    I just want to say that you are a legend. Lifesaver. I come back home at midnight there is no electricity. so I open the garage door and when I close it, I realize it wouldn’t be lock. When I Google it your video come out straight away. Lucky that I got a clamp. Thank you again or else I won’t be able to sleep tonight.

    6 years later and want to say thank you. My apartment garage broke so I'm waiting for them to fix it and have been worried about the stuff in my garage and the door to my apartment.
    I just used a real cheap metal 4 inch c clamp from Amazon and it works great.

    I have looked at so many videos today. Thank you for this common sense and straight to the point video. Now still trying to figure out why the garage opener is not working...

    So glad I came across this. Padlocks wouldn't fit in my runner holes and the garage door service man was no help. He actually told me my manual lock mechanism was broken. But I don't have a manual lock mechanism... Never using that guy again. Came across this video and it is crazy simple. Picked up a pair of C clamps today so I'm all set.

    SAVED MY LIVE with this nugget. It's below zero and the springs broke. I live in a bad area so I thought I was gonna have to drill a hole on the track for a lock while freezing 🥶 my 🍑. Few seconds and DONE ✅. VERY EFFECTIVE. THANK YOU 👌

    Ah, the joys of city livin', lol. Good way to lock the door, tho. You can even use a regular vice grip too. Anything that clamps tight and gets in the way of the roller. Heck, dropping a big bolt through that slide lock opening would slow people down.

    Thanks! Very helpful. I'm wondering how secure are garage door openers from intruders? Is there a manual way to further secure them when you are away for extended periods of time? ie Would the C clamp or something similar to the job if someone was to hack the garage door code and try and open it? Thanks.

    The reason for the suggestion to unplug the opener is a Safety Precaution.

    And if you don't just happen to have a big ole clamp thingie lying around your house?

    • @cattaylor9451
      @cattaylor9451 2 роки тому

      It’s a $6 clamp --get it at Harbor Freight for a few bucks or the big box stores for a few bucks more. Easy.

      Wedge a block of wood in one of the rectangular openings in the rail.

      I had to watch the vid a couple of times to see that he had a vice grip thingie on the table....I have one of those and it worked just like the clamp. Too bad he didn't demonstrate how to use the vice grip thingie too.

    no I was not drunk I was perfectly normal cuz I don't drink alcohol more like like you do where's my I said this because one you don't need to unplug the motor just to disengage it that's partly stupid so I'm pretty sure you the one that was drunk that when you were reading this

  • @jimhaynes8781
    @jimhaynes8781 7 років тому
