You can tape the 2 pieces together so that they are always "seeing" each other and put them up on top of the opener connected to their proper wires on the opener. I did this with mine and it works fine. I was totaly sick of them getting bumped out of alignment so now they are up by the opener on short wires. They say children are killed by doors coming down on their neck, so if you do this educate your kids about door safety.

MORRIS is on track for a correcton. Don't do it!!!!!. The day will come when someone or someones pet is gonna get hurt. Wait till it comes down on your car. Dents the hood then the opener self distructs and ruins the garage door. While your at it why don't bypass all you'r circuit breakers. I bet your tired of them tripping once and a while. Oh, and disable your smoke alarms. I,m sure you don't want your sleep disturbed by that shrill noise.

I would think there are at least a couple of ways you can work around the beam. Try connecting the wires that go to the beam to send the signal back to the main unit. This would be the same as the beam always "seeing" itself. Another thing you can try is to place the beam up high, so nothing would break the beam. A third suggestion would be to connect the reflector to the beam (or tape it over the beam) so that it would always reflect back the beam and show a clear path.

No, I don't think so. The safety system sucks; it works great until the lasers are misaligned. And then it's a real pain to get them focused back on each other. If you do find a way to eliminate it, let me know. Thanks!
