Garage Door Opener... - SV650.org

05-05-05, 08:03 AM

Hey,

I am greatful and thankful that I have a garage to store the bike in over night, winters, etc. It is a double car garage and one of the doors is automatic. Now, I used to carry the remote in my pocket until I had an accident fiddeling with it. I have read/heard that you can integrate one into your 'Pass' trigger/button? Has anyone done this? Or knows where I can get one? Also, is the wiring basic? I don't want it to be too difficult for me. Thanks for your help in advance,

Mitch

I think most people's garages in the UK are of the keep fit type, i.e manual.
Auto opening is more of a lazy US thing.

So stop being so lazy and get off your bike and open the door

Seriously, I have no idea, maybe someone on svrider.com might have a solution.

Hey,

Thanks. Yeah I mean it doesn't take much to get off the bike and walk around, but you know. If it's only a few bucks I'd go for something like that. I think you right about garage in the UK, so I will ask SVRider and someother North American websites. Thanks,

Mitch

Or Streethawk... ooooooh.

*shudders*

On a side note to this Datatool are bringing out the Fortress 3 soon.
Unlike the Fortress 1 & 2 which are ground anchors, this is a garage door anchor!

It's designed to the kind of up-and-over garage door that is less secure anyway - a locking roll-bar kinda thing which prevents the door being moved even if the door's lock has been busted open.

Not sure on price yet - I'll let folks know when I do.
