Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the myQ Video Keypad to monitor my driveway from anywhere with cell service?
Yes. As long as the keypad is connected to your home Wi-Fi, the live 1080p feed and motion alerts are accessible from the myQ app on any smartphone, anywhere in the world.
Is the camera wide enough to see the full driveway and the doorway at the same time?
Yes. The 1080p wide-angle lens is designed to cover from the driveway approach to the garage entry, so you see both the person and their vehicle in one frame.
Will the keypad hold up to weather on an exposed garage exterior?
The keypad is built for outdoor garage mounting and designed to handle typical weather conditions seen on a residential exterior wall.
Can I install it on a detached garage or workshop away from the house?
Yes. The Bluetooth-assisted Wi-Fi setup and 900-foot maximum control range make it a strong fit for detached garages, carriage houses, and workshop buildings.
Does the two-way audio work well enough to talk to a delivery driver at the curb?
Yes. The built-in speaker and microphone let you have a real conversation with someone at the garage, including instructing a driver where to leave a package.
Is this a good fit for monitoring a vacation home remotely?
Yes. Travelers and second-home owners use it to check on the property, see who arrives, and grant access to cleaners or guests without driving to the location.
As an Airbnb host, can I give each guest their own PIN that expires on checkout?
Yes. The myQ app lets you create unique PIN codes with time-specific day and hour passes, perfect for rotating guest access between bookings.
How does this compare to a standalone outdoor security camera for my driveway?
A standalone camera only watches. This keypad combines a wide-angle camera, two-way audio, and a working PIN entry system, so it both monitors and controls access in one device.
Compared to a basic smart garage opener controller, what extra outdoor benefit do I get?
A basic controller just opens the door. This adds live visual monitoring, conversation capability, and personalized access codes, giving you a full outdoor entry station instead of a single button.
What happens if my Wi-Fi goes out while I am away from home?
The keypad stores recent activity locally, and once Wi-Fi returns it syncs to the myQ app. The PIN entry function still works at the door regardless of connectivity.
Is the live video really viewable from another country, or only on home Wi-Fi?
It is viewable from anywhere with internet access. As long as your home Wi-Fi is online, the myQ app streams the live feed over cellular or any Wi-Fi connection worldwide.
Will the camera and app drain my phone battery when I check in often?
The myQ app is optimized for short check-ins, and a quick live view session uses minimal battery. You can also adjust alert frequency to reduce background activity.
How do I install the myQ Smart Garage Door Video Keypad?
Installation is a wireless DIY process. Mount the keypad near your garage door, pair it with the myQ app over Bluetooth, connect it to your home Wi-Fi, and link it to your existing compatible opener. No electrician or door technician is required.
How do I set up and manage PIN codes for family and guests?
Open the myQ app, go to the keypad settings, and create a unique PIN for each user. You can set each code to be active all the time or restricted to specific days and hours, and you can edit or delete codes at any time.
How do I use the two-way audio and live camera feed?
When the keypad sends an alert or you open the live view in the myQ app, you can see the 1080p wide-angle feed and tap the microphone icon to speak through the keypad's speaker to whoever is at the garage.
Does the myQ Video Keypad work with my Chamberlain, LiftMaster, or Craftsman garage door opener?
Yes, it is designed to retrofit openers from Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and Craftsman manufactured after 1993, which covers the majority of openers in homes today.
Will it work with other brands of garage door openers?
It is optimized for Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and Craftsman openers from 1993 onward. Compatibility with other brands is limited, so check the myQ compatibility tool before purchasing.
What is included in the box when I order the myQ Video Keypad?
The box includes the smart video keypad, mounting hardware, a quick-start guide, and any battery or power accessories specific to the bundle you choose. A smartphone with the myQ app is required for setup.
Is the myQ Video Keypad safe to leave outdoors year-round?
Yes. The keypad is designed for residential outdoor mounting on a garage exterior and is built to handle typical weather conditions seen in a home driveway or side-of-house installation.
What happens to my PIN codes and video history if the keypad loses power?
Your PIN settings are stored in the myQ cloud, so they remain intact. Once power is restored, the keypad reconnects and recent activity syncs back to the app automatically.
What is the difference between the myQ Video Keypad and a standard smart garage door opener?
A standard smart opener controller simply lets you open and close the door from your phone. The myQ Video Keypad adds a 1080p wide-angle camera, two-way audio, and personalized PIN code entry, turning the garage into a fully monitored smart access point.
