A little rough on the language but very true.

Never gave it a thought. If someone wants to break into my particular home, they will find a way to do it regardless. I have decided to go forward without fear on the assumption that my fear hurts my immune system. Oh well. Hope it works out for us both and for the "rivet" person too (he's smart and handy).

Garage door remote
 

We needed another one, so bought a small universal remote that goes on the key ring. Fits in your pocket easily.

Best idea yet.

Seriously? Rain isnt going to cause a heart attack.

My keypad has died and ROMAC says they are no longer available. Do you know where I could buy one?

I have one that has been velcroed to the inside roof of my golf cart for 8 years. No one has ever bothered with it.

Do you leave your cell phone, wallet, keys in your golf cart? Why would you leave your garage opener there. Take it.

Is that your professional medical opinion or are you just being snarky?

Giving the benefit of a doubt, rain may not cause a heart attack but it could lead to a slip and fall situation. Walking in the rain, even for 30 seconds, would be unnecessary if a garage door remote was in the golf cart, which was the original question.

We have ours on a key chain with the key to the golf cart

Lowes. Generic brands work.

We ordered ours from amazon, it took about 5 minutes to program and install.

Spring for the accessory from Villages carts that has a button on the dash that opens the door, just like your car. Program and leave the opener at home.

The RinkuHaus G-Link allows you to control your garage opener with the flash of your headlights. Works for both Cars and Motorcycles!
