ABSTRACT:
A circuit for controlling an electrically operated garage door comprising a manually operated switch disposed within the garage. By actuating the manually operated switch twice within a prescribed period of time, the garage door is either opened or closed depending on its state. For automatically closing the garage door, a tape switch is disposed on the garage floor in the vicinity of a garage door. The tape switch extends across the garage floor in a direction to be actuated by the front and rear wheels of the vehicle. When a vehicle leaves the garage or has entered the garage, the successive actuations of the tape switch by two sets of wheels complete an operating circuit to close the garage door. The garage door is also opened by the manual operation of a digit selecting switch and a digit sequencing switch which are located outside of the garage. A preselected code is stored in a code circuit by a set of presettable mechanical switches representing the respective digits of the code. The digit selecting switch and the digit sequencing switch are operated to present various digits for comparison with the digits of the preselected code. Should the digits presented by the digit selection switch match the digits of the presented code, the garage door will open.
