What Is the Genie Intellicode Garage Door Opener

Everyone loves to have a garage door opener. Having one will offer you the comfort of staying in the car when you leave or come back home, by using a remote. Otherwise, you’d have to get out of the car every time you must open the garage door. However, if your garage can also be used as an entrance to your house, that could be a problem. You probably wonder why. Well it is a problem because thieves have found a way to steal the code of the signal you send with your remote and this way they can enter your house even if everything is locked and you have a security system.

They can do this by using a device called code grabber. Such a device can be found very easily and is used pretty often to break into someone’s house. With it, they copy the code sent by your remote and they can use then to get into your home through your garage. To prevent this, the best thing you can do is to get a Genie Intellicode garage door opener, because it is equipped with the Intellicode system.

If you have a usual garage door opener, then the same signal will be sent every time you use it, which will make it very easy for the thieves to steal the code. If you have Intellicode then the code will be changed each time you use the opener. In this case, even if thieves still copy the code, they won’t be able to use it, because the code has changed. The Intellicode system has approximately 4.3 billion codes. A thief will never be able to copy all of them and try them all out. So that means that with Intellicode your home is safe. This system is also protected from other garage door remotes. So you don’t have to worry if someone with a garage door uses the exact code.

All the new Genie garage door openers are equipped with the Intellicode system. I recommend you should get one if you want your home to be safe. If you are happy with your own garage door opener there is a way to get Intellicode. You just have to get a conversion kit, where you get everything you need to include this system. For the maximum safety for your garage door opener, be sure to use Intellicode!
