Just about everyone needs a Butler - a Garage Butler! The Garage Butler is a device that will automatically close your garage door when you forget. You can NOW have peace of mind knowing that you NEVER have to worry about leaving it open ever again. Have you ever left your home wondering whether or not you remembered to close the garage door? If you can answer yes to that question then the Garage ButlerTM is the product for you. The Garage Butler is a patented automatic garage door closer that can be set to a timer with 6 options to automatically close your garage in the event it is left open. The timer options you can set are 3, 10, 20, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. Once the Garage Butler recognizes that your garage door has been open the specified amount of time it will start an audible 30 second countdown timer to alert that it will be closing. If you are nearby and wish to keep the garage open you can bypass the timer by pushing in a hold button or simply turn the Garage Butler off via its manual on/off switch. The Garage Butler can also be programmed to stay open during the day if you are performing a task requiring it to stay open such as cleaning out the garage or hosting a garage sale. This device also come equipped with a light sensor that acts as a failsafe and will automatically close the garage door when it becomes dark outside. The Garage Butler will work with all manufacturers and attaches to any mechanism with a working open/close button. When installing the unit you only need to use the provided double sided mounting tape leaving you without having to drill any holes. This auto-closer comes with a UL approved power supply.

Works very well! Beeping is LOUD.
I ordered this one when our original gave up the ghost after several years of good service. It works just fine. For those of you who are annoyed by appliances-gadgets that beep, holy crap stay AWAY from a garage Butler. I can feel the beeping in my fillings!! Even with duct tape over the speaker.*but* it works great and faithfully and isn’t hard to install. If you’re worried about forgetting that you left the door open, this is a great gadget to have.

Peace of mind for me
I've always had anxiety about remembering to close my garage door, and thankfully the neighbors put up with me calling or texting for them to check on the door for me. Now I don't have to bother with any of that. I have a smartphone, but don't like having a lot of apps and things to check (I refuse to become addicted to my phone), so I needed something that would work itself without needing to be constantly connected- same reason I used "old" monitors for my kids instead of the video monitors. My main complaint is the super loud beeping when it's about to close, but I took another reviewer's suggestion of adding a piece of duct tape over the speaker and that helped tremendously. My husband had no complaints about installation. Been working as intended for a couple months now, does drive my dog crazy when he hears the door close but nobody is here, haha. A worthy investment for me.

Work well, easy to hook up.
This is my third one of these I have bought. They are nice units with the ability to set closing delay times among 6 different lengths of time, a hold button if you want to suspend auto closing until you manually close the door, a manual door open/close button, an on/off switch to suspend closing until you reactivate it, and an easy hook up if you already have a door closing button nearby. This unit essentially replaces a door closing button. I have had 2 units for over a year without problems. I would suggest you install the door sensors high up on the door where the rail is still parallel to the door as you will not bump/bend the sensors when moving things in and out of the garage.

Did you really send me a used device ?
I thought it was a brand new product... but not so much. Open the box the cables were all bunched up and the double sided glue is still on the device. Seriously !
