- Always Lock Your Garage Door (Wisely!):
Manually lock your garage door, especially if youāre going away for an extended period. Many openers have a vacation lock feature. IMPORTANT: Never use the manual lock when operating your garage door with an automatic opener, as this can cause severe damage to your door or opener! - Secure the Emergency Release:
Burglars can use a coat hanger to snag the emergency release handle. Consider disabling it with a zip tie or removing the handle when youāre away, but remember to re-enable it for safety when you return. - Upgrade Your Opener:
Upgrade your garage door opener for enhanced security features. - Install a Security Camera:
Visible security cameras can deter intruders and provide valuable evidence if a break-in occurs. Consider smart cameras that send alerts to your phone. - Maintain Your Door:
A well-maintained garage door operates smoothly and quietly, making it less likely to attract attention. Regular maintenance also ensures all security features are functioning correctly.
