How to Secure Your Garage Door

Nothing is more important than safety so we have several ways for you to protect your residence, family and belongings. Garage door security is very important, especially if it is attached to your residence.

Besides being a place to keep your vehicle and other belongings, your garage can provide easy access to your home for a potential criminal.

The security of garage doors has been compromised in the last few years because technology has allowed criminals to obtain the codes they need to reprogram your garage door remote. This may not be a well known fact but your garage door remote can be copied or cloned very easily.

If another person has cloned your garage door remote and the door to your house is unlocked then there is nothing stopping them from entering your home.
