Click-bait.
There are dozens of ways to get into a garage, especially when thieves know what is inside and wants it. People in my area get cars stolen by leaving theirs unlocked. Thieves get in, hit garage opener door, walk inside to take the keys, drive off. Onto a highway, into a shiping container (no reception), gone. All the time.
There is only one way to open the garage when the power go out, in the dark. It's the emergency pull string. It stays.
