HOA, homeowner at odds over security door - Houston Chronicle
Babineaux said he appealed to the homeowners association, which, at that time, told him to take whatever precautions he deemed necessary to protect his home. So, the METRO bus driver had wrought-iron security doors installed on the front and rear entrances of his house. The metal barrier facing the street also has a tinted background panel.
"When I found out they were breaking in and doing things, I hurried up and had these doors built," Babineaux said, adding that the job cost him about $1,200. "These two doors have saved me. I love these doors. I can sleep good at night."
But recently, a new regime at the HOA has told him to remove the fortification from the front of his home.
