Filed under: Garage Doors


Man using a mobile phone in restaurant, cafe,barHave you ever left your house, and then wondered later in the day, “Did I let the dog out? Did I turn off the oven? Did I lower the garage door?” It’s normal to feel anxious about your home when you’re away at work or on a trip. But unless you know your neighbors well, or you work very close to home, you just have to suffer through your anxieties until you return home.

That is…until now. New technologies emerge all the time, allowing us greater control over our lives. And while no one has developed an app that will let the dog out for you, you can indeed check to be sure you closed the garage door when you left home!

The new app is available for both Android and iPhone platforms, and it’s simple to install and use. You simply purchase the accompanying device, which is compatible with all automatic garage doors, and have it installed. Then, you download the app onto your phone. Set it to control your garage door, and now you can control your garage doors from your smart phone!

If you start to worry about your garage door when you’re at work or on a trip, simply check on it via your phone. In two seconds, you can put your mind at ease – and even close the door without having to return home or call in a favor with the neighbors. The device could even come in handy if you need to let someone into your home when you’re away.

Once you install the device in your garage door, multiple users can access it from their smart phones. So each member of the family can download the app , and you never have to worry about lost garage door remotes or dead batteries ever again. Of course, you still need to charge your phone!
