The Craftsman 139.53779 garage door opener is designed to automatically lift and lower your garage door at the push of a button. The garage door opener typically has a switch hardwired to the mechanical door opener and to a button attached to the wall near the home's garage entry door. A garage door opener also includes two remote controls for opening the garage door from outside the garage, such as when you drive up in a car. The Craftsman 139.53779 is a garage door opener equipped with "smart" or "learnable" technology that allows the remote and receiver to sync automatically in a programming mode. This means you won't have to individually input each possible radio frequency until you find the one that works. The Craftsman 139-series 53779 model also allows you to program other remote control units to open the garage door, which is handy if one of your two Craftsman remotes is damaged or if you would like to have a third remote. Does this Spark an idea?
