If you come up short on R-Value you can add insulation where possible; rims could get R21 fiberglass.Essentially you can compensate for a lack of R-value in one area by putting additional insulation else where; you're looking for the total U-value of the the entire envelope.Although more costly, I prefer metal framing.

Hey Guys,Are there any tips or tricks to painting a metal entrance door.

If you rip out all the bad drywall and the damaged pipes, wiring and any other damaged metal, do you have a starting point to rebuild?

Mini splits have a warmer coil so they don't wring as much moisture out of the air.

What about a metal security door?  

@Chris Baxter thanks, I see some of them have resistance of more then 30 minutes.Do you know if they typically require the metal frame to be changed as well?

Most assets in self direction are hard assets-real estate, a note with real estate as collateral, ownership or interest in a private placement, physical precious metals, all of which are hard to dispose of by the Ira company and would raise flags fairly quickly.

I am just not sure how it will look after the roofers install metal coping etc there, or they would be careful about "aesthetic" details :)Exterior/wood is also deteriorating, but I guess a painter can scrape the old paint and caulk for waterproofing.

I think the metal detectors would still serve a separate purpose.

Gold and other precious metal scenarios are far from assured from working.
