Smart garage door openers have become increasingly popular, offering features like smartphone control, activity alerts, and voice assistant integration. But are they worth the extra cost?
Key Smart Features
Smartphone Control
Open and close your garage door from anywhere. Perfect for letting in deliveries, contractors, or family members when you're away.
Activity Monitoring
Receive alerts when your garage door opens or closes. Know when the kids get home from school.
Voice Assistant Integration
Works with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit for hands-free control.
Scheduling
Set your door to close automatically at night if you forgot.
Cost Considerations
Smart openers typically cost $50-200 more than basic models. The MyQ system can add smart features to existing openers for around $30-50.
Our Recommendation
For most homeowners, the peace of mind and convenience justify the modest price increase. We recommend LiftMaster's smart openers for their reliability and security features.
