Harbor Court is open to the public from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and on Saturdays, it
is open from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Tenants must fill out a Building Access Request form and submit a current Certificate of Insurance (COI) to
the Management Office at least 48 hours in advance to provide vendor/contractor access or use the freight
elevators.
If you have a last minute request, we still need to verify the vendor has current COI and a BAR form
authorizing them into your space.
Freight Elevators
The freight (service) elevator is for use by contractors, maintenance personnel and for deliveries into the
building.
Water - Related Work
All contractors or vendors coming into the building to work on anything "water-related" must be
accompanied by the building's Chief Engineer or Assistant Chief Engineer who will be present at the onset
of the work, up until the completion of such work. The cost of the Chief Engineer's time will be at the sole
cost of the contractor or vendor.
Examples of water-related work would include, but are not limited to: work on the fire sprinklers, the
domestic water system, a cooling tower drain down, Reg-4 water flow testing, miscellaneous plumbing and
valve repairs.
Please refer to the Tenant Improvement & Moving section regarding additional important information.
Building Security: After Hours Access
Harbor Court is open to the public from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and on Saturdays, it
is open from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
SIGN IN AT SECURITY DESK AFTER HOURS - If you are working any time after 6:00 p.m. Monday
through Friday, or anytime during the weekend (even when the building is open), be sure to sign-in at the
Security desk. If an after-hours emergency occurs in the building, emergency personnel (Honolulu Fire
Department, Honolulu Police Department, Civil Defense, etc.) will ask Security to provide them with the sign
in sheet of names of those individuals working in the building at that time.
PARKING GARAGE: Access here is accomplished through the use of your parking access card (for
monthly parkers). To open the gate arm for garage access, swipe your card in front of the card reader
located on the left side of the entrance ramp.
Visitors can take a ticket from the public parking ticket dispenser.
For access to your floor in the commercial office building, please swipe your FOB at the reader located in
the building entry. Use your FOB again, once in the elevator, to select your destination floor. If you need
assistance with this, please call the after-hours Security emergency number at 536-0136.
Building FOB's are necessary for after-hours access to the building.
VISITORS & GUESTS: All tenants must escort their guests.
FOB’s:
NEW FOB's: Tenant must submit a FOB Request form, signed by an authorized representative, in
order to obtain a FOB.
LOST OR STOLEN FOB's: Inform the Building Management office immediately if lost, stolen or not
received from an ex-employee.
TERMINATED EMPLOYEES:
Notify the Building Management Office right away.
Provide an updated Emergency Contact List (if the employee was listed on it).
All information pertaining to the ex-employee will be deleted from our computer system.
For the protection of the tenants in the building, it is imperative that the ex-employee’s FOB's
are recovered.
If a terminated employee is permitted to retain their FOB and you forget to notify the Building
Management Office of the termination, this person will still have access to the building
after-hours and may possibly have access to your suite. Tenants will be charged a fee for all
FOB’s lost or not recovered from ex-employees.
If a FOB is no longer needed or in use, please return the FOB and key.
All forms are located in the Building Services tab.
Building Security: Security Tips
Suspicious Persons or Calls
If any of you are faced with a “threatening” situation, we advise you to call 911 (Police) immediately. You
may also call the Security, at (808) 541-4385 or (808) 536-0136. If possible, make note of appearance,
clothing, etc. to assist building security in locating them.
Please be aware of strangers in your tenant areas and halls. Quite often a question such as “May I help you
locate someone?” is enough to deter a potential thief. Suspicious encounters of this type should be reported
to Security or the Office of the Building immediately.
If you have any questions concerning these matters, please call Security at 541-4385 or Building
Management at 524-4188.
Building Security: Solicitation
Our staff attempts to prevent undesirable persons, including solicitors, from entering the building. We are
successful in the majority of cases, but due to the volume of persons entering and exiting the building, these
people manage to elude our staff.
For your protection, the following procedures are suggested:
In the event a solicitor gains entrance to your suite, ask him to have a seat while you contact your office
manager. Your office manager should call the Building Management Office at 808-524-4188 immediately.
The Manager will request a member of the building staff to visit your suite immediately so that the solicitor
may be escorted off the premises.
