Vent: A homeowner in Dayton pointed out my keypad wire run was visible from their kitchen window.

Honestly, I'd been routing that low-voltage wire straight across the basement ceiling joist for years, but seeing it from their perspective made me switch to running it tight along the side, and now I always check the sight lines from the main living areas before I call a job done, anyone else have a simple check they added to their routine?

Why even change what works fine?

That's a solid fix. Makes you wonder what other small details we miss because we're just used to doing things a certain way.

Totally get that. Spent years typing my password wrong because I had caps lock on once and never checked. Felt so dumb when I finally noticed.
