Remote Control Door Openers

Remote Control Door Openers

 

Protected entryways, opting to use levers instead of knobs, or even keyless entry systems that are operated by a touch, are the first steps to take to assure easy access into your house. 

 

An automatic door opener is another good option. These devices attach to your existing door and automatically open, close, lock or unlock your door by means of a remote control system or a touch pad. Devices are available that include a hold-open setting to allow you time to get safely through your doorway. Turn garages or utility rooms into well lighted and organized areas where everything from car to lawn care equipment can be stored in a safe easy to access environment.  Install automatic door openers and keyless dead bolts to open entryways in your home. Remember to update lighting near entrances to come on automatically to eliminate shadowed areas, and rework thresholds so that they are no higher than ΒΌ inch.

 

If limited hand or arm strength is an issue an automatic door opener can make life easier for you. An automatic garage door opener can make it easier for you to get in and out of your garage. Special features like keyless entry systems can provide secure access without the need for keys, and electronic sensors can prevent people or pets from being crushed by the heavy door.

 

Garage door openers are available in keychain versions, visor clip-on units or touchpad systems. The three basic models are chain-drive, belt drives, and screw drives. The chain-drive is the most common but it is noisier than the more expensive models.
