Why should you a consider a smart garage door opener for your vacation rental?
Smart garage door openers are another must for short-term rental hosts (if guests have access to your garage). Oddly enough, when we bought our vacation rental home, the previous owners lost the garage door remotes…so, we decided to purchase the myQ Smart Garage Control instead of the normal garage remotes. Wow, is it a game-changer! This innovative device allows you to control and monitor your garage door from anywhere with your phone or tablet. With the myQ Smart Garage Control, you can give guests access to your rental property without having to be there in person.
What makes the myQ the best smart garage door opener?
1. Remote Control
One of the biggest benefits of the myQ Smart Garage Control is the ability to remotely open and close your garage door. This means that you can give guests access to the rental property even if you’re not there. This feature is particularly useful for hosts who have guests arriving late at night or early in the morning, as we can give them access to the property.
2. Monitor Status Remotely
Another great feature of the myQ Smart Garage Control is the ability to monitor the status of your garage door. You can see if the door is open or closed, and you’ll even receive notifications if the door is left open for an extended period of time. This can give you peace of mind when you’re away from the property, knowing that your guests are safe and secure (or, if you forgot to close it when you were there…nope, we’ve never done that before!).
3. Multiple Users
Another benefit of the myQ Smart Garage Control is the ability to add multiple users. This means that you can give access to the property to multiple guests, and even set different access schedules for each guest. This is particularly useful for hosts who rent out their property to multiple groups of guests at different times.
Final Thoughts
The myQ Smart Garage Control is easy to install and use. It’s compatible with most garage door openers, and it can be controlled through a free app. The setup process is simple and straightforward, so you can start using it right away.
