Chamberlain PowerLift MyQ smart home garage door opener

Chamberlain has introduced a garage door automation solution — PowerLift MyQ. The DIY garage door opener offers users the ability to monitor and control their door using a smart device. Built using the company’s encrypted MyQ technology platform, the app connects home owners to their home router, taking advantage of an increase in smart home connectivity.

MyQ gives users the ability to allow entry for guests, tradesmen and delivery drivers even when they aren’t home. The app notification also alerts home owners any time the garage door is opened or closed.

It can be attached to an existing single- or double-sectional garage door up to 16 m² and connected to a router. It includes obstruction-detection safety beams and reversal technology which will automatically stop and reverse the door if obstructed, keeping children, pets and the family car out of harm’s way.
