“The photos below are a great example of the importance of keeping bedroom doors closed while sleeping.”
“The door pictured in both photos is a hollow core door to a bedroom. While the front of the door is severely damaged the closed-door protected the bedroom and its contents.”

“The first picture is the hallway and the second is from inside the room!”
