Abstract
The invention provides a control mechanism for opening/unlocking the garage door. In this manner, the Emergency Garage Door Arm Release allows consumers to open their garage door from the outside. A transmitter is a control device installed on the outside of the garage and features a keypad on which the user punches in their security code and then activates the emergency release button. Once activated the Emergency Garage Door Arm Release sends a current to the solenoid which then releases the pin thus allowing the garage door to pop open. Once released, the consumer manually opens or raises the garage door the rest of the way.