THE SOLICITOR SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT ALONE OR UNOBSERVED WHILE IN YOUR SUITE.
If the solicitor leaves your suite prior to the arrival of the building staff, please make note of his or her general
description, approximate age and color of clothes, as this information will assist our staff in identifying the
solicitor.
Building Security: Parking Garage Theft-Prevention
While we have security patrolling the area, there are additional ways you can help prevent vehicle theft.
Please see below for useful tips:
Place items out of sight before reaching your destination. Someone may be watching when you
put your valuables under a seat or in the trunk and the moment you're gone, a thief could break into
your car.
Never leave a trace. Don't leave any sign that there might be valuables "out of sight" in your vehicle.
For example: the suction cup on your dashboard, might tell thieves, that you have a GPS system in
your vehicle.
Lock your vehicle. Even if you're walking away for a second, it only takes a second to steal
something from it.
Watch for any suspicious person(s) walking around or hanging out in the Parking Garage.
Building Security: General Office Security Checklist
For your own internal security and also for the security of the building, it is in your best interest to control the
number of keys issued. Only people needing after hour access should be issued a key.
The following is a list of general office security suggestions, which are offered to you as an aid in
establishing your internal security procedures:
Restrict office keys to those who actually need them.
Keep complete, up-to-date records of the distribution of all office keys.
Have adequate procedures for collecting keys prior to termination of employees.
Establish a rule that keys must not be left unguarded on desks or cabinets.
Require that filing cabinet keys be removed from locks and placed in a secure location after opening
cabinets.
Prevent unauthorized personnel from reporting a lost key and receiving a replacement.
A responsible person is in charge of issuing all keys.
Store keys systematically in a secured wall cabinet of either your own design or from a commercial
key control system.
Insist on identification from repairmen who come to work in your office.
Clear all desks of important papers.
When working alone in the office at night, lock the front door to prevent anyone else from entering.
Keep the police, fire department, and building security telephone numbers posted.
Double-check to see that all doors are securely locked before you leave.
Building Security: Key and Lock Policy
Control over issued office building keys is an integral part of our overall security system. In the event you
are locked out of your suite during normal business hours, you may obtain access to your suite by
contacting the Security Office. We will require valid identification before permitting access.
If a tenant forgets his/her key to the office suite or is locked out after-hours, the Building Management Office
will be unable to assist you. You will be required to contact someone from your firm to gain access to your
office space.
For each lockset installed, two keys are issued. If additional keys are required, they may be obtained at an
additional cost by contacting the Building Management Office.
All door hardware installed at Harbor Court must be the pre-selected building standard hardware. Tenants
are not permitted to change, modify, or install any other type of hardware unless it is pre-approved by the
Building Management Office.
Building Security: Lost and Found
Lost and found for the building is located at the Security Office next to the Loading Dock. It will be
necessary to present identification and describe the lost item in order to retrieve lost property.
Building Security: Property Removal
A Building Access Request Form must be filled out any time you want to bring or remove furniture,
equipment or large objects from Harbor Court.
Anyone removing items from Harbor Court must use the freight elevator and will be required to check-in with
the Security desk before the move. Persons attempting to remove property without proper authorization will
be referred back to the tenant’s office. Security guards may not permit removal of any tenant’s furniture,
equipment, etc. without proper authorization.
Please refer to the Moving Policy under Policies & Procedures.
Building Services: Building Signage and Directory
Signage/Graphics
Except as otherwise provided in your lease, no sign, placard, picture, advertisement, name or notice shall
be inscribed, displayed, printed or affixed on or to any part of the outside or inside of the building premises.
The Building Management Office reserves the right to remove any such sign without notice and at the
tenant’s expense.
Only signs approved in writing by the Building Management Office may be displayed in public view. This
includes but is not limited to: point-of-purchase displays, sales and clearance signs, seasonal signs, special
merchandising displays, placards, pictures, notices and the like.
The Building Management Office will provide an order form prior to your move-in for suite entry door
signage, which must be completed and returned to the Building Management Office. There is a two-week
lead-time for fabrication of the signage. Requests to change the lettering on suite doors should be made in
writing using the form provided by the Building Management Office. All changes to tenant’s suite signage
will be at the tenant’s expense and must conform to building standards.
