Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the STB sensor bracket do?
A: The STB bracket mounts the safety beam or photocell sensor to the garage door track or door jamb at the correct height, ensuring the infrared beam is properly aligned across the door opening to detect obstructions.
Q: Which Genie sensor types is this bracket compatible with?
A: This bracket is compatible with Genie Series II STB (Safety Beam) sensors and older-style Genie photocell sensors that share the same mounting footprint.
Q: When should the sensor mounting bracket be replaced?
A: If the existing bracket is bent, broken, or corroded, or if the sensor cannot be properly aligned due to bracket damage, the bracket should be replaced to restore correct sensor operation.
Q: Is this bracket sold as a pair or individually?
A: The bracket is sold individually. If you need brackets for both the sending and receiving sensors, you will need to order two units.
Q: How is the safety beam bracket installed?
A: The bracket typically clips or bolts to the vertical door track or mounts to the door jamb near floor level. The sensor is then attached to the bracket and the beam is aligned with the sensor on the opposite side of the door opening.
