Genie

Genie products are one of the top, well-known garage door operators and accessories brands. The company was founded as the Alliance Manufacturing Company in 1923 and became established as a solid manufacturer of industrial, consumer, and military products, including voltage regulators, fuse caps, generators, and many other related products.

As the company expanded its line of products, focusing on high-quality, dependable service, it produced its first garage door opener in 1954 and became known as Genie. Genie has since mass-produced many radio-controlled garage door openers for residential homes while becoming a world leader in safety, design, and reliability in the industry.

The company’s engineers developed the first direct-drive screw opener in 1958 while continually improving and refining other innovative products, including the split rail, which was introduced into the market in the 1970s, becoming widely available through retailers.

Genie products are popular among customers investing in products in the do-it-yourself industry while expanding its line of products to include home appliances for the home and office in 1985.

In 1994, Genie joined forces with the Overhead Door Corporation, which purchased Genie products while continuing to expand and offer a wide line of products through local and worldwide retailers. These retailers include hardware stores, home centers, wholesalers, and professional distributors.

Genie products consistently focus on and maintain excellent quality, innovation, and service. It’s a popular brand among homeowners, who can buy Genie’s products from local retailers or online.

In recent years, Genie incorporated advanced technology into garage door openers, which include Intellicode, 140-volt DC motor remote access, and the ability to change security codes every time a transmitter is activated, with billions of combinations, and a Safe-T-Bean infrared system that detects objects in the entranceway’s path using sensors, to improve safe access.

The company is well-established as a top manufacturer in the industry for a wide range of security products and appliances for homeowners and small businesses.
