The Challenge

Chamberlain is the world’s largest garage door opener manufacturer. The company sells its products under several brand names and channels and is popular both for DIY and professional installations. After intensive market research among homeowners, Chamberlain confirmed a common usability issue that impacted a significant majority of its customers: the “U-Turn Problem”.

A few minutes after leaving their home, most garage door opener owners experience a nagging worry about whether they closed their garage door. Many homeowners will actually turn their car around and drive back home just to double-check. Wanting to improve the consumer’s user experience with their products, Chamberlain’s connected garage door opener project was born. Chamberlain now markets their Internet-connected garage door openers as a “peace of mind” purchase and reports that their customers open the app an average of four times per week.
