Tips on TV remotes and screened patios?

[Frank Borzen]

I am sure many of you have crossed these bridges before:

How do you keep track of TV remotes? We constantly have guests misplacing them, losing them, putting them in the wrong rooms. Very frustrating and I do not know what to do besides wire them to furniture.

We are in Florida and screened porches are like gold. The issue is that the screens are constantly being poked out and damaged. We are required to have our door handles up high and kids are constantly jumping up and punching the screens while trying to open the door.

Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated.

I install all TCL Roku TVs in my STRs.  I label all the remotes.   In some rooms I have remote holders mounted on the wall where it makes it obvious that is where the remotes belong.  My cleaners also check to make sure all my remotes are in place as well.  Again, the labeling on the remotes help.  

Sticking with TCL Roku TVs ensures that the bedroom remote will also work in the living room if the battery dies. They are also super cheap to replace with 3rd party TCL remotes, so I keep several extra at each STR.

Can't help you with the screen though...
