Garage Door Accessories

The garage door is the most important piece of the garage, and one that marks the style of the garage. With great styles to choose from, a home owner can increase their home’s curb appeal by just changing the garage door. But working in the back ground are many garage door accessories, that make our lives easier.

The remote garage door opener is one that has been around for a while, but that has made opening and closing the garage manually, obsolete. The days of tugging and pulling a heavy wooden garage door open is a thing of the past. Now with keypads mounted on the wall of the garage and remote devices in our vehicles, we never have to touch the garage door again.

But technology never ceases and today we have other garage door accessories that replace old methods in a big way. Remember the tennis ball hanging on a string in our garage, that helped us pull in and park not too close to the wall? Well with laser parking guiding assistants, we can use the ball for tennis or to play fetch with our dog instead. A red circle appears on the dashboard, telling you when to stop.

Battery backup systems, work in conjunction with your automatic garage door opener for when the power goes out. These battery backup systems can power the garage door opener through several cycles until electrical power is restored, then it automatically recharges itself to be ready for the next possible outage.

Other garage door accessories that are making a big hit are garage monitoring systems that can tell you if your garage door is open. A beep and a flash on a receive base in the home can alert you to an open garage door. The AutoCloser is another great accessory that automatically closes the garage door at a pre-determined time that you set – between two and 20 minutes. If you leave the garage door open by mistake, the garage door will automatically close at the time you designate.
