<div dir="ltr">How about small sensors that can be attached to the front of the track (edge facing outside)? These are much smaller than what I have (I had to build a little wood house around my sensor because the kids (5 year olds) kept knocking them out of alignment). <br><a href="http://store.preferreddoorservice.com/linear-hae00002-garage-door-opener-safety-beam-sensors?utm_source=google_shopping&gclid=CLa3osSF9NECFZCCswodq0EC_g">http://store.preferreddoorservice.com/linear-hae00002-garage-door-opener-safety-beam-sensors?utm_source=google_shopping&gclid=CLa3osSF9NECFZCCswodq0EC_g</a><br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 1, 2017 at 11:04 PM, Steve Hammatt, Mount Vernon WA USA <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gsteve@hammatt.com" target="_blank">gsteve@hammatt.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<div>The problem is we’re expanding the old two car garage into </div>
<div>a 2k sqft shop and parking for antique and daily drivers. One </div>
<div>of the three new garage doors is located very near a front </div>
<div>corner of the garage, the corner turns 90 degrees and immediately
</div>
<div>there’s an inward opening man-door with the hinge near the same </div>
<div>corner mentioned above.</div>
<div>Hope this description has helped and here’s the problem:</div>
<div>The standard laser (IR?) sensor is mounted near floor level intrudes </div>
<div>upon the swing of the man-door.</div>
<div><img alt="Image result for garage door sensor"></div>
<div>This photo is a generic shot of the items I’m talking about.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My question is: How do I maximize the door opening of the </div>
<div>man-door. Can I do away with the sensor entirely (the garage </div>
<div>door has an automatic bounce back control if it hits any sort of </div>
<div>obstruction)? Is there some sort of new style of sensor that may be
</div>
<div>better?</div>
<div>Super thanks.</div>
