the restoration of full functionality and security to these essential fixtures. As per the tenancy agreement, the responsibility for maintaining a habitable living environment, including repairing or replacing damaged doors, lies with the landlord. Failing to address these issues within a reasonable timeframe may result in avoidable hazards and additional damages, for which the landlord may be held liable. I kindly request that you acknowledge receipt of this notice in writing and inform me of the proposed timeline for the repairs to be completed. Should the repair work require access to my apartment, I am ready to cooperate and provide access as needed. I believe that maintaining open lines of communication between tenants and landlords is essential for fostering a positive living environment. Therefore, I trust that you will take this matter seriously and prioritize the prompt resolution of the aforementioned door issues. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and the subsequent repair work.
