Add Receiver Phone with airSlate SignNow

Add receiver phone

What's up guys? It's Andy and I am recently a new homeowner. This is actually my new kitchen and that's my cat right there in the window sill. Anyway I apologize for the echo. I wanted to do this video about my garage because I'm a new garage owner as well, and this 1980 garage door opener came with the garage. It's the only one I have and I was like "There's got to be a better way to open the garage possibly with, you know, your phone." So I went online and this is not a sponsored video by the way, but I found this product called the Garage Mate, and you can open your garage over Bluetooth with this thing. It's 50 bucks on Amazon. I'll leave a link in the description below so you can check it out, but I just want to do a video over how to install it and how well it works because I don't see many videos about this GarageMate product so I wanted to do one and let you guys know if you're a garage owner yourself how it works and how you can set it up and how easy it is to install so let's go out to the garage and put this thing up and see how it works. Alright so we're in the garage now, and we are going to open up this panel here and the GarageMate works with almost any garage door opener but there are some exceptions. I'll leave a link to their website so you can check it out and see if it works for your garage door opener that you currently have. The process is pretty simple, I think you just connect the wires to these terminals right here, the red and white ones. So here's the Garage Mate right here. I'm going to go ahead and open it up and plug it in. Ok so now I got the GarageMate plugged into power up there and the first thing you want to do is actually connect it to your iPhone so this works for iOS and Android devices and you can pair up to eight devices per one GarageMate receiver. So once it's powered on hold the blue button down for about 4 to 5 seconds until the LED starts to blink. Ok and then once it starts blinking you can pull out your phone. Make sure Bluetooth is on then go to the GarageMate app. It's free and then you click on the gear icon here. Click on "My Garages" and then scan for new receivers. It's going to, should pick it up in a few seconds and it says "Receiver found" and we want to go ahead and click "Pair". And it'll pair to your Garage Mate receiver and then you also have a PIN on the back of your receiver that you put in right now and there we go. Success, you have successfully paired your GarageMate receiver. Sweet that was pretty easy. So now once you've paired your GarageMate with your phone as long as you've got the red and white wires connected depending on however your garage door opener is set up. That's how mine is set up. Once those are connected the power is plugged in up there. The receiver - there's the GarageMate receiver. I'm just gonna leave mine in this little white thing. You can leave it dangling down however you want to do it but I think Bluetooth is going to go through this no problem. We'll test it out though. Make sure Bluetooth is on on your phone, open up the GarageMate app and all you have to do is hit this main garage door button. There you go, works like a charm. I want to test this out a little farther away see how far the Bluetooth will work but there it works. I'll go ahead and leave that closed. We'll back up in my car and see how far away it will work. Alright so now we're about like 20 feet away, I don't know, I'm not good at guessing the lengths of things but I'm guessing about 20 feet away. Let's see if it works. Yep worked great. I'm so far, I'm extremely happy with this. I've only opened my garage door twice but I think it seems to be working as expected. So if you never want to deal with garage remotes again, changing out batteries, buying new ones, losing them, and you want to open your garage door wirelessly over Bluetooth then check out the Garage Mate. I think it's an awesome purchase for 50 bucks. It should last you for a long long time. Thank you for watching.
