Overview

  • Laser beam tells you where to park your car
  • Quick and easy installation
  • Motion sensor activates the laser when your vehicle enters the garage
  • Helps avoid dings and scratches on your car

Essential Info

How many times have you pulled into your garage and parked too close to the wall? You open your door and smack, now you have a ding or a scratch. How frustrating! Each of those dings and dents takes hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars off the value of your car.

The Smarthome Laser Garage Parking System is an inexpensive and easy solution to this common problem. Available in a single laser (for one car garages) or dual laser (for two car garages) models, the Laser Garage Parking System helps you identify the perfect parking spot in your garage each and every time you pull in by simply tracking the laser beam until it hits a pre-selected spot on your dash or hood. The easy-to-install Laser Garage Parking System mounts on your garage ceiling and projects a bright red laser beam toward the garage floor. As your car enters the garage, a motion detector triggers the laser beam to project onto your car's hood and continues toward the dashboard. You determine the ideal parking spot and match that with where the laser beam projects onto your car.

What's Included

  • Mounting bracket
  • Screws
  • Double-stick tape
  • AC adapter

  • More Info

    The Smarthome Laser Parking System's motion sensor detects when your car enters the garage. It triggers the laser to shine from the ceiling mounted unit to a predetermined spot. Once you pull your car to that spot, you know you've safely parked in the correct location of your garage. Easy installation with all mounting hardware included. Can be power by either the included AC adapter or a 9V battery, sold separately.

    Please use caution when installing. The housing is made from plastic which can be cracked when accessing the battery box (open carefully). Product usage is dependent on motion; therefore it is not recommended to power the item via battery if your garage is a high traffic area. Frequent motion detection will cause the battery to lose power quickly.

    Unit will only operate a few days with a 9V battery!! A power cord is included for plug in operation.

    ROBERT -- mount juliet, TN   4/6/2012
    The smarthome parking system works very well, and I am please with it. I bought two single systems rather than one duel after reading reviews stating that the duel system did not cover a two car garage well. I had previously purchased and installed one of the "traffic light" parking systems. It did not work well at all. I found it to be extremely inaccurate and unreliable. It had a range of error of about two feet: not acceptable in a garage parking situation. I returned that device and purchased the Smarthome laser system. The motion sensor is accurate and gives me ample time to get into position. The laser light is bright and highly visible. Installation was easy. I did not use the hook & loop fasteners since my garage ceiling is a rough texture. However, the device is very lightweight and the hook & loop attachments should do quite well on a smooth ceiling. Care must be taken when installing with the screws as proper positioning is a must. The device does not swivel left to right: only fore and aft. I got mine installed correctly, but this could be a problem. Also, the screw holes in the mounting base were not countersunk enough for the provided screws. I had to enlarge the countersink to accommodate the screw heads. Not a big problem, but.... The laser head is not snug in the housing making adjustment a little sloppy. I had to add some tape to the head in order to make it hold its position. That was a little annoying. I would think that the adjustment should stay put, but the laser head is way too sloppy. Again, not a major problem. I was lead to understand that the device would work on either a 9-volt battery or on AC power. In fact it does, but the 9-volt battery only lasted a few days. I now assume it is for back-up only. I had to go ahead and use the AC adapter and power cord. Again, this is not a big deal, but now I have two ugly power cords and an extension cord running across my garage ceiling. I'm pleased with the devices and would recommend them to others.

    Works great!
    EDWARD -- bonsall, CA   3/18/2012
    This product is advertised as battery-powered. So far, I have put 2 new batteries into this system And each has lasted on average approximately 7 days. I'm trying it one more time with the new battery. If I do not see a significant improvement in the life of the battery, I will be sending it back to you.

    Great product at a good price & fast shipping & delivery into Australia.
    FRANK -- mesa, AZ   2/18/2012
    Worked very good at my other house for 8 years and I'm installing it in my new house. Why try something different when I know this one works. I just wish it was adjustable side to side.

    Received item quicky! Thank you!
    BRYAN -- sarasota, FL   12/31/2011
    it doesn't work at all
    Scott T -- chicago, IL   11/7/2011
    Longevity note: I purchased three of the units over 6 years ago. all three are working fine, no issues. Aside from what the other reviewer said on the swivel capability dual versus single We haven't had an issue with the laser timing out too early it can, but we must enter the garage too hot/fast to notice. on my recommendation, family and friends have purchased 15 more units...I haven't heard of one failing yet. Highly recommended...much better than a suspended tennis ball.
    J. Curtner -- Laguna Niguel   10/26/2011
    Great item. Easy to install and get working right away. Laser is bright and motion sensitivity is excellent. Only 2 minor items of note. 1 laser has fixed length on time after motion is no longer detected and if you are going very slow toward final stopping point it can turn off before you are completely in place. You just have to create noticable motion for it to turn back on. 2 unlike dual car laser detector, the laser in this product is fixed to forward and back motion only for aiming. The dual car detector has a swivel mount which allows to specific laser pointing to some pointon your car. Other than that the items are great and my customer loves it.
