LiftMaster 6690L Premium Belt Drive Opener with Battery Backup, 360° Camera, and myQ

The LiftMaster 6690L is designed for homeowners who value quiet operation, visibility, and smart monitoring. Its ultra-quiet belt drive and DC motor reduce noise in attached garages, while Corner to Corner Lighting™ delivers full, even illumination. Unlike many LiftMaster models, it includes an adjustable integrated camera as standard for real-time visibility through the myQ® app.

What sets the 6690L apart is its focus on long-term reliability and everyday convenience. Built-in battery backup keeps your garage accessible during power outages, and the lifetime motor and belt warranty reduces maintenance concerns. Designed specifically for residential use, the 6690L delivers balanced performance, comfort, and peace of mind without unnecessary complexity.
