Whether you are simply coming home for the night, leaving for work in the morning Stringify will make sure your garage is always secure.

You can use Stringify for all of your smart home devices, but to do use it for your garage you will need a Garageio.  If you don’t have a Garageio yet, go here and use the code “STRINGIFY” to get 15% off.
