Common Questions
29 totalWhat is the warranty coverage for the Model 2128?
The Model 2128 is backed by a 10-Year Limited Warranty for the motor and a 15-Year Limited Warranty for the belt drive rail. If you have the chain drive rail version, it carries a 5-Year Limited Warranty. Note that the warranty is limited and non-transferable. (Page 1)
What is the Soft Start and Stop feature on the Model 2128?
Soft Start and Stop Control is a DC technology feature that allows the garage door to begin and end its movement smoothly rather than abruptly. This results in less noise during operation and reduced wear and tear on the garage door over time. (Pages 1–2)
How does the Safe-T-Beam reversing system work?
The Safe-T-Beam Non-Contact Reversing System uses an infrared beam that, when interrupted by an object, causes the garage door to automatically stop closing and reverse to the open position. Importantly, the door does not need to make physical contact with the object to trigger the reversal. (Page 2)
What is the Intellicode Access Security System and how does it protect my garage?
The Intellicode Access Security System prevents unauthorized remotes from opening your garage door by selecting a new code from billions of combinations each time the opener is operated. This means thieves cannot capture and reuse your opener's signal to gain access. (Page 2)
Can I control the Model 2128 remotely with my smartphone?
Yes, the Model 2128 has integrated Aladdin Connect Wi-Fi connectivity that allows you to remotely monitor and control your garage door from almost anywhere using a smart device. The Aladdin Connect app also supports time-based features, scheduling, and multiple individual user accounts for shared access. (Page 2)
What is the Sure-Lock feature and how do I use it?
Sure-Lock is a security feature that allows you to lock out remote controls and wireless keypads at any time, making it useful when you are away from home, such as on vacation. It is also referred to as a vacation lock. (Page 2)

|IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS| |---| |WARNING!| |To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, read and follow all instructions.
1. NEVERlet children operate or play with the door controls.
2. Keep remote away from children.
3. ALWAYS keep the moving door in sight and away from people and objects until door is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4. NEVERGO UNDER A STOPPED, PARTIALLY OPEN DOOR.
5. Test opener monthly. The door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2” high object (or 2” x 4” board laid flat) at the center of the doorway on the floor. After adjusting either the force or limit of travel, retest door opener. Failure to adjust the opener properly may cause severe injury or death.
6. When possible, use emergency release only when door is closed. Use caution when using this release with the door open. Weak or broken springs are capable of increasing the rate of door closing and increasing the risk of severe injury or death.
7. KEEP DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See your garage door Owner’s Manual. An improperly balanced door increases the risk of severe injury or death. Have a trained door system technician make repairs to cables, spring assemblies, and other hardware.

####### Automatic Garage Door Opener Safety & Maintenance Guide Garage Door Opener Safety - An Automatic Decision
|WARNING!| |---| |A garage door is the largest moving object in the home. An improperly adjusted garage door and opener can exert deadly force when the door closes – which could lead to entrapment of children or adults and subsequent injury or death.|
Proper installation, operation, maintenance, and testing of the garage door and automatic opener are necessary to provide a safe, trouble-free system. Careless operation or allowing children to play with or use garage door opener controls are also dangerous situations that can lead to tragic results. A few simple precautions can protect your family and friends from potential harm. Please review the safety and maintenance tips in this guide carefully and keep it for reference. Check the operation of your garage door and opener to ensure they function in a safe and trouble-free manner. Be sure to read all Important Safety Information found in your garage door opener’s manual as it provides more details and safety considerations than can be supplied with this guide.
Garage Door Openers are Not Toys Discuss garage door and opener safety with your children. Explain the danger of being trapped under the door.

Stay away from a moving door. The wall-mounted push button should be out of reach of children, at least 5 feet from the nearest standing surface and away from all moving parts. Mount and use the button where you can clearly see the closing garage door.

Keep transmitters and remote controls out of reach of children. Do not let children play with or use transmitters or other remote control devices.
Keep the door in sight until it completely closes when using the wall-mounted push button or transmitter.

####### Routine Maintenance Can Prevent Tragedies
Make monthly inspection and testing of your garage door and opener system a part of your regular routine. Review your owner’s manual for both the door and door opener. If you don’t have the owner’s manuals, contact the manufacturer(s) and request a copy for your specific model(s). Look for the opener model number on the back of the power unit.
|WARNING!| |---| |Springs are under high tension. Do not loosen or adjust any bottom brackets, red colored fasteners, cables, or supports. Only trained door system technicians should adjust these components.|
|Visually check the door and installation:
• Starting with the door in the closed position, use the manual disconnect on the opener to disconnect the door.
• Look for signs of wear or damage on hinges, rollers, springs, and door panels.
• These parts may require periodic lubrication. Check the owner’s manual for suggested maintenance.
• If any signs of damage are evident, contact a trained door systems technician for assistance.
• Verify the photo eye height is no higher than 6” from the garage floor.
|| |---|---| |Test the door for proper operation:
• Open and close the door manually using handles or suitable gripping points.
• The door should move freely and without difficulty.
• The door should balance and stay partially open 3–4 feet above the floor.
• If you detect any signs of improper operation, contact a trained door systems technician for assistance.
|| |Test the opener safety features:
• Reconnect the opener to the door using the manual disconnect and open the door.
• Place a 2x4 board flat in the path of the door
(1) and try to close it (2). The door should stop when it comes in contact with the 2x4 and then reverse direction.
• Block the photoelectric sensor by waving an object in front of the sensor and attempt to close the door. The door should not close unless the wall-mounted push button is manually held during operation.
• If the opener does not perform as described, contact a trained door systems technician for assistance.
