Did I close the garage? With a smart garage door opener, you never have to drive back home to check. Open and close the door from your phone, get an alert when it’s left open, let a family member in while you’re at work, or ask your voice assistant to close it at night. Up & Down Garage Doors installs smart openers and Wi-Fi controllers for homes in Connecticut, New York, Arizona, Illinois and Texas, connects them to your network and apps, and makes sure the door itself is safe to automate.
Need help with garage door opener Wi-Fi setup near me, or want to replace an old opener with a smart one? Our licensed technicians come to you and quote the job for free before they begin.
We check your opener’s age, brand and wiring, and recommend the option that fits your garage best. Compatibility matters: not every controller works with every opener, especially newer models with encrypted wall buttons.
There are two ways to get smart garage door automation:
Once your door is connected, you can:
Our smart garage door installation service covers new openers, add-on controllers, app setup and troubleshooting:
We start by checking the door: springs, cables, rollers and balance. Automating a door that’s out of balance only hides the problem, so we make sure it runs smoothly before we connect anything. Then we install the smart device, connect it to Wi-Fi, set up the app and test every function with you.
Replacing an old opener? We install a smart garage door opener with built-in Wi-Fi, set the travel limits and force, install the safety sensors and connect it to your phone. Quiet belt drive Wi-Fi models are a popular choice for attached garages. For other opener types, visit our garage door opener page.
If your opener is in good shape, a smart garage door controller is a quick upgrade. We mount the controller and door sensor, wire it to your opener where required and connect it to the app. We install popular kits, including the Meross garage door opener controller, and can recommend one that matches your opener and smart home platform.
Many Chamberlain models come with Wi-Fi and the myQ app built in. Our Chamberlain smart garage door opener installation includes mounting, sensor alignment, myQ setup and programming your remotes and keypad.
Already have a LiftMaster opener with Wi-Fi but can’t get it connected? Our LiftMaster garage door opener Wi-Fi setup service connects the opener to your network, links it to the myQ app and adds family members. Older LiftMaster models without built-in Wi-Fi can often be upgraded with a compatible smart hub.
Want to say “Hey Siri, close the garage”? A HomeKit garage door opener or a HomeKit-compatible controller lets you control the door from the Apple Home app, add it to scenes and automations, and share access with your household. We help you choose a device that supports Apple HomeKit and set it up on your iPhone.
Smart doesn’t replace the basics. We program remote garage door opener controls, car remotes and wireless keypads, and replace wall buttons that no longer work.
If your opener keeps dropping offline, won’t pair or the app shows the wrong door status, we find the cause. Common fixes include moving the device to the 2.4 GHz band, improving the Wi-Fi signal in the garage, realigning the door sensor or resetting and re-pairing the device.
If your door needs work before it can be automated, see our garage door repair service.
Remote control adds convenience, and it also adds responsibility. We set up every system with safety in mind:

I had an emergency the other day. Something happened and my door refused to close at all. The tech said it was the spring that prevented the door from closing. I asked him to replace both of them to minimize the possibility of another breakage of such type. Thanks for the quick help
James GrayWhat a relief, the door finally tries to kill no one. My dog was scared af. Thanks for your help. He's one happy boy now and that's worth a lot for me!!
Kevin FalconThanks for my new door. It's amazing
Donald SmithThe tech found the problem within minutes and fixed it and explained what was wrong and why this happened. Thank you!
Brian SamExcellent work ethic and customer service. I was so pleased with how Mo strived for perfection in balancing my garage door after replacing the springs. Repair turned out to take much longer than expected, but he did not rush and treated it as if he were repairing his own garage door. He wanted to do it the right way. Pricing excellent as well. I highly recommend.
Mark PoppinsYou did an awesome job. I didn't believe my door could be fixed, only replaced. But no, you somehow managed to make it work again. Thank you very much. I definitely will recommend you to all my friends.

A smart opener is a complete new opener with Wi-Fi built in. A smart controller is a small add-on that makes your existing opener controllable from your phone.
Meross controllers work with many openers, but not all, especially some newer models with encrypted wall buttons. We check compatibility before installing.
Yes, if you use a HomeKit garage door opener or a HomeKit-compatible controller. You can then use Siri, the Home app and automations to control the door.
Wi-Fi LiftMaster models connect through the myQ app. Make sure your phone is on a 2.4 GHz network and follow the app’s steps. If it won’t connect, we can do the LiftMaster garage door opener Wi-Fi setup for you.
The most common causes are a weak signal in the garage, a 5 GHz-only network, a wrong password or an outdated app. Moving the router, adding an extender or using the 2.4 GHz band usually solves it.
Yes, when it’s installed correctly. Look for an opener or controller that warns before closing remotely, use a strong password and turn on two-factor login.
Yes. Most smart openers and controllers send a notification when the door is left open, and many can close it automatically on a schedule.
Your remotes, keypad and wall button keep working. Only app control and notifications pause until the connection is back.
