Key Release

Releases an automated door from outside during a power failure.

What it does

The key release lets you disengage the motor and open the door by hand from outside. On a door with no other outside access it is the difference between getting your car out during an outage and not.

Signs it needs replacing

  • The release cable stretched or slack
  • The key turning without releasing the motor
  • A release that will not re-engage

Fitting notes

Fitted on automated doors, most often where the garage has no separate side entrance. The Eazy Lift Mark II carries a battery backup, so the key release is the second line rather than the first.
