From the Garage Door to the Gate: One System, One Standard

LIFTMASTER’ S EVX garage door openers and EVK gate operators share the same radio, the same accessories and a similar set-up logic— and that changes how a residential project runs.

Residential access has become a twopart job. Most private projects now involve a garage door and an entrance gate, an app on the homeowner’ s phone, and one professional who has to make all of it work— ideally in a single visit. LiftMaster develops its residential range as one system for exactly that reason.

EVX: Connectivity meets convenience

The EVX Series is myQ compatible, enabling smart and connected access when paired with the myQ Internet Gateway. Remote operation, real-time door status, guest users’ management, activity alerts and scheduled closing are available from the moment the operator is commissioned.

Designed around the installation

The EVX Series is engineered with that in mind: logical assembly, sensible cable routing, pre-set default applications and programming that can be completed without calling technical support. Commissioning ends with a working app on the customer’ s phone before the van leaves the driveway.

With skilled labor, the scarcest resource in the industry, installation time and avoidable service calls are no longer soft factors. They are the margin.

One app, one handset, one system

The same thinking at the gate:

Here is where the system idea pays off a second time. LiftMaster’ s EVK gate operators are developed on the same principles as the EVX Series— the same radio standard, the same accessories, the same myQ connectivity, the same approach to development, installation and daily use.
