Park-Zone is an innovative precision-parking device for the home that's easy to use and even easier to install. After a simple one-time setup, the Park-Zone uses its ultrasonic sensing mechanism to measure the distance from your car to the garage wall as you park. When you pull into the garage, you see the green light illuminate, then midway it changes to yellow, and when the light turns red you're right where you want to be. In our book, this beats a tennis ball hanging on a string because it's a lot easier to set up, it's much more precise, and, unlike the tennis ball, it looks good in a garage. Anyone who parks in a small or crowded garage will appreciate the accuracy this gadget offers. The Park-Zone operates on AC power or on batteries that last an entire year. Stop bumping the back wall and get into the Park-Zone. --Brian Trinen ... Read more

Very Useful Device For Safe Garage Parking
I ordered this item, it was delivered very promptly by Amazom.com. It was easy to install, but took longer than 90 seconds, as indicated by the manufacturer. Park-Zone can be installed in any garage, and simply guides you to the exact distance from the wall that you determine. It operates on 4-AA batteries (which are said to power the unit for a year) or the AC adapter included. As you drive into the garage, a green, amber, and red light guides you to the right spot. I'll be ordering 2 more for our other cars !!

It Does Exactly What It's Supposed to Do...

I was skeptical when I first purchased this item because I didn't have any confidence in it's ability to accurately gauge the distance of a bumper to the bumpee (a.k.a. the wall). But, after installing it my confidence was immediately buoyed by the unerring accuracy with which it issues its green-yellow-red sequence.

The setup and installation took about 10 minutes. Anyone can install this thing! The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the provided templates make sure your installation goes easier.

The ONLY complaint I have about this device is the number of wires it leaves exposed. Depending on the distance from an AC outlet, it can be aesthetically unpleasant. There's a wire from the signal light down to the sensor (the wire that's shown in the photo), and then another from the signal light to the AC outlet.

Overall, though, I love the device. And... it works with multiple cars and doesn't seem very sensitive to bumper height.

5 Stars!

park zone car parker
the park zone is a good product but the one that i ordered said i could park my vehicle up to 0.5ft. from the wall the ones that i recieved will only let me get as close as 1.3ft. that is not close enough for me to get it in the garage. i had the old units but i had to replace the batteries about once a month on one of them so i wanted to replace it with one with the ac power outlet i had the model no pzx-9901 i have one more of those and it works great .the new units i have are pz-1500 .
i just tried anothewr way i moved the sensor up to 4ft now i can park as close as i want the sensor hits the winshild now it works perfect.

Parking on a dime
I purchased two units a year ago. One for each of my garage doors. Love 'em both. Have no problems. Work as advertised. Takes the risk out of guessng when to stop my car. And I could take down the stupid tennis ball I have been using for years. Another plus is my wife likes the blinking colors. Go figure. Extreme change in seasonal tempature does not adversly effect the opeation of the units. Still just keep on working.

Don't Do it!
I am very disapointed in mine.
I was expecting it to be very accurate, but it doesn't work if you try to park closer than a foot from the wall.
I have a large vehicle, and I need to get within 6 inches of my wall. This device WILL NOT work with that close of a range.
Also I have been having to reset it alot (maybe because I am pulling up too close.)

I think I'll just keep pulling up until I hear it crunch! ... Read more

I just installed the opener today.Fairly easy to install.I was able to use some of the exisiting hardware from the previous installation so I didn't have to worry about hangers or the wall or door mounts.The settings were pretty close right out of the box for distance and force.This has all the safety features that I was looking for plus it is very quiet.It is below our bedroom so I went with the belt drive.Much quieter than the LiftMaster chain drive it replaced.Besides all the usual bells and whistles that pretty much all the combo sets have (2 openers, rolling code, outside keypad, safety beam eyes) it has a cool feature that lets you add devices from the wall mount so you don't have to get up on a stool or ladder to press the "learn" button on the motor.The 2 100 watt lights are nice and bright.So far no complaints. ...

With the emergence of MP3 players like the iPod, the way you control your music library has changed. Now with thousand of songs to choose from, the ability to control your audio environment is critically important. You should have the freedom to advance tracks, control volume and a variety of other features without traditional space or hardware restrictions. The iJet gives you the control you need to achieve this freedom. In your Home - Control the volume, the selection, fast forward, fast reverse, advance track, back track, pause, from any room in the house. Or for that matter from your backyard or front porch. In your Auto - Control the volume, the selection, fast forward, fast reverse, advance track, back track, SAFELY while driving. Prevent theft and sun damage by keeping your iPod in the glove compartment or trunk while still maintaining control of your iPod music. Key RF Signal Fact You Should Know Each wall that a RF signal must travel through reduces the signal strength by approximately 3db. 3db equals approximately 30 Feet. Why is this important? If you are considering a Wireless Remote that provides a 60-foot range, consider that one wall will reduce the signal to a range that makes your remote relatively ineffective in and around an average size home. The iJet remote offers the greatest RF signal range of any remote made specifically for iPods that are on the market today. ... Read more

Much better than a hanging string.
What can I say other than 'it works great.' Very easy to install and setup. Simply park you car where you want it and press a button -- the park-zone will remember this location and signal you to stop whenever you pull in to that spot again. Took about 4 minutes to hang and setup. Batteries last a long time -- and in a very hot garage, too. I love it.

A "toy" that really works!
My son bought me this more-or-less as a joke, because I had a tennis ball (me) and a small doll (wife) for parking. I put it up and I LOVE IT. I am buying two more (wife and SON). I have had no problems with batteries to date and resetting is easy if you need to do it. If you have a tight fit... try this one.

TOTALLY COOL!
Purchased for my husband for Christmas. I knew he wanted, but I was skeptical (just another toy). I was wrong, sure am glad I got him two!

high battery usage
In two months the product has used 3 sets of batteries.
bought at end of nov. now jan.

This product does a good job!
This device has ended a problem of the correct positioning of my wife's car in the garage. If it was pulled in too far, I couldn't swing the door open on my vehicle without hitting the mirror on her car. If the wife's car was pulled in too far, we couldn't walk around the front of it. We haven't had any problems since we installed this parking device......and it has also eased some tension regarding the position of vehicles in our garage. ... Read more
