I like this garage door opener...

Better than a keypad but it's a bit spendy.




The Master Lock smartTOUCH™ garage door opener is the world’s first universal finger-activated garage door opener, replacing traditional keypads and keys with advanced finger -activated technology. Providing a more convenient alternative to carrying keys or remembering pin codes, a simple swipe of your finger will open/close your garage door. The product provides a homeowner the flexibility of enrolling up to 20 individual users, with the ability to add/delete or change user profiles in 3 simple steps. The Master Lock smartTOUCH™ garage door opener is a wireless, add-on product that is simple to install and easy to operate. The product works seamlessly with any manufacturer opener out of the box and comes with a relay unit that couples as an indoor wall control, along with unique handheld programmer, that prompts the homeowner with easy step by step set up instructions. The whole family can enjoy the benefits of the Master Lock smartTOUCH™ GDO, a product so SMART it recognizes you.

I just wonder if it has two wires in the back of the unit that can be crossed and the door will open, or if it's a remote operated unit.
If it's the unit that has two wires runing to it, then it's just as insecure as most other units and is purely for convenience.

Either way, I think it's unnecessary.

I just use the remote in my car. If I'm already home, I just open the garage from the inside....

we use fingerprint readers at work, and they are notoriously finicky and don't work half the time.....

I just got a pimp a$$ IBM think pad at work, and the fingerprint function sucks! Get a craftsman with a remote keypad. It will last for ever. That thing is more expensive than my whole set up, and it doesn't even come with the opener. It's only a wireless remote.

Not quite forever, but they do last a while. We have to replace ours about every 5-8 years at my folks' house.
