I would recommend just picking an installer that will install Chamberlain, Liftmaster, or any door compatible with MyQ. That will mean you can use an app to open and close your door. You will have history of it. In addition, you can use Amazon Key Delivery for secure delivery of your orders.

An alternative would be to use Aladdin connect or some other app. This may require mounting something on the door itself to detect whether it is open or closed. I use that now, because the original door was not Chamberlain compatible. When Chamberlain upgraded MyQ, they disabled MyQ, for the device that I mounted on the door. Avoid needing the extra detector to keep it simple.

If you don't want to use Amazon Key Delivery now, at least you, will have the choice in the future. You can also enable others to enter your garage with individual codes if you want to. So you can know who had access and when.
