The Safety Features of Genie Products

Safety means being able to avoid accidents and this is a huge subject when it comes to electric garage door openers. With so many accidents still happening every year, it's certainly no wonder why people are interested to ensure that their new openers will meet at least the minimum safety standards. Having great experience in the field, “Garage Door Repair Oxnard” can assure you that great manufacturers, like Genie, never make the mistake to disregard such matters. On the contrary, one of the main characteristics of the Genie electric openers is the sensing devices.

Our company gives emphasis on such matters as well. Our focus during garage door opener maintenance is to ensure that the entrapment devices work properly and the sensors are tested and aligned. We don't leave such matters to chance, and neither does Genie. The company remains loyal to all guidelines set by UL 325 and in fact makes efforts to enhance the current sensing system with innovative, extra devices.

Safety with Genie openers and our services

All Genie electric operators have a safe T-beam system. This non-contact reversing system will provide perfect safety for people and will definitely save your car from scratches and damage. The second the safety beams are interrupted by an object, a cat or a person, they will stop the door and reverse its movement automatically to its full open position. The Genie system provides extra safety since the T-beams will also stop and reverse the door upon contact. So, if the cat decides to pass under the overhead door at the last minute, you can be sure that it will make it through unharmed.

Based on the official regulations, the Genie openers also have a timer reverse system. This system ensures the opening of the door if it's not closed within thirty seconds. This might signify that the limit switch of the opener might need adjustment but in any case it will be helpful to know that something is wrong with the system. In similar events, our company must be notified once for garage door repair. The Genie sensing system will stop and reverse the door at all instances including when it encounters an obstruction.

Genie has recently introduced a special retro-reflective photo eye, which is especially designed for the commercial openers. This is wired only on one side and works with the polarized reflector on the other side. It's an additional way of ensuring the safety of employees and goods and surely an innovative idea. Most definitely, issues related with any sensing device must be fixed immediately and you can be sure of the expertise of our technicians. If the green light of the sensors doesn't remain lit and the door keeps reversing, don't hesitate to contact our company for immediate repairs. We are experienced and respond fast!
