The Genie 36444A Sensor Brackets and Hardware is a genuine OEM mounting kit designed for installing or replacing the brackets that hold Genie Safe-T-Beam photoelectric sensors on a garage door opener. It provides the correct mounting interface to secure the sending and receiving photo eyes at the door opening, helping ensure reliable obstruction detection and compliant operation. Use this replacement part when existing brackets are missing, bent, or damaged, or when upgrading an opener’s sensor mounting to a fresh, factory-fit solution. The kit supports common installation methods used on residential Genie garage door openers, including mounting to the vertical door track or to a stable surface near the track, and is suitable for both left and right sensor positions.
Engineered for use with Genie Safe-T-Beam systems found on many Genie Intellicode and newer models, the 36444A bracket set allows proper alignment of the photo eyes so the sensor LEDs remain solid when correctly aimed. No programming is required; simply mount, wire the sensors as directed by the opener’s manual, and align until the indicator lights confirm a clear beam. For best results, install at the typical Safe-T-Beam height near the floor as required by applicable safety standards, disconnect power before servicing, and never bypass the sensors. This OEM bracket and hardware kit is an ideal replacement part for restoring dependable operation, supporting common buyer needs such as sensor repair, track-mount photo eye installation, and compatibility with Genie Safe-T-Beam accessories used in residential applications.
