FAQ
- Do I need a board for each opener?
- Yes. One board runs one opener. Two doors with two openers need two boards, and the app shows both on its Home screen.
- How does it work?
- A small board wires to your opener with two wires and plugs into power. It joins your Wi-Fi and reaches our service, and the app on your phone talks to it from anywhere. On your home Wi-Fi the app talks to the board directly, so it keeps working when the internet is out. Retrofit your opener.
- Does it need a subscription?
- No. Everything is included with the board, and it works from anywhere.
- How hard is the setup?
- Easy. Wire the board to your opener and plug it in, then the app walks you through the rest: it finds the board over Bluetooth, joins your Wi-Fi, asks which opener you have, and measures your door. Watch the install.
- Does it work everywhere?
- Yes, anywhere you have an internet connection. At home it works on your Wi-Fi even without one.
- Which openers does it work with?
- Chamberlain, LiftMaster and Craftsman, Genie, and most other openers with a wall button, but not openers made before 1993. The newest Chamberlain-built openers, with a white learn button, are coming soon. Check your opener. Find your learn button.
- Is it like myQ?
- It does the same job, built differently: wired to the opener you have, nothing on a battery, no subscription. See the two side by side.
- Will it tell me if I left the door open?
- Yes. You choose how long is too long.
- Can it open the door only part way?
- Yes. Once the app has measured your door, you can open it a quarter, half or three quarters of the way.
- Does it work in a cold garage?
- Yes. The parts are rated for the cold, and the first boards are for Manitoba.
- Can my family use it?
- Yes. Invite each of them from the app, with their own sign-in. Share all your garages, or just one with a tenant. Each person picks their own alerts. When a tenant leaves the garage open.
- Does it work with Home Assistant?
- Yes, on your home Wi-Fi, with a key the app shows you. Keep that key to yourself: anyone with it on your Wi-Fi can open the door.
- What about carbon monoxide?
- SafeGarage with CO opens the door a little when carbon monoxide rises. It is a ventilation helper, not a CO alarm; keep a certified alarm in your home. Starting the car in an attached garage.
- What’s in the box?
- The SafeGarage, a power adapter, a USB cable and three wiring cables.
