Garage Door Openers

Installing your Wi-Fi garage door opener consists of one of four options: running long ethernet cables through walls for a wired connection; using a Wi-Fi extender to lengthen the reach of your router coverage to wirelessly reach outer areas of your house and grounds; incorporating a powerline network to run the signal through existing electrical wiring in your home; or using a mesh Wi-Fi system that incorporates a main router and a series of satellite nodes strategically placed around your house. You can install the network yourself, but if you're not up to it, let Geek Squad help with smart home services. An agent will deliver your device, set it up, and troubleshoot your Wi-Fi (if needed).

Integrating a smart garage door opener into your connected home could be the best thing you do this weekend. These garage door openers enable you to use a smartphone to open and close your garage door remotely from just about anywhere in the world. Plus, you get a real-time window into what's happening with your garage. You can let the kids in after school, allow your plumber access to the sink while you're stuck at work, or let the neighbor in to feed the cat when you're out of town. And when you have a Wi-Fi garage door opener, you'll never worry about whether you mistakenly left your garage door open or whether you'll be able to get back in if you lose your garage door opener remote.

When you're choosing the best garage door opener for you, consider if the opener will smoothly integrate into your other home automation systems for maximum overall performance and reliability. For example, make sure the smart garage door opener you're considering is compatible with your existing garage door opener. If you plan on managing your Wi-Fi garage door opener with a voice assistant like Google Home or Alexa, verify that it's compatible before you buy. Keep in mind that some brands require you to purchase a subscription. You should also ensure that your new garage door opener can integrate with other smart home security systems, like security lighting, smart door locks and security cameras.
