Quiet Without the Smart Price Tag

Not every buyer needs Wi-Fi control, app notifications, and battery backup. For buyers who want to eliminate chain-drive noise without paying for smart features they will never use, the Genie 2055 is the honest answer. Belt-drive quiet, reliable motor, done.

The included two remotes and keypad mean most buyers have everything they need in the box without add-on purchases.

If you want to add smart control later, Genie's Aladdin Connect is a separate add-on that works with this unit.
