Is there a way to program a garage door code into the watch so when help arrives they can gain access to my house?

[doublepost=1545486335][/doublepost]I finally found the answer to my own question reference - If your Apple Watch detects a fall, how do the emergency people gain access to your. house? Knox Company makes a small. wall mounted safe mounted on the outside of your door. It holds the key to your house. Emergency workers have a master key which enables them to retrieve your house key!
 
Just FYI, Chamberlain makes a system that connects in your Home automation which will allow you to open or close your garage door from anywhere. I use it all the time while walking the door; can work from either the Watch or iPhone
 
I have a Chamberlain garage door opener. The MyQ and the built in wifi (i have built in) will not really help the OP. He is looking for the instance when he is incapacitated. Part of Chamberlain's terms of service with home automation wont let the door open/close through automation. You have to initiate it yourself through your device (open the home automation app, or talk to siri to open/close the door).

I have an android based GPS system on my motorcycle, the Chamberlain app wont even save the password, because it believes the unit is rooted.
