Does this work for automatic sliding door? It seems that the reviews are for manual doors.

It should work for the automatic doors. The door handle is the same. Once you pull the lever it pulls a cable which in turn tells the mechanism to open the door. I have one automatic door on out Sienna, the one I replaced was on the other side (non automatic). But I pulled both panels out to see how the automatic door mechanism works - I was trying to fix it. - the handles look identical. I recommend you purchase it and replace it.

Should work on any door that has a momentary switch for opening and closing. It comes with remote.

Yes it should work automatically. Mine did, you may have gotten the wrong version or gotten a faulty one.

Hi,Straps can go through either the window or door opening I guess. I always put them through the door and then close the doors on them. Not sure how it would work with sliding doors.

Being that this lock is made for doors with a slide-bar on both sides that lock into slots in the track I don't see how this would work. I just replaced my old door with a new one and now have the same side slide you have and it doesn't look like this lock is compatible.

I know it worked on my 2001 manual doors. Don't know about power sliders though.

Hi Nancy,It actually works with the dip switches you currently have in your receiver. I have 2 doors and it operates both. All you have to do is mount it and you're done! Example: your dip switches are slate to ON using 1468. Your code to open the door would be 8641 START. It's that easy! Truly happy with this purchase. Hope this helps.

I had no problem with the fit in a sliding glass door, but just a note... I purchased two locks of this brand (slightly different models) and both eventually literally exploded out of the door while attempting to pull the key back out after locking. I wouldn't recommend it.

Depends how old is your Genie opener. Most likely it should, if your system is ON/OFF logic triggered (practically all wall button openers). But it may not, if your old opener operates as open/close circuit (i.e. like light switch - VERY old systems).

Yes, the way it mounts onto the door takes into account the side, so both sides take the same part. The sliding doors both use the same part, and its interchangeable.

While it may 'fit' in the opening, it will not be secure enough with the tension resting on the sliding door (the door on the one side will not be wide enough to hold the tension 'rings' on the end of the screws). I would not advise using this for a sliding door. They do make models that do fit sliding doors though - http://www.amazon.com/Cardinal-Gates-Lock-n-Block-Sliding-24-Inches/dp/B003TFEF3G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1398872451&sr=8-2&keywords=Cardinal+Gates+Lock-N-Block+Sliding+Door+Gate - try that link.

Yes . . . It's designed for a swinging gate or door and will NOT work on a sliding door. Perfect for a pool area door.

Yes it does slide out when you open the door. It's a bit awkward but it does work.

I don't think so. It's wide enough to obstruct the sliding door from opening. I wouldn't try it.

Yes it does. A sliding or French door will work too if you are willing to do some adjustments.

This unit is set up to use on a swinging gate, I don't think there would be any way to use it on a sliding gate as the throw on the arm would be way to short to open anything more than about a 3 foot gate.

If your door is of a regular size and thickness, this will work. It's sized for standard US doors, some adjustments can be made for how inset from the side of the door the doorknob is, but only a limited amount (basically covering the most common offsets). The same goes for the thickness of the door, it's somewhat adjustable, but not for anything that varies too much thicker or thinner from a standard house door.
