How Do I Control My Garage Door Opener in the SmartRent Mobile App?

In the SmartRent Mobile App, you can remotely open, close, and monitor your garage door.

Controlling Your Garage Door:

To open/close your Garage Door in the SmartRent Mobile App, follow these steps:

  1. Under Smart Home (or Dashboard if you’ve added the device widget), scroll to your Garage Door Controller
  2. To open your garage door, tap Open
  3. To close your garage door, tap Close

To account for the time it takes a garage door to fully open and close, the Garage Door Controller cannot receive multiple commands within 60 seconds of each other.  

If your Garage Door Controller shows an Unknown state in the SmartRent Mobile App, reach out to our support team, for troubleshooting assistance.

Activity and Schedules:

To view your Garage Door Controller Activity feed or set a Schedule in your SmartRent Mobile App, follow these steps:

  1. Under Smart Home (or Dashboard if you’ve added the device widget), scroll to your Garage Door Controller
  2. Tap the three dots in the upper right corner of the device card
  3. To view your garage door’s Activity, tap View Activity 
    • This will open your Activity feed so you can see when your garage door has been opened or closed
  4. To create a schedule for your Garage Door Controller, (i.e. close my garage door every night at 7 pm), tap Schedule 
    • To make a new Schedule, tap +
    • Set the time and the days you want the Schedule to occur
    • Tap the checkmark in the upper right corner
    • Set what you'd like the garage door to do at the scheduled time (open or close)
    • Tap the checkmark in the upper right corner after reviewing your Schedule 

Compatible Garage Doors:

The Linear/GoControl Garage Door Controller is compatible with most electric garage door systems manufactured after 1993. If your community does not currently support garage door controls, reach out to your community manager or our support team to see if garage door controllers are an option for you.
