After watching this video. I purchased one of these. I have really old opener. A Stanley, it's 40 years old. It works really well, but I can't get a replacement remote. This device was very easy to install and connect to my WIFI. The only problem I had was finding a spot for the sensor. I had to fabricate a piece to attach to the top of the door for the magnet. It all works well and now I know if my garage is open no matter where I am.
can you give more details on what you did to get the sensor to work and what was the issue for the sensor?
Thank you for your time and effort to teach us for these details. Your video was more useful than Ekyro's websites videos. Thank you.
Phenomenal detail. Installing, and then showing how to setup on phone and automate with Siri
Thank you for sharing this .. really smart and helpful. Regarding the “open/close” buttons, can I add “hold” button to use while it is opening or closing !! @Automotivate
...guy describes my exact problem....using a wired opener that I thought I would need and then talks about motorcycles......MY MAN
Thanks for the video, gonna give it a shot. I have an older opener and the website notes it'll work with my setup - hoping it works! Opener on the cell was the goal - this looks like it'll do exactly what I'm looking for.
My wife and I love it. It has been so hassle free since I installed it. Wish you luck!
UPDATE: installed the unit which was super simple and it worked right away! My old opener is now modernized for a fraction and hassle of replacing it with a newer modern unit!
@@RenderingsToTheMAX heck yeah dude! With this there is no point to replace the garage opener with something more expensive
Question: Can I still use the garage controllers after the smart installation?
Hey! Just bought this and installed it. Just waiting on the adapter. QUESTION, does this work if your phone isn’t connected to WiFi?
Can we connet more phone to garage opener?
I’m the guy who has to drive back a mile later because he can’t recall whether or not he closed the garage door.
Ok, but after you do that wiring, will the button by the door and the old garage door openers still work?
Yes they do! We are simply tapping into the wires not removing its current functions
Yes, you're just tapping into the existing connection. Because one of my remotes was stolen I had to remove all of the codes from each unit so that none of the remotes no longer work. But these units are great - I wish we had done this years ago
Have you had any issues adding a spouse iPhone to use Siri? She can open/close door with app but cannot add scenes says device not found.
No issues. She uses it all the time with voice control. I would re-setup her phone as it is most likely on that end.
I had the same problem with the remote not working;
it was the LED bulb in the motor unit.
Changed it for another brand. Same problem. Used a known brand, same problem...
I tried to move the antenna to the opposite side, and made it one meter longer, same problem.
CFL was not an option. So, I went with an old-school bulb.
Problem solved.
And my remote started to "work" again.
I tried that same thing but it didn’t fix my issue. I’m assuming the upstairs neighbors has something in their house that is interfering. Either way, i prefers to Siri activated garage door anyways
@@AutoMotivateIt is surprising that electric devices meet specific agencies' requirements, yet they are vulnerable to RF jamming, or they are the jammer.
Thanks! I was looking for a video how to install the garage door opener closer notification.
Thank you so much for the support!! I’m tried my best to hit every angle and I’m glad I met your expectations 🙏 thank you again
Anyone know how to reset unit?
Can i use 2 phone sam time
Yes!
Yes - you have to share the device with another user.
Seems like a lot of work, but I guess if you have the patience, you could do this. Where is that accent from?
Anyone have any ideas why my opener not moving when I jump the white n red ? This is preventing me to install this wireless opener
I would make sure your garage opener is compatible by going to eKyros website
@@AutoMotivate it is compatible , but my problem starts before that, when i try the jumper wire on any 2 terminals, the up or down arrow flasing but the door will not move. therefore it is not possible to connect it until i figure out why the door will not move when i put a jumper wire on the white n red terminals. does that make sense?
@@csabi72 I kind of follow. Are the sensors blocked. Perhaps your wire is a different wire you need to jump?
@@AutoMotivate I have tried to jump all 4 terminals every wich way, but the door won't move, just the arrow flashing
@@csabi72 might be a stupid question, but does the door open normally?
Everything I am seeing is referencing that the sensors aren’t aligned/dirty or there’s something mechanically wrong.
For some reason my Siri works with "Close the Garage" only.
Check the phrasing. I just used "Close garage door 1" instead of adding "hey siri"
Oh.. what would happen if your phone lost?😅
Gotta use wifes.. Or hope the clicker works. Could also just go through the front door.
I have this product and I f I do not have my phone with me, I either use the clicker in the car, the keypad for my garage door, or another door into the house 👍🏻
use lock on garage door when away it slides into track
I do that whenever I’m gone for more than a day. I use a heavy duty bolt. Appreciate the comment, hopefully others will see this
