Entry Door Rubbed Slightly on Saddle

LVT Number: 17960

Tenant complained of a reduction in services because her apartment entry door rubbed slightly on the saddle. The DRA ruled against tenant, finding this a minor condition. Tenant appealed and lost. The failure of an apartment door to properly align is listed as a minor condition in the Rent Stabilization Code, as long as the door closes and locks properly. The condition of tenant's door was minor and didn't warrant any rent reduction.
