Debbie Reed Broker Associate (970) 209-1396 As a child, the most often heard phrase... in my life was, "don't let the screen door slam"! The screen doors of today are often a glass/screen combo with a soft, slow close. Those old ones were made of wood with hinges that snapped closed so fast you had to make sure your little fingers weren't still wrapped around the edge of the door! The minute that door slammed, every adult within hearing distance, whether related to you or not, yelled the same thing! It was as if that slam was tap dancing on their very last nerves, on those hot summer days. I later read that the decibel level of a bunch of crickets is 100 decibels. A slammed screen door comes in at a surprisingly high 80 decibels. No wonder adults were kind of cranky by the end of the summer!
