Battery Backups Are Lifesavers

By | Power Outage | No Comments

Your schedule doesn’t slow down when a storm rolls in, so you can’t afford for your garage door to quit working. A customer recently contacted us about a coincidence we couldn’t help but share. This customer was excited about one of our LiftMaster garage door opener features – battery backup. And the same week they got their new garage door opener, the power went out. Instead of waiting for the power to come back on or fumbling to manually lift the door, they just clicked the garage door opener. It went up immediately, because of LiftMaster’s battery backup.

When you don’t buy something often, it’s hard to decide which option out there is the best.

And still no garage keypad. When November hit, his motivation level skyrocketed for one particular reason. You…
