@TwiceHorn, I was going to respond that Texas law requires it but I didn't have the specific code / law.
& If this happens occasionally, you would THINK that breaking a window would be the better option as it will prob. cost $ 150 on the high end vs. $ 500+ for the whole fucking door & jamb / frame / trim to be replaced & repainted.

Paging @C-Man to the Burnt Orange courtesy phone... a Mister "C-Man" to the Burnt Orange courtesy phone.
I ran my Mom's policy through him & he looked @ all the particulars that makes that property unique; came back to tell us that there isn't much better he can do (can write all across Texas) & has also saved lots of other Shaggers over the years.
I appreciate that he didn't try to bullshit the process & sell a lower quality policy for lower price & try to slip that past us. -
Probably 2 or 3x a month there is some kind of issue that has my Mom wanting to go to the AT&T store to have them fix something on her phone.
The latest fuckup is when her phone is set to use the wi-fi wherever she is, the phone's call reception goes to shit. This has been going on for 3 or 4 months now & was a sudden development. & Of course she is always wanting to be just 1 step behind the latest / greatest iPhong technology... would have the iPhong 11 Pro Max if she could afford it.

My door guy is going over today to check it out - apparently the management is cool with us fixing this.
& here is a pic of the frame.
Hell, they wrinkled up the door so badly it caused damage by the center glass.
I know we have @ least 1 or 2 Firefighters in here - howzabout y'all break a window & cost me a lot less $$?
I can bet this will easily be a $ 500 expense by the time it is over & I don't think this is a door that is found via McCoy's or Homer Despot.

Late night work here @ my Mom's senior citizen apartment. The current time here is 2245 hrs. Xmas night as I start this efforting.
She's fat (sorry, Mom... truth bomb) & the supporting MDF / particle board that held her bed (box spring & mattress) finally screamed out "No more! I'd rather die!"
I have some weathered 1×'s on hand & brought those out to fix her up.
Team Red & Black to the rescue.
Mom has a bad L arm / shoulder, bum setup that won't allow her to do anything for herself from that side. She was head down while the foot end of the box / mattress were up. Apparently managed to turn 90⁰ but still couldn't get up on her own.
VERY unfortunately, there is a double deadbolt setup on both the front door & patio access - one deadbolt has a key from the hall side, the top one is only un-lockable from the inside & BOTH of the locks (front & back door) were set.
North Hays Fire / Rescue had to come out (before I got here) & fuck up both the door frame AND the door. I hope the management will allow me to R&R the new setup as this is well within our skillset.
I can bet they will probably charge @ least $ 600 for an R&R.
¡GAH!

Anyone else staying up late so they can hope to sleep in late?
Thinking of feinting a stomach bug or something like that - Christmas with my inlaws is always a beating. I can expect to hear probably 3 anti-democrat slurs & it will be a miracle if the FIL doesn't use the N word @ least once.Trying to not be a shit so my kids won't suffer. Wife always has stupid expectations on trivial bullshit gifts that are useless / duplicates of something she has too much of (jewelry, etc).

I'm 0 for 2 in hooking up these GD sound bars... Halp!
in Can You Help Me With This?
Speaking of Sound Bars, what's a halfassed somewhat OK price point for any brand?
Buddy got a 65" UHD TV but the sound on it sucks.
He's not connected to CATV or satellite - mostly for watching movies (Blu Ray).
Search function sucks; only came up with this thread & a zillion "sound" & "bar" hits.
