3 Must Have Smart Garage Door Openers

Genie 3120

This smart garage door opener is made by Genie, a company that has made millions of quality garage door openers since 1954. Using their Aladdin Connect® Integrated WiFi connectivity technology, you can use the time-based feature to automatically open/close your garage door at a specific time, as well as set up multiple users to have virtual key access to your garage door. You can also open your garage door from anywhere using your smart device, and the tracking function will let you know the date and time of each operation of your garage door.

 

Key Features:

  • GenieSense™ Monitoring: diagnostic technology that improves safety by stopping operation when significant changes occur

  • Smart Lighting: included on each side of the powerhead to help light up your garage

  • Intellicode® Access Security System: prevents the use of unauthorized remotes to open your door

  • Dependability: each Genie 3120 comes with a 15-year Limited Warranty

Liftmaster 8500W

This smart garage door opener is designed to optimize space with Liftmaster’s most advanced wall-mount. The MyQ® Technology enables compatibility with multiple home automation platforms and the built-in WiFi allows you to receive alerts and control your garage door from anywhere using the app. You can also program your garage to automatically close after a preset amount of time, and the automatic deadbolt lock makes this garage door virtually impenetrable. And in the event of a power outage, the integrated battery backup will ensure your opener still works.

 

Key Features:

  • The Protector System®: auto-reverses the door if there’s any obstruction

  • MyQ Remote LED Light: provides bright and maintenance-free illumination
