Abstract: A bracket which can be secured to a track for a garage door for mounting an IR receiver/sender to the track and need not be screwed to the framing around the door opening or bolted into the garage floor includes a main web portion with a right angle lip portion attached at one side and a serpentine-shaped spring member attached adjacent to the other side of the web and bent down so as to face the opposite lip member. An IR mounting extension member extends from the side of the web with the spring member with the IR mounting member extending at right angles to the web and in a direction opposite from the spring member and lip member. Retention of the bracket to the track is achieved by the effect of spring loading of the bracket on the exterior of the track, which is snap fit between the serpentine member and the lip portion.
