Infinity Shield Garage Door Sensor

[godfodder0901]

There are 3d printable parking aids. If you don't have a printer, a service could print you one for just a few bucks - probably within spitting distance of the original $9 price.

This is just like the Park Ranger linked:

Same function as what? The first link is a virtual carbon copy of the Park Ranger parking aid previously available on Amazon.

Yes, and I was replying to a person who said another parking aid was no longer available.

Not available on Amazon anymore so good thing it is still working unless there is another source.

Does this make it impossible to press the close button inside the garage and then walk out before it closes?

I don't think that is possible with this sensor.

Nope, once the door starts moving, any movement between the beams triggers the sensor. I presume you “jump” over the bottom beam sensor on your current door.

The 2 primary use cases for me are that that this device prevents the door from closing and hitting the back of the vehicle whether it’s too close to the entrance or the hatch is left open (Happened to me on my last SUV). As well as giving an audible beep until the beam has been cleared. This allows me to park as close to the door as possible easily while leaving more space in front for me to get by.
