Default Security card latches

There are kits to release your garage door from the opener from the outside
with a key. No problem.

I haven't but I did love the keypad option on my garage door.

However, don't forget to think about what happens in the event
of a power failure. That could be a big problem unless you have
some battery backup and/or an alternate means of entry.
