Smart garage door systems turn the opener from a single-purpose device into part of your connected home. The headline feature most people install for is remote control — open or close the door from anywhere, get an alert if it's been left open, and confirm closure when you're already at work. Beyond that, geofencing automatically closes the door when you leave home, scheduled close handles forgotten-open evenings, and smart-home routine integration lets the door interact with lights, security, and HVAC.
Our typical smart system install is a MyQ hub for LiftMaster openers (or Aladdin for Genie). The hub mounts on the ceiling near the opener, connects to your Wi-Fi, and bridges the opener to the cloud. From there, the MyQ app provides the basic control surface. We also configure Apple HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home integration during the visit so the door appears in those ecosystems with status, control, and routine triggers.
In-vehicle pairing is a great add-on for compatible cars. Tesla, Ford SYNC, GM OnStar, and several other brands support direct integration with MyQ — meaning the car can open the door automatically as you arrive home, with no separate remote or HomeLink needed. We can set this up during the install if you have a compatible vehicle.
