This door actually saved their house from burning to the ground. The fire department said this is a metal, fire proof door and it contained the explosion. They said if it had been a regular door, it would have burned through and the whole house would have burned to the ground.
Just some smoke damage...
These are outlets upstairs. All of the electric burned, so every outlet in the house looked like this. The cable outlet is actually where Joel first spotted the smoke.
This is the floor above the garage. You can see where the fire was trying to make it up through the floor.

Oh Beth!!! I am so sorry. How is everyone doing? I meant to call yesterday...and then the day got away from me. I am sorry! But know that you guys have been in my prayers several times a day!!!!
Everyone is fine. Thank you for your prayers. Hopefully, they will get a rental house soon.
That is so terrible! Amazing though nobody was hurt & that they even got the guinea pig out safely. The story of the metal door is enough to make me want to install nothing BUT those doors in our future house!
Yes...the first thing my brother said when we got to the house was "Don't worry, they saved Wilson"
Yes, the door did the job it was created for.
