The Overhead Door® Emergency Battery Backup accessory offers homeowners the security of always being prepared if severe weather causes a power outage. These accessories have easy installation and can be purchased already integrated with a new garage door opener or added to an existing garage door opener.

What is an emergency battery backup garage door opener?

• It is a garage door opener with an external or integrated power supply, independent from your home’s power.
• Emergency battery backup garage door openers allow you to keep using your garage door in the event of a power outage.

Advantages of an emergency battery backup:

• Security — One of the biggest advantages that comes with an emergency battery backup system (external or integrated with your garage door opener) is peace of mind. You know that in the event of a power outage you will be able to easily get your car(s) and family safely in and out of your garage.
• Easy operation — In the case of an emergency, the last thing you need to worry about is manually disengaging your garage door. If you have an emergency battery backup installed, just push the button and go.
• Safety and security – An emergency battery backup ensures that your garage door is locked during a power outage. You will no longer need to leave the garage door unlocked during an outage.
• Extended lifetime and easy maintenance — Most emergency battery backup systems go 3+ years without maintenance. Once your system is installed, it charges through your garage door opener, so there is no fuel to maintain or additional parts to worry about.
• Variety of models for your home — If you want a new garage door opener with an integrated battery backup or want to add an external system to an existing garage door opener, Overhead Door ® and OverheadDoorPartsOnline.com will have an option that will work for you and your home.
• Adaptive opening capabilities — To conserve power your garage door will open and close at a slower rate, and any light on your opener will remain off during a power outage. But the adaptations allow for up to 50 door openings and closings in a 24-hour period.
