Garage door opener

[masterchief]

Hi All,

Got my TR3 GT yesterday and wow what a bike, its everything i wanted and way more, however the first this I though of was how do I shut and open my garage door without taking off my gloves and getting my keys out of my pockets and fiddling about with it to open the door, I guess I wont be the first to have come across this issue, any thoughts from the gang?

Garage remote bar mount or key fob versions to carry or mount anywhere.

Google similar and see what others have done.

E.g. Chamberlin two button mini remote, easy to operate with gloves and works with most brands of garage openers.

Google "flash2pass". It ties into your garage door opener and all you do flash your high beams to open.

I made my own and put a botton on the insode of the cowl. Kinda like this

Or like this Amazon.com: Customer reviews: Mo-Door Micro Switch Motorcycle Garage Door Remote

I got one of the keyfob style ones for my opener which I can keep in the sleeve pocket on my jacket that is useless for pretty much any purpose. It's easy to press the button through the fabric.

I used to keep it stuck to my gauge cluster with velcro, but I have five bikes and moving it from bike to bike is more of a hassle than keeping it in my jacket.

There also exist products like mo-door which go on your bike. A control box gets mounted wherever and it comes with a low profile remote switch on a wire which you can place anywhere. You could also just add your own remote switch to your existing opener and just mount the ugly part under the tank or something.

And that is all from JUST one page of a thread in a bike forum

You may already have all the components you need. It's just a matter of getting them integrated and programmed correctly:

Your opener may have an app. Mount your phone and then just click on the icon (mine is a Craftsman), hit open, and viola!

If your gloves are touch screen sensitive then it can all be done quickly and easily.
