Heading out on Vacation?

So, I'm heading out on vacation - tickets, rental car - check. Furnace set low, water heater turned down - check. Lights on timer and dog to kennel - check.  etc. etc.
 
One thing that is rarely on peoples' checklists for vacation is their garage door. Make it simple and safe.
On your wall remote switch (where you turn lights on/off etc. is a "Lock" button. Take a couple of seconds to lock the garage door and eliminate accidental openings from random radio signals etc.
 
If you have a slide lock on your garage door (into the side rails) engage it... and disconnect your door from the garage door opener. This will mean your door is locked and any accidental attempts to open it with the remote will not damage the opener...
 
OK. All set - Enjoy your vacation!
