What could cause a garage door to open by itself at 2 am? It was the door on my wife's side of the garage. It has the original opener I put in when we built the house. You have to have the bumper of the car almost against the door for it to work. I've replaced mine and I can get it to open when I'm a hundred yards away or so.
Anyway, my wife and I cannot hear the garage doors open from our end of the house. However, my son's room is over the garage, so he can. So, here we are at 2 am searching the property; I have a pistol grip 12 gauge with 8 rounds and the SureFire flashlight system under it's barrel. My son's following me with my Glock 29 in his pocket and my 5 million candle power NightLight spot light. When I walk back into the house I find Mrs. Dargo waiting at the kitchen table with this big 8" "Survival Knife"! Where'd she get that?!
I'm not too concerned about finding anyone because Dargo and Bruno are laying on the front porch and do not seem the least bit disturbed. Anyway, after lighting up this whole area like a Christmas Tree, we searched every place and found nothing; as I expected.
The nearest road is about 1/4 mile away and it doesn't have much traffic; especially at 2am. Any ideas what could have caused the door to open? My wife and I leave later today for Grand Cayman and my son is concerned. Ideas? The door from the garage to the house was locked, so the house would have still been secure. Since only my wife and I park in the house garage I'm considering unplugging both openers while we are gone...should I?
