Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Fantastic concept. An inexpensive piece of mind. But i hope it stays where it should. Goes on where advertised.

All they have to do is poke a hanger or hook in the top to release the garage door disconnect latch. Easy to install.



Cons

The bracket that holds the shield is paper thin. The “brace” holding this to the j-arms is low-grade soft plastic that cracked and split apart as soon as i put minimal pressure on it by tightening the thumb screw, exactly as instructed.

I'm an architect, so poor design bothers me. It is not metal, and it is very flimsy. Even the screws are plastic. I feel like this should be more robust (like metal) and i'd pay more for it.

From start to finish this product was a disappointment.

Quality


I installed it anyway and was quite pleased with the fit and it seems strong enough to actually work


This works only with the t type track without modifications


Someone posted a link to this product

Price


If it was made out of metal i could understand the price

Competitiveness


You can’t beat the security your getting for the price of the unit


Not all garage doors are the same so it takes some mental gymnastics of how it is to work

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The thumb screw was to short to secure the shield to my skinny j bar


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I then contacted the company’s customer service line


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After cutting a notch out of a corner of the shield it then went past my shelf brackets just fine


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A bit upsetting that some couldn’t figure this one out


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For both doors this took me about a total of 5 minutes to install


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I’m not sure why anyone would have a hard time installing this
