Abstract
A garage door locking system that includes a single actuator locking box that integrates with existing garage door openers to form a system that is easy to install and that can not only open and close the garage door, but provide a sequential locking/unlocking function. The actuator utilizes a rack and pinion gear that moves the locking bar in a horizontal position to lock or unlock. A lighted indication LED extends from the system to the outside of the garage door so that the locked state of the door can be seen from the outside. The actuator box utilizes LED lights that light up to show proper alignment of the magnet mounted on the track Specialized clips both tie down the power cords from the actuator box and provide a magnetic activation that indicates to the CPU to move the bar to lock and also indicate the door position at all times.
