2024 Garage Door Technological Trends
Until recently, the concept of a “smart” garage door would have seemed, at best, a joke and unnecessary and, at worst, an advancement impossible to attain. However, in 2024, remote operation of nearly all household appliances and monitoring of spaces and security systems, including doors, is commonplace.
Wii-Fi Connected Garage Doors
Garage doors connected to smartphones through a shared Wi-Fi connection offer peace of mind and convenience for today’s homeowners. Aligned with Wi-Fi-integrated video and audio security systems, you can monitor activity inside your garage with the ability to open, close, lock, and unlock the garage door. Relax at work or on vacation, knowing that you can immediately preserve the structural integrity of your garage and its contents with the appropriate app installed on your mobile device.
Stepped Up Safety and Security
Unauthorized entry not only permits theft and vandalism in your garage but also gives burglars time and opportunity to break into your house. Enhanced surveillance with the installation of up-to-date garage doors protects your loved ones and your property through:
- Biometric access vastly improves on keypad and remote control technology–plus, a lost remote control is no longer a tragedy or a worry if it falls into the wrong hands.
- Smart cameras mounted inside and outside garages document illegal activity to connected devices.
- Alarm systems built into the garage door integrate with the rest of your home’s security configuration.
Energy Savings
Modern garage doors have high-end insulation, which prevents temperature extremes. Improved climate control saves money on heating and cooling, meeting sustainability and economic goals.
Investing in garage door technology is invaluable for keeping your home and family safe and functional. Talk with your contractor about the benefits of insulated and Wi-Fi-connected garage doors.
