I understand the landlord must give the tenant 24 hour notice to view the unit. Subsequently, if the landlord is serving the N4 or N8 notice, does he also have to give 24 hour notice to let the tenant know he is coming or can he knock on the door?

In order to serve the tenant with notices such as the N4 and N8, you do not have to give a 24 hour written notice since you’re not entering the rental unit. It is ok to go there and knock on the door and serve the notices if they answer. If the tenant does not answer the door, you can slide the notices under the door or place them in the mailbox.
