SOUTH PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A South Philadelphia condo building is boosting security after a resident was robbed at gunpoint.

Crews fixed a broken door at the Marine Club, a day after Action News showed you it could be opened without a key fob.

We uncovered that problem after two robbers followed a woman into the parking garage through a different gate.

The suspects threatened a security guard before stealing the woman's bag and cell phone.

The building's owner is now trying to reassure everyone who lives there.

"I've ordered a guard to be there until I'm satisfied that it's repaired and safe. Both locations are under camera and go to our live 24/7 security," said building owner Eric Blumenfeld.

Police are still looking for both robbery suspects.
