Nowadays, a “smart home” is a daily occurrence. Smart solutions are being introduced in almost every sphere of life, and one of them is a smart garage door. It is worth asking the question of whether such an investment is suitable for everyone and who can benefit the most.
What is a smart garage door?
A smart garage door is a modern solution that allows you to remotely control your garage door using a smartphone, tablet or even voice commands. Thanks to integration with mobile apps, users have full control over the opening and closing of the garage door, which is an extremely convenient solution. It also makes it possible to monitor the status of the door and possibly react if it is opened while we are away.
Is a smart garage door for everyone?
Buying a smart garage door is certainly an option that will appeal to those who love technological innovations. If you like making your life easier and use a variety of smart solutions on a daily basis, a smart garage door will complement them perfectly. In what other cases can such an investment come in handy, improving the comfort and safety of its users?
If you like making your life easier
If you use your garage every day, a smart garage door can be a useful solution for you, especially when you spend long minutes searching for the remote control in your purse or car. With a smart garage door, all you have to do is reach for your smartphone and you’ll be able to open it with a single click. What is more, automating the process of opening and closing the garage door means that you don’t have to remember to close it manually after you leave the garage – the door can close automatically when you move a certain distance away. The advantages of automating the process will be appreciated by those who get in and out of the car several times a day just to close or open the garage door and entrance gate. A manual garage door is better than no garage door at all, but if you like making your life easier, an automatic version will be the best choice. The best and most popular, as today, as many as 80% of customers opt for a garage door with a drive unit. And if you can choose a drive with an integrated Wi-Fi module, it turns out that you don’t need to pay anything extra for a smart garage door. In the simplest terms, this is how a smart revolution, called WIŚNIOWSKI Connected, begins.
Security and control, especially when you’re away from home
Apps enabling control of the garage door allow you to check whether the door is closed in real time. If you forget to close it, you can do it remotely from anywhere. Additionally, if you are a person who spends a lot of time away from home, the possibility to check the status of the garage door and control it remotely gives you a sense of security and confidence, regardless of the situation. So if you prioritize the security of your home, a smart garage door can be yet another solution to improve it.
For families with children and pets...
A smart garage door gives you the possibility to monitor who is using the door and when. With the app, you can let your child in if they forgot the key and are freezing at the door while you can’t get off work. You can check whether the garage door has been accidentally opened. It is also possible to grant temporary access in the app – for example, to a neighbour who will feed your dog or cat while you’re away.
...and for the elderly
In the case of the elderly and those with mobility problems, a smart garage door can be a big help. There is no need to move around – a simple gesture on a smartphone is enough to open or close the garage door. This can make seniors more willing to leave the house, as it won’t cause them as much trouble as before.
For those who have a lot
Several properties or several garage doors in one house and a separate remote control for each one – the very thought of it can make your head spin! With the app, you can have it all in one place, and the clear descriptions make everything easier. A smart garage door helps you manage access and control the status of the door also in situations when multiple people use it. All you need is for each of them to be granted access by the administrator under certain rules.
