Hearing the word ‘smart’ in front of anything these days is often a red flag. You bought a smart TV which is so smart that it won’t turn on when the lounge room lights are off. Your smart fridge is so smart that it won’t add bacon to your shopping list because it’s minding your health for you. Your smart washing machine is so smart that you need a PhD in electronics to figure out how to use it.
Yeah, we get why you may cringe at the word ‘smart’. But, amongst all that, there’s an exception to the rule: smart garage door openers.
Smart garage door openers actually are smart, and they let you do a whole bunch of simple yet life-changing things which were never possible before.
Let’s take a look at some of the benefits of smart garage door openers, thanks to Perth’s legends at Star Door Service.
Goodbye to the buzzer
One of the biggest benefits of smart openers is that you can open and close your garage door using an app in your smartphone. Forget about keeping track of the multiple door buzzers, or worrying about them breaking and having to replace them every couple of years.
Come on in
Checking on the status of your garage door is a walk in the park, especially if you’re worried that one of the kids forgot to close it before heading to school. You can also let friends and family into the garage while you’re not at home; let’s say a mate wants to borrow your kayak, but you’re at work. You open your garage door via your app, he or she gets the kayak, you close it again. Simple as pie.
You get the app, you get the app, everyone gets the app!
Another massive benefit of smart garage door openers? You don’t need to buy a door buzzer for everyone in your family – they can all use the app. This is especially great for large families of five or six and higher, because you just know that one of those buzzers are bound to go missing sooner or later. When each member of your family has the smart garage door opener app, they all have access to opening and closing the garage.
You’ve got mail
And just like letting your friends and family into the garage when you’re not home, smart garage door openers give you piece of mind when receiving packages. Whether you’re at work or on a holiday, receiving a package when you’re not at home is easy – the delivery driver calls you, you open the garage through your app, he leaves it inside, and you close the door again. No more paranoia about your neighbours nicking off with your food delivery.
