ABSTRACT:
An elongated, electrically conductive, inwardly protruding hollow channel defining an interior chamber is mounted to the lower edge of a one-piece garage door. Mounted within the chamber is a contact strip extending longitudinally along the channel and disposed below the center line thereof such that deflection interiorly of the wall of the channel upon contact with an obstructing object will cause it to engage the contact strip. The channel is optionally mounted to a base perpendicularly extending away from the plane of the door to provide early warning of a contact with an obstructing object.
