Urgent request for translation

Hi all,

I just found this notice posted on the main entrance to my apartment block.
Unfortunately, my German's not good enough to be sure what it means - would someone be so kind as to translate it into English for me?

Harsha

And for OS X users, the same translation engine used by Babelfish is available from Sherlock. This has the advantage of larger windows for the text and preserves the paragraph spacing. It also remembers which languages you selected last time you ran it.
