MyQ

What MyQ does

MyQ is a smart home access brand owned by Chamberlain Group, headquartered in Oak Brook, United States, that offers a unified app platform for app-controlled garage door openers, smart locks, and video doorbells. Its product portfolio spans the MyQ Garage Door Opener System (a smart garage controller distributed through OEM vehicle integrations such as the Honda Hondalink app), the MyQ Secure View 3-in-1 Smart Lock launched in April 2026 at $279.99 with biometric and 2K video functionality, and the MyQ Video Doorbell Camera launched in February 2026 at $7.99/month for cloud storage. The underlying technology is an IoT-enabled cloud platform operating over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi with subscription-backed video storage and smart alerts.

The company operates three go-to-market motions in parallel: OEM embedded distribution into vehicles (B2B2C, with Honda as flagship partner following the 2026 replacement of Homelink), enterprise field sales to multifamily property managers through the myQ Community platform, and direct-to-consumer retail of smart locks and doorbells. The Community platform is integrated with Schlage, Yale, and RemoteLock smart locks, positioning MyQ as the software-defined access layer across third-party hardware in apartment communities. Revenue is generated through a mix of one-time hardware sales, recurring consumer subscriptions for cloud video and OEM vehicle integration, and enterprise property management contracts, with the smart garage door opener market projected to grow from $2.634B in 2024 to $8.402B by 2035 at an 11.12% CAGR.
