Wall-Mount Wi-Fi Garage Door Opener – No More Cable Tension Monitor
Upgrade your garage with the Liftmaster 98022MC Elite Series wall-mount opener. A sleek, space-saving system offering built-in Wi-Fi, battery backup, strong DC motor power, and smart-home convenience.
Smart Home Connectivity & Control
Built-in Wi-Fi and myQ Integration
- The 98022MC comes with integrated Wi-Fi and connects seamlessly with the free myQ® app, allowing you to open or close your garage door, receive status alerts, or schedule operations from your smartphone or tablet.
- It also supports syncing with other smart-home devices, letting you integrate garage operations into a broader home automation system.
Remote LED Light and App-Controlled Lighting
- Included with the opener is a myQ Remote LED Light.
- This lighting delivers garage-wide illumination and can be controlled through the app, enhancing visibility and convenience.
Space-Saving, Quiet, and Powerful Operation
Wall-Mount Design — No Ceiling Rail Needed
- Because this opener mounts on the wall beside the garage door instead of overhead, it frees up ceiling space.
- Ideal if you have a storage shelf or vaulted ceiling above the garage.
Smooth, Silent DC Motor Performance
- A 12 V DC motor powers the unit, giving nearly silent, vibration-free operation which is perfect for attached garages or living spaces above.
- The opener delivers consistent force and can lift doors up to 850 lbs, making it suitable for standard and heavy residential garage doors.
Safety, Security, and Reliability
Safety Sensors & Auto-Reverse Protection
- The opener includes standard safety sensors that automatically prevent the door from closing if an obstruction crosses the threshold which can protect vehicles, pets, and people.
Secure Access with Rolling Code Technology
- Security+ 2.0® rolling-code encryption ensures that every remote signal sent is new which minimizes risk of unauthorized access or code theft.
Battery Backup — Garage Access Even During Outages
- One of the key features of the 98022MC is battery backup: if power goes out, you can still open and close the garage door.
Automatic Lock and Timer-to-Close
- The system includes an automatic garage door lock (deadbolt) that engages when the door closes — adding an extra layer of security.
- It also offers a Timer-to-Close feature, which automatically closes the door after a set period (e.g. 1, 5, or 10 minutes), great for households where doors are frequently left open accidentally.
