An emergency key release lets you manually open or lift the garage door from the outside when you can’t use the remote, such as during a power failure or outage.
The emergency key release is great if you don’t have other ways of getting into the garage other than through the garage door.
The emergency keyplate kit contains the following:
The keyplate is normally mounted flush at the top of the garage door above eye level.
The rope or cable is attached to the back of the keylock at one end, and to the disengagement handle of the garage door opener.
When the door needs to be manually opened during an emergency, you just turn the key, which pulls the lock cylinder out of the barrel.
This pulls on the rope/cable to disengage the opener, which in turn opens the garage door manually.