Directories and Directory Strips
Each tenant may obtain identification in the lobby directories as specified in each lease. Please see the
terms of your lease for any applicable changes.

Emergency Procedures: Bomb Threat
Telephone Threat
When a bomb threat is made over the telephone, obtain the following information from the caller:
Exact location of the device
Time set for explosion
Description of the device
Reason the caller has placed the bomb
Exact words used by the caller
Keep this information as confidential as possible.
Notify the Police Department. Call 911.
Notify the Management Office at 808-524-4188 or Security at 808-541-4385.
Once the Management Office has been notified of a bomb threat, it is our policy to advise your firm’s
manager or officer. It is up to the manager or officer to decide whether it is appropriate to evacuate the
office.
In the event that you are asked to evacuate the Building, move away from the Building to allow for the clear
passage of emergency personnel. Do not re-enter the Building until the Management Office or the Police or
Fire Department has given clearance.
Suspicious Packages or Mail Bombs
Letter bombs are usually sent through the mail addressed to a specific individual in the company, usually
disguised to look like some sort of gift or a small package. Letter bombs have the power to kill or maim
anyone close to them if they go off. Letter bombs are usually a large size manila envelope ¼” to ½” thick
and are fairly rigid. They have been mailed from cities or small towns in the United States, as well as from
foreign countries. They are usually mailed to a person by title, such as Chairman, President, Manager,
Security Officer, etc.
If a letter is suspected to be a letter bomb:
Clear everyone out of the area for at least 25 feet around it.
Notify the police at 911 and Building Management at 808-524-4188.
DO NOT HANDLE IT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEACTIVATE IT YOURSELF!
Emergency Procedures: Civil Disturbance
Should a riot or civil disturbance start outside the Building, the security guards will immediately lock all
entrances to the building. The police will be notified. We will keep you informed.
If a disturbance should occur in the main lobby, all elevators will be turned off at the first floor and the police
will be summoned.
Emergency Procedures: Earthquake
Before an Earthquake
Plan your course of action before an earthquake occurs. Employees should establish an out of state
telephone contact and make sure family members can act independently for at least 72 hours.
Store essential emergency supplies such as food, water, first-aid kit, radio, and batteries. Enough
supplies should be stored to support every employee for a minimum of 72 hours.
Secure objects such as files, office equipment, bookshelves and other potentially dangerous objects.
Be familiar with your immediate work area and floor plan. This will help you react effectively when it
is necessary to find the closest and safest shelter point.
During an Earthquake
Get under a sturdy table or desk and hold on or move towards the center of the building. The building
core is the strongest part of the structure.
Keep your back to all glass objects if you cannot avoid them completely.
Be aware of falling debris. Cover your head as much as possible.
Do not panic. A clear mind will help you through the dilemma.
After the Earthquake
Remain calm and stay in your area (unless any emergency dictates otherwise).
Look for injured people and administer first aid where needed.
Barricade hazardous areas to prevent other persons from accessing a dangerous area.
Use telephones for emergencies only.
Be alert for aftershocks. Their intensity can produce further damage. Respond to the aftershock as
though it is the original earthquake.
Check your food and water supplies.
Building Security will attempt to contact tenants via the public address system to advise on building
and local conditions.
Evacuation
Normally, it is not recommended to evacuate a building after an earthquake. Outside one may
experience falling glass from the buildings.
However, if an evacuation is required, use the stairs. Do not use the elevators. Walk down at a
steady pace. Do not run.
If you are outside when an earthquake occurs
Immediately find the safest cover, perhaps an alcove, a doorway, a parking garage or a building.
Stay away from storefront windows. The primary danger is from falling debris, particularly glass.
Stay under cover as aftershocks may cause further damage.
Emergency Procedures: Elevator Malfunction
In the event that an elevator stops with passengers in it, remember to remain calm. Pressing the
emergency telephone button within the cab will automatically call the Security office who will send out a
technician to assist in removing the passengers from the elevator.
In the event of a power outage, please remain calm. Should an outage occur, elevator lights will remain on.
Pressing the emergency telephone button within the cab will automatically call the Security office who will
send out a technician to assist in removing the passengers from the elevator.
