Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday, with 24-hour giveaways just for you!

Have you ever wondered if you remembered to close the garage door? Or have you ever worried about the safety of your garage door? If so, then the Genie SilentMax 1000 garage door opener and its many new safety features will offer you peace of mind.
Not only does the SilentMax 1000 provide intelligent design for the homeowner that wants quiet performance with superior design and conveniences, it also offers some pretty amazing safety features like a comprehensive Safe-T-Beam system that meets or exceeds CSA regulations, an auto reversing system that prevents it from closing if something is in the way, and a superior encryption system that automatically changes the access code every time you use it to prevent unauthorized persons from opening your garage door.
The Genie SilentMax 1000 is so simple to install that my husband was able to put it up without assistance in about an hour. I have to say it definitely lives up to its name — it’s the quietest garage door opener I’ve ever heard (or not heard in this case). I was in the house and had no idea he was already testing it out!

I love the keypad entry system because it means I don’t have to carry bulky keys with me when I go for a walk or to the park, and it’s also great for those rare occasions when the kids beat me home from school. They just punch in our PIN number, and can let themselves into the house.

One of my favorite features is the optional Network Adapter. It’s easy to get distracted when pulling out of the driveway with a carload of kids, so this handy little feature tells me at a glance whether or not I’ve remembered to shut the garage door. The Network Adapter remote will beep and flash green when closed properly or give a warning tone and flash read when not closed properly.
Today, one lucky Deal Seeking Mom winner will win a Genie Silent Max 1000 Garage Door Opener prize pack that includes:
- One SilentMax 1000 Garage Door Opener
- Closed Confirm 3-button Remote and Network Adapter Combo

I always worry that someone could just drive around and open the door. With this one it is not likely since the code changes with every opening.

I worry it won’t close completely.

My biggest safety concern with my garage door is closing while something or someone is in the way. Mine is old and doesn’t have the safety eye on it.

Wow…. what a blessing this would be. My biggest fear is the door not getting closed when someone comes in the house. With teens going in and out from there, I have to check it and re-check it, as well as have my husband double check it. ( I know he gets tired of my anxiety over this) But living on a busy road just outside the city, I am fearful of someone coming in or taking things from the garage. Not to mention animals that could wreak havoc. 2 days after moving in, I’d unknowingly left the garage door open. The next morning when exiting the kitchen I opened the door to a raccoon staring at me!! No wonder I’m so paranoid about it!

I’m afraid that it doesn’t close all the way and I think it did.

my biggest safety concern with garage doors is one closing on one of my dogs. I would be totally devastated
