Open, close, and monitor your garage door from your phone — anywhere. myQ, Chamberlain, and LiftMaster smart systems integrated with Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and your whole smart home. No monthly subscription required.
The garage door is one of the most-used entry points in any home — and one of the easiest to make smart. Most Lancaster County homeowners have a Chamberlain, LiftMaster, or Craftsman opener already installed. The myQ Smart Garage Hub adds WiFi control, open/close alerts, and phone access to most openers made after 1993 — no new opener required. We install the hub and door sensor, connect it to your WiFi, and integrate it with Google Home, Apple HomeKit (via the myQ Home Bridge), and any other smart home platform you use. You can set automations: close the garage at 10pm if it was left open, get a notification when it opens at an unusual time, close it as part of your “Leaving Home” scene. It typically takes under an hour to install. Most homeowners add it as an add-on to a smart lighting or security visit.
From a simple myQ hub add-on to a full new opener with built-in smart features — we match the solution to your opener and your smart home platform.
The most common install. A small WiFi hub and magnetic door sensor clip onto your existing Chamberlain, LiftMaster, or Craftsman opener (post-1993). Open/close from anywhere, get open/close alerts, share access with family. Free myQ app. Optional Amazon Key integration for in-garage package delivery.
myQ alone doesn’t support HomeKit. The Chamberlain myQ Home Bridge or a Meross Smart Garage Controller adds full HomeKit support — control from the Home app, include the garage in Siri shortcuts, and automate it in HomeKit scenes like “Good Night” or “Arriving Home.”
Auto-close at 10pm if left open. Close when your phone leaves the geofence. Open as part of your “Arriving Home” scene. We configure automations in Google Home, Apple HomeKit, or your preferred platform during the installation visit — you leave with them working, not just installed.
If your current opener is older than 1993 or you want the cleanest integration, a LiftMaster 84504 or 87504 has built-in myQ — no separate hub required. Native Google Home and HomeKit support. We can coordinate the opener replacement as part of the smart home visit.
Get a phone notification every time the garage opens or closes. Know when your kids get home. Know if it was left open overnight. Know if it opened at 2am. Alert rules are customizable — we configure them during setup so you only get the alerts that matter.
Share timed access codes with house guests, contractors, or housekeepers. Enable Amazon Key for in-garage package delivery — Amazon drivers can open your garage, place the package inside, and close it behind them. You get a photo notification. No code sharing required for delivery.
We configure the garage to work inside the platform you already use — not as a separate app island.
myQ integrates directly with Google Home. Control the garage with Google Assistant, include it in routines, and see its state on your Nest Hub display. “Hey Google, close the garage” works out of the box after setup.
Native myQ SupportRequires the myQ Home Bridge or a Meross controller, both of which we install and configure. Once connected, the garage appears in the Home app, works with Siri, and participates in HomeKit automations and scenes.
Via Home BridgemyQ connects to Alexa via the myQ skill. Control the garage by voice, include it in Alexa routines, and use Echo devices as a voice interface. Amazon Key for package delivery requires a compatible opener and Prime membership.
myQ Skill + Amazon KeyIn most cases, yes. The myQ Smart Garage Control Hub works with most Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and Craftsman openers made after 1993. It adds a WiFi controller and door sensor to your existing opener so you can open, close, and monitor from the myQ app or Google Home. No new opener required for most Lancaster County homes. We confirm compatibility on-site before the visit.
Yes, with the right hardware. The Chamberlain myQ Home Bridge or the Meross Smart Garage Opener adds full Apple HomeKit support. This lets you control the garage from the Home app, include it in “Arriving Home” and “Good Night” automations, and use Siri to open or close it. We install and configure full HomeKit integration as part of the smart home visit.
myQ is Chamberlain’s smart garage platform. A small WiFi hub and magnetic door sensor attach to your existing opener. Once installed, you can open and close from anywhere via the myQ app, get open/close alerts, share access with family or delivery drivers, and integrate with Google Home, Amazon Key, and (with the Home Bridge) Apple HomeKit.
Yes. Once your garage is connected to Google Home or Apple HomeKit, it becomes part of your automations. Common setups: auto-close at 10pm if left open, close when your phone leaves the home geofence, open as part of an “Arriving Home” scene alongside your lights and thermostat. We configure all of this during the installation visit — you leave with them working.
No. Basic remote open/close and open/close alerts through the myQ app are free. Apple HomeKit and Google Home integration require a one-time hardware purchase but no ongoing subscription. Amazon Key for in-garage delivery requires Amazon Prime but no myQ fee. We’ll walk you through the options during the quote so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
If your opener is older than 1993, or you want the cleanest integration, we recommend a new LiftMaster 84504 or 87504 — both have built-in myQ and connect directly to Google Home and Apple HomeKit without a separate hub. We can coordinate the opener upgrade as part of the same visit. If you have a garage door company you prefer, we work alongside them for the opener swap and handle the smart integration side.
Smart garage integration is one of the fastest and most-used smart home upgrades. We confirm your opener’s compatibility, bring the right hardware, and configure everything — including automations and platform integration — in a single visit. Most installs take under an hour.
