    Slightly off subject, but the remote for my pickup would set off my neighbors car alarm when I pushed one of the unused buttons on my remote. Since I don't like the guy anyways, I used to set his alarm off every chance I got until he finally just disabled it.

    1. you must have a quiet door to not hear it open.
    2. my alarm is tied to all exterior doors/windows including garage door. when it goes off without me expecting it, shits gonna hit the fan.

    my new alarm system is awesome, has automation built in. i can turn on/off lights, open garage door, control HVAC, set rules, control everything from my phone, etc.

    and no its not brinks/adt crap... they are the worst company to go with.

    here is a preview (not me) of the same system. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUYrY6XnGZ4

    easy, the door was probably 300 vs say 1200 for a nice 10' door. Dumb, but builders are cheap, and get paid again to put in a bigger header, bigger opening, cleanup the edges, etc.

    Yeah, the door is wood and was supposed to have been painted a light color, according to the instructions on the sticker on the back. My next house I'm totally going to design and build out of ICF.
