Road trip, this was between Lampasas and Killeen TX. Raining so hard the wipers couldn't keep up and water was ponding on the highway. I saw several vehicles that had hydroplaned off the road. Traffic abruptly went from 80 to 40 mph

Not sure what yahoo originally installed this but... 🙄 It was have issues and the maintenance guy took it apart to lube it. When he reinstalled it, it was misaligned and wouldn't work. He called us. I moved it up about an eighth of an inch and it works good now. The buttons are getting spongy so I'm going back to install a new combination chamber in it

Got a new van this week. 2023 Chevy Express 2500. Matilda, a 2015 Ford T250 Transit has over 292k miles, and is an old lady now. She wearing out. It was time to upgrade. I'm neither a Chevy or Ford guy, I go with best available option at the time. This time it was a new Express.

The manager said something along the lines of "like Jesus Christ, you resurrected it". I replied "more like Dr. Frankenstein, but either way it's alive again" 🧟

North Dallas- West bound in the I-635 Texpress lanes. The express lanes run underneath the regular interstate/freeway I-635 Anyways, a rock of some type flew over (I think) from the eastbound lanes. It could have came from the freeway above as well, I'm not sure. I don't know how fast the rock was coming at me but I was going 75-80 MPH. I saw a glimpse of something that looked to be between a golf ball and baseball size when it hit... It sounded like a fekkin' gun went off in the van. When I got home I reviewed the dash cam video and it didn't sound as loud on video, I was going so fast I can't see the rock on the video. The damage is slightly larger than the palm of my hand. Guess I'll be calling my insurance agent Monday morning. I'm really amazing it didn't go through the windshield 🤯

Found this atrocious hack job on two office doors. I replaced the levers. The manager was pissed at the security company that installed the strikes. Said they were withholding payment until they come back and fix it... I'd have been pissed too... Actually I got pissed for them when I saw it 😬

A handyman contractor tried to replace the push paddle. He spent all day fucking with it and had it 9 kinds of backwards until he gave up and called us. I had the new paddle on and working good in about 20 minutes.

The strike plate caught my attention. Very unique design. This was on offices in an office building. A prefab design, the doors could swing either in or out depending how the strike was installed.

First time seeing a DormaKaba PowerPlex in the wild. No batteries to change, it's self powering. Turning the lever generates it's power

I replaced all of these locker locks last year. An employee quit and did not return the keys. I picked it, removed it, made a key and rotated it with another empty locker down the hall and around the corner.
2023-07-07 22:16:28 +0000 UTC View PostI rekeyed this suite door in a business park last week. Property manager called yesterday and said the new tenant reported the key isn't working. It was close by so I stopped in to check it out. Apparently the painters taped the thumb turn down. I found it to be working great 🤷♂️

There was $44,976.00 in there. As soon as the door swung they cleaned it out before I could get a pic of the greenbacks. S&G 4350 SD Lock The nose puller was useless. Had to get brutal with it. Ended up punching the bolt. I was concerned about a relocker but there was none.
