contents We reduce the problem of proving decay estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear PDEs to proving analogous estimates for solutions of one-dimensional ordinary differential inequalities. Our machinery allow the ellipticity to vanish near the boundary and permits general, possibly unbounded, lower-order terms. A key consequence is the derivation of boundary Harnack inequalities for a broad class of fully nonlinear, nonhomogeneous equations near $C^{1,1}$-boundaries. In combination with $C^{1,α}$-estimates, we also obtain that quotients of positive vanishing solutions are Hölder continuous near $C^{1,1}$-boundaries.This result applies to a wide family of fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic PDEs; and for $p(x)$-harmonic functions and planar $\infty$-harmonic functions near locally flat boundaries. We end by deriving some Phragmén-Lindelöf-type corollaries in unbounded domains.
