For Fairlane's contribution: be sure to reverse the flags.

The proper display for the american flag has the canton at flag's own right, which is the viewer's left. Thus the flag 'flips' down for vertical hanging, it is not rotated.

Same thing goes for hanging the texan flag, white stripe goes on the left, not right. It's confusing as hell when you see it at first, but it's in the flag code for both flags. Also, the 'flip not rotate' rule serves as a helpful mnemonic.

Additionally, you might want to swap the positions of the texan and national flag. Flag code generally asks for the national flag to hang on flag's own right (observer left), relative to a state flag. But then again, none of the exact stipulations of the flag code cover two flags hung vertically, flanking a door.
