     DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
     With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 10 thereof, a new electronic door control and light embodying the principles and concepts of the present invention and generally designated by the reference numeral  10  will be described. 
     As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 10, the electronic door control and light  10  generally comprises at least one light  12  designed for positioning proximate a door  2  of a structure  4 . A control panel assembly  20  is operationally coupled to the light  12  for selectively operating the light  12 . 
     A door latch assembly  30  is designed for coupling to the structure  4  proximate a bolt  6  of the door  2 . The door latch assembly  30  is operationally coupled to the control panel assembly  20  for selectively unlocking and opening the door  2 . The door latch assembly  30  includes a latch member  32  selectively positionable between a retracted position, wherein the latch member  32  is positioned to permit free movement of the door  2  while the bolt  6  is extended, and an extended position, wherein the latch member  32  is positioned adjacent to the bolt  6  when the door  2  is in a closed position. Thus, the door  2  is prevented from opening when the bolt  6  of the door is extended from the door and the latch member  32  is in the extended position. 
     The door latch assembly  30  further includes a door jarring device  34  designed for pushing the door  2  open when the latch member  32  is in the open position. The door jarring device  34  includes a main member  36  slidably inserted through a bracket  38 . The bracket  38  is designed for coupling to the structure  4  proximate the door  2 . The door jarring device  34  also includes a biasing member  40  operationally coupled to the main member  36  for biasing the main member  36  towards the door  2  such that the main member  36  abuts the door  2  and the biasing member  40  is in a compressed position when the door  2  is in a closed position. Thus, the door  2  is urged into an open position by the door jarring device  34  when the latch member  32  is in the retracted position. 
     In an embodiment, the door jarring device  34  includes an adjuster knob  75  for adjusting the length of extension of the main member  36 . Thus, the degree of push provided by the door jarring device  34  is adjustable to permit full opening of the door  2  or no jarring of the door  2  as desired by the user. 
     A main switch  44  is included in the control panel assembly  20  for actuating the latch member  32  and the light  12 . 
     A light interrupt switch  46  is also provided in the control panel assembly  20  for selectively preventing turning on of the light  12  when the main switch is activated. A latch member interrupt switch  48  is also provided for selectively preventing actuation of the latch member  32  when the main switch is activated. Thus, the user may selectively activate either of or both the light  12  and latch member  32 . In an embodiment, the light interrupt switch  46  and latch member interrupt switch  48  are each positioned on a front face  14  of a housing  16  of the control panel assembly  20 . Additionally, a main interrupt switch  75  is provided with a removable key  76  for selectively deactivating the control panel assembly. 
     A push button  50  is provided and operationally coupled to the main switch  44  for facilitating manual lighting and opening of door  2 . 
     In an embodiment, a remote control unit  60  is included. The remote control unit includes a button  65  for operating a transmitter  62  for transmitting an activation signal. A receiver  64  is provided in the control panel assembly  20  for receiving the activation signal whereby the main switch  44  is activated. The remote unit  60  includes a unit locking mechanism  66  having a removable key  68  for selectively activating and deactivating the remote unit  60  for preventing unauthorized use of the remote unit  60 . The remote unit  60  may be integrally incorporated into a vehicle or may comprise a hand held unit similar to a garage door opener. In an embodiment, the remote control unit  60  includes a button  67  for opening of a garage door. 
     The control panel assembly  20  further includes a panel door  21  for covering the front face  14  of the housing  16 . A panel door locking mechanism  23  is provided for selectively locking the panel door  21  in a closed position for preventing unauthorized access to the front face  14  of the housing  16 . The panel door  21  also includes an indicator light aperture  29  and the control panel assembly  20  includes an indicator light  27  positioned proximate the indicator light aperture  29  such that the indicator light  27  is visible through the indicator light aperture  29 . The indicator light  27  is actuated when the main switch  44  is activated. 
     The panel door  21  also includes a picture holding assembly  70  for holding a picture  5  whereby the panel door  21  resembles a picture frame. The picture holding assembly  70  is for facilitating disguising of the control panel assembly  20 . The indicator light  27  may be incorporated into the push button  50  and extended out of the picture or picture holding assembly  70  to permit manual activation of the main switch  44  without opening the panel door  21  or removing the picture  5  from the picture holding assembly  70 . 
     A timer  25  is provided for deactivating the light  12  a predetermined period of time after actuation of the light  12 . 
     In an embodiment a second light  13  is provided. Light  12  is designed for positioning on an exterior of the structure  4  and the second light  13  is designed for positioning in an interior of the structure  4  for providing light proximate the interior and exterior of the door  2  of the structure  4 . 
     In an embodiment, the control panel assembly  20  is also connected to a speaker  73  for emitting an audible sound upon actuation of the main switch  44 . 
     In an embodiment, a code generator  77  is incorporated into the control panel assembly  20  as an added security measure. The code generator generates a changing code and provides that code to the remote control unit to actuate the main switch. Thus, operation of the control panel by another control unit is discouraged. 
     In use, the latch assembly is positioned to interact with the bolt of the door and at least one light is positioned near the door. 
     Upon pressing of the push button to activate the main switch or activation of the main switch using a remote control unit, the door is opened and the light is turned on. Thus, the door and light can be operated from a remote location prior to picking up items, the carrying of which might otherwise make manual operation of the doorknob and light switch difficult. 
     As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided. 
     With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention. 
     Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