All elevators function on a Fireman’s Return System, which automatically returns the elevators to the main
floor without stopping when smoke is detected in the elevator lobby. IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE,
ELEVATORS MUST NOT BE USED FOR EVACUATION. USE THE STAIRWELLS.
Emergency Procedures: Emergency Contacts
Please keep in mind whether your phone system requires an additional digit to access an outside line (for
example: 9-911).

Emergency Procedures: Evacuation
If it becomes necessary to evacuate a floor or floors due to a large fire or a great amount of smoke,
the items below are of extreme importance.
Keep calm; do not panic.
Do not attempt to use the passenger or freight elevators. The elevators will be removed from service
or will be rendered inoperable by the building’s “Fire Life Safety” system or will be under the Fire
Department’s control.
Use the exit stairwells. Enter the stairwells and proceed to evacuate the building to the ground floor.
The exit stairwells are the safest evacuation routes for all office tower personnel. Remember, in case
of fire, and evacuation becomes necessary, do not attempt to utilize the elevators.
Walk rapidly; do not run.
Before opening any doors, feel the door and, if it is hot, do not open it.
If possible, close all doors, as this will slow the spread of the fire.
If you are caught in smoke, take short breaths; breathe through your nose. Crawl along the floor; the
air is cooler. If forced to make a dash through smoke or flames, hold your breath.
Do not go back for personal belongings.
The building's designated evacuation area or "Safe Place" is Fort Street Mall or you should evacuate
at least 200 yards away from the building.
Emergency Procedures: Fire and Life Safety
Fire Safety Director:
Douglas Emmett has developed a comprehensive Fire/Life Safety Emergency Preparedness Plan
that includes fire, explosion, bomb threats, medical emergencies and earthquake preparedness. The
Building Management Office will schedule training sessions for you and your employees to familiarize
you with the plan. The Building Manager is currently designated as the Fire Safety Director.
The following elements represent the major aspects of the Harbor Court Emergency Preparedness
Plan.
Instruct all building occupants on the procedures to be followed in the event of fire,
earthquake, or other emergencies, including evacuation procedures. Documentation of
occupant instruction shall be maintained.
Appoint Floor Wardens on each floor with alternates, who will assist in emergency
evacuation procedures.
Conduct annual fire drills.
Maintain a list of disabled persons located within the building who would require
assistance during emergency evacuation.
Floor Wardens:
There should be appointed at least one Floor Warden for each floor. If there are multiple tenants on a floor,
one person in each firm should be appointed as a Floor Warden to oversee their space.
The responsibilities of the Assistant or Alternate Floor Wardens are as follows:
Coordinate with the Fire Safety Director the training of all alternates, assistants, stairwell monitors,
and any other team member designated.
Coordinate the evacuation drills for their particular floor in conjunction with the Fire Safety Director.
Oversee the safe and orderly evacuation of a particular floor in case of an actual emergency.
Be responsible to check that all persons have left a floor in an evacuation, using the “Final Search
Pattern” method taught in initial training and provide a “Status Report” to the Fire Safety Director.
Check strobe lights and speakers on the designated floor for proper operation during fire drills and
report any malfunctions.
Assistant Floor Wardens:
Assistant or Alternate Floor Wardens Responsibilities:
A complete understanding of the Floor Warden’s responsibility.
Assisting the Floor Warden during an evacuation to see that all persons have been evacuated from
their suite or floor.
Being ready to assume the Floor Warden’s responsibilities in his or her absence or injury.
Stairwell Monitors:
There will be two stairwell monitors on each floor. From a multi-tenant floor, these monitors may come from
any suite, but will be responsible to the Floor Warden.
When alerted, take up assigned position at a stairwell to assist in the evacuation of occupants.
Hold door open and remind entrants of the proper stairwell safety procedures and make sure the door is
completely closed upon leaving.
Stairwell Safety Instruction for Building Evacuees:
Move quickly; do not run.
Remove high-heeled shoes if necessary.
Do not bring liquid items (coffee, soda, etc.), as they create slipping hazards
Use handrails, moving to the right when emergency crews are encountered.
Allow room for others, but do not unnecessarily hold up travel.
Allow no smoking.
Dispel all faulty information and rumors.
