From lights and appliances to apps and home assistants, our homes are becoming more tech savvy day by day, making life easier.
Merlin’s innovative myQ technology is the latest in garage safety, security and convenience, and most sectional and roller garage door openers from Merlin are now myQ compatible.
Here’s just a few ways that myQ technology can keep your home and family safe.
Keep thieves out
From expensive cars and bikes, to drones, golf clubs and camping gear, New Zealanders store many valuable items in our garages and many homes are left unattended for long periods throughout the day, so it’s important the garage is secure.
Have you ever driven halfway to your destination and had that sinking feeling that you forgot to close the garage door behind you? myQ technology allows you to monitor and control your garage door no matter where you are, from your smartphone, tablet or Apple Watch.
The myQ App also sends real-time alerts and notifications when the garage is opened, closed or left open for a period of time. It also has a scheduling feature which means the garage door can be set to close at a certain time, so you can be sure your garage door is closed.
Safety first
Merlin’s number one priority is the safety of our garage door opener products and accessories.
As the largest moving object in the house, it’s so important to be safe around the garage door. Kids and pets around the garage door can be a safety hazard, especially during busy morning school runs.
To use myQ technology, the Protector System (Safety IR Beams) must be installed. Safety Beams reliably stops the garage door closing when the beam is obstructed or broken, giving peace of mind that your children, pets, and belongings won’t be caught under the garage door.
