Genie Wall Mount Garage Door Openers with Battery Backup | GEN-6170H-B
Genie's Model 6170H-B features our wall-mount design, the integrated Aladdin Connect, plus a battery backup. This garage door opener eliminates the traditional rail & powerhead design by attaching directly to the garage door’s spring tube. Eliminating the rail & opener from the ceiling brings a clean and open look to your garage. Enjoy the view or use the freed-up space for storage or other purposes. This is ideal for garages with beam obstructions that prevent the installation of a traditional opener. The compact design fits into tight side room spaces.
