Essential Info

How many times have you been gripped with the sudden realization that you may have forgotten to close your garage door? It's a pretty common mistake, but it can be a costly one, since that open expanse can be an enticing lure to thieves. Make sure the largest door to your home is closed securely with the automatic Garage Door Closer, which triggers your garage door opener automatically after a user-specified amount of time if left open.

What's Included

  • Wall console
  • Garage sensor
  • Mounting tape
  • Instructions
  • Mounting screws
  • Connecting wire
  • 3-volt lithium battery
  • More Info


    Mount the sensor on your garage door using the included mounting tape or screws. When the door is closed, the detection rod is retracted; when the door is open, the detection rod is extended and sends a wireless signal to the wall console, which in turn triggers your garage door opener to shut the door. Planning to work in the garage for a while? A single button press locks the receiver so it won't close when you don't want it to.

    Since it has a built-in antenna, the included wall console can accept commands sent by a keychain remote, sold separately. The wall console's learning function makes connection easy.

    Working great so far! Very easy to install. Works great with my cats, when they unexpectedly walk in or out of the garage, the door raises like it should, and then closes again on its own. The beeping lets you know when it is going to close.
    ROBERT -- oakland, CA   10/4/2010
    Description fails to state the device will not work with all garage door openers and may need an external power supply. Had to return.
    DENNIS -- union beach, NJ   4/8/2010
    WORKED FOR 4 DAYS-THEN STARTED (OPENING) GARAGE DOOR AFTER I CLOSED IT AND LEFT HOUSE-RECEIVED CALL FROM NEIGBOR STARTING DOOR WAS OPEN---NG
    NOBU -- denver, CO   2/25/2008
    I had problems with my item so I contacted smarthome who handled the return with no problem. However, All I really wanted was someone to trouble shoot the product. They couldn't do that and wound up returning it for another. I'm currently at square one, you had to send a replacment and nothing was resolved. As far as customer service on the return, A+++++
    STEVEN J -- englewood, CO   1/13/2008
    Product unreliable and vulnerable to false activation signals and manufacturer provides limited support.
    KENNETH -- sandy hook, CT   1/6/2008
    The item was very easy to install. I put one on both garage doors. I sometimes have a problem where the door keeps opening and closing multiple times before finally closing.
    RICK -- santa moncia, CA   1/2/2008
    Horrible, this is the second one and it is being returned. Instead of automatically closing the garage door it opens the garage door. NUTS
    ROBERT -- carefree, AZ   11/19/2007
    Bought two units. One for each door. One would only work if the garage was empty. The other worked fine except it would open the door after it was closed.
    JEFF -- temecula, CA   10/23/2007
    THis is the second one of these units I have bought in less than two months- the first died and I just thought it easier to buy another and the second one died after only two weeks. I opened the unit and sure enough there was a big black burned area on the circuit board where a chip fried itself. They clearly don't have these things engineered correctly and must not have the amperage correct to one component. Very bad since this thing is suppose to be the security to keep the garage door closed. I called the company and they just said return it to your company -- no repair or exchange service. Also it's very slow to react when you push the button to open and close the garage there is a big delay before it seems to send out the signal to close the garage -- very frustrating even when it's not dead-- great product idea but very poorly executed. Also they include a note detailing a change in the operation of the buttons which is very confusing --
    ROBERT -- everett, WA   10/23/2007
    The receiver unit did not function out of the box. I sent back the unit and got a refund but I had to eat the excessive $10 shipping charge. I should have read the other reviews on this product before ordering it. Many people have been sent defective units.
    CURTIS -- pensacola, FL   10/4/2007
    I took a chance at buying this product and was disappointed. It only close the door sometimes and each time you set the closing time, it causes the car remote to unset itself. The alarm blinks ok, but its not loud enough to here even if you are in the garage. (keep shopping for a better product)
    ANTHONY -- chicago, IL   9/12/2007
    Haven't been able to make this thing work yet. Very basic instructions for what I thought would be basic setup.
    Dan -- san diego, CA   4/13/2010
    Mine worked for a month then started opening and closing the garage door while I was at work. Worthless.
    Robert Weil -- san diego, CA   2/29/2008
    Had a problem with the first unit. Smarthome replaced it promptly. The new unit has been in use for 1 year, and works flawlessly. I wouldn''t be without it. It was very easy to install.
    Mal -- Charlotte   1/18/2008
    Bought two units, had trouble with one and exchanged it. Both have worked fine for the past year or more. Recommending to a friend, but will point out all the negative reviews as well.
    p crosby -- san francisco, california   10/21/2007
    Unreliable product. The first one stopped working a few months after we bought it. I returned it to SmartHome and re-bought another unit but that one doesn't work at all. What good is a door closer that can't be counted on to close a door? This product is unusable. Smarthome should stop offering this until the manufacturer can improve its quality control. Extremely disappointing. It is going back.
    PATRICIA -- chicago, IL   8/6/2007
    This was a replacement order for a (possibly) defective item. The new item also did not function. But I don't blame Smarthome. You guys were great in RMA and customer service.
    JOHN -- san francisco, CA   8/4/2007
    The instructions did not have any reference for four wire systems. When I pulled my existing Genie unit off the wall, there were four wires attached. The directions offered a number of two wire connection options, but none for four. Also, when I open the garage door from upstairs using my existing Genie remote control, the door opens just fine. However, when I get into my car and drive out of the garage, then close the door using the remote control feature programmed in my car, the door closes but does not deactivate the unit's automatic timer. Sure enough, a couple of minutes later, after I'm long gone, the garage door opens automatically. In order to remedy this problem, I have to make sure that I tap the door closer button before getting into my car and driving off. This manual deactivation is inconvenient, but unless I want my garage door to automatically open after I've departed for work, I have no choice. I look forward to your suggestions. Thank you.
    JAMES -- thomaston, CT   8/1/2007
    Great product...highly recommended.
    Jay -- studio city, California   7/24/2007
    ... To add to my previous review .... In my attempts to get the unit(s) to work, I also contacted the manufacturer several times. They instructed me to buy a 12v transformer, which I did. The unit still did not work properly. I then thought the two pieces might be too far apart (16 feet), so I moved the transponder closer (9 feet), it still did not work properly. The manufacturer's help was dismall - they could only suggest a 12v transformer, else send the unit back to them. Fortunately, Smarthome has an excellent customer service department and return policy. They even gave me free shipping on my next order. I will continue to buy from Smarthome - after 3 different units failed I simply DO NOT RECOMMEND this product.
