Get security and control over your garage door with MyQ Garage Device.
I recently got the chance to review Chamberlain MyQ Garage Smartphone Garage Door Controller and there are three reasons I had to check out this device.
1) I’ve left the house and halfway to my destination wondered if I shut the garage door.
2) We only have one remote for our garage door opener, but we have two cars.
3) Theft has unfortunately increased in our area and if they get in our garage, they can get in our house because it’s attached.
MyQ Garage helps me with all of those concerns, no matter where I am!
First lets talk about this handy dandy device. MyQ Garage works with garage doors openers manufactured after 1993 and is designed to work with doors that have reversing sensors at the bottom of the garage door track. (You can check the Compatability Guide for details) The MyQ Garage Device includes a Wi-Fi Hub, door sensor, mounting bracket, power cord and instructions for the free app download.
Now lets talk about installation. Super simple. So simple Tween Girl could have done it if she wasn’t buried in her latest Summer book. Couple pieces of velcro tape and a couple of screws and your MyQ Garage is installed. Then all you have to do is get out your smartphone and follow the steps to connect the device to your phone using your home’s Wi-Fi.
Using my smartphone and the FREE MyQ Garage App, I can:
Open the garage door remotely – woot for a second remote! 
Receive alerts on my phone when the door is opened – yay for extra security!
Ability to control my garage door from anywhere in the world – now this may or may not be fun while I am out-of-town for work and the family is home. I’m teasing……maybe….. 
If you are looking for a last-minute Father’s Day Gift, and Dad has a phone and a garage, he’s going to love MyQ Garage! The Chamberlain MyQ Garage Smartphone Garage Door Controller retail for $129.99 and you can purchase it at Chamberlain.com, Best Buy, Amazon, Home Depot, Apple Store, and Verizon Wireless.