Assist those who are slower moving or disabled.
Treat all injured evacuees at stairwell landings unless to do so would be life threatening.
Fire & Explosion:
Any person discovering fire or smoke should immediately call 911 and then proceed in the following manner:
Activate one of the manual fire alarm stations located in the building. Manual fire alarm stations are
installed on each floor in the passenger and freight elevator lobby areas and adjacent to both fire exit
stairwells. Once the station is activated, the fire alarms, located throughout the floor, will sound off to
notify other personnel on the floor that a fire condition exists.
Call the Security Office at (808)541-4385 and report the location of the fire and what is burning. Notify
the Building Management Office, telephone (808) 524-4188. After-hours or when the Building
Management Office is closed, the fire department will be automatically notified by our alarm monitor.
Return to the fire area and do as much with available firefighting equipment as possible. There are
Class “ABC” dry chemical fire extinguishers located in wall panel boxes throughout the floor. Attempt
actions without placing yourself or others in jeopardy of harm or injury.
If you feel that you are in danger, evacuate the building.
Upon arrival, the Fire Department will take charge of extinguishing the fire.
Emergency Procedures: Flooding
If possible, remove all desktop items and close file drawers to limit damage.
Engineers will turn off the water source and shut down electrical power as required.
Emergency Procedures: Medical Emergency
Building Management is prepared to respond to medical emergencies in the following manner:
In the event that an accident or illness of an employee or visitor takes place in your office area:
1. Call Emergency at 911.
2. Give Emergency Dispatcher the following information:
a. Your name
b. Building name and address
c. Floor number and location of emergency on floor
d. Any details of accident or illness
3. Do not move injured/ill person. Try to make them as comfortable as possible.
4. Whenever possible, have someone meet the emergency unit in the lobby.
5. Call the Building Management Office at (808) 524-4188 or Security at 536-0136.
Inform them you have called 911 and briefly describe the nature of the emergency.
6. The emergency unit will be with you shortly and will administer necessary medical assistance.
7. Determine, if possible:
a. Name, address and age of injured/ill person
b. Nature of problem
c. Allergies and if currently on any medication
d. Local doctor
The Management, Engineering and Security staff will do all we can to make the person comfortable while
awaiting the arrival of the medical rescue team. Although we assume no liability for our assistance, we
strongly encourage Tenants and employees to become familiar with First Aid and how and when to contact
emergency services.
Emergency Procedures: Power Failure
Remain calm and in place. Notify building Management at (808) 524-4188 or (808) 541-4385.
Turn on battery-powered radio to find out what is happening in area.
Unplug all electrical equipment, movie projectors, TV sets, computers, audiovisual equipment and turn off
light switches unless needed. When power returns it may be in a surge and blow out light bulbs and other
equipment.
Open window shades as it will provide natural lighting.
If evacuation is necessary, use flashlights or light sticks to evacuate to your designated area.
Emergency Procedures: Severe Weather
When severe weather conditions become apparent, the U.S. Weather Bureau describes conditions by two
(2) classifications, a Watch or a Warning. This applies to the reporting of severe thunderstorms, the
approach of weather conditions favoring the formation of tornadoes, a hurricane condition, a winter storm
condition, etc. A Watch becomes effective when atmospheric conditions are right to produce the particular
weather phenomenon. A Warning means that the weather condition has been spotted and prompt action
must be taken for safety.
Except in very rare circumstances, the decision to evacuate the building based on the above weather
reports will not be made by Building Management, but rather by each Tenant Company. However, in the
event these conditions do exist, the following guidelines should be kept in mind:
Move away from outside windows. If the windows in your offices are supplied with blinds, close the
blinds (this will provide protection from broken glass).
Do not panic.
If evacuated, lock all desk drawers and take all items of value with you.
If evacuated, use a route that is in the building interior and stay away from large expanses of glass
and windows.
Use the stairwells rather than the elevators.
If evacuated, do not return to your office until advised to do so.
Emergency Procedures: Toxic Hazards
If there is a toxic spill or exposure, immediately get to an area where you are not exposed and call 911.
Give building address, floor and phone number, and also what type of spill. Take action to contain the
hazard; close doors behind you, and always follow all safety procedures when working with toxic materials.
