This item was shipped so fast and in perfect packaging. It was brand new as described and EXTREMELY easy to install. It gets used several times per day and for buying a new home with no way to open the automatic door except a door bell switch, this is...

Great for Older Garage Door Openers

We have an ancient garage door opener, so we didn't think we could get a wireless keypad for it. Well, this one works just great! It took about 2 minutes to program and another few minutes to attach. We've only been using it for a week, but no problems...

wrong product

This Keypad will not work with newer models of door openers. It only works with the openers that have codes set manually. Don't buy this unless you check your opener type first.

Works as advertised, I have no complaints of this product. I have an old Genie that requires the old type of touch pad opener. Easy to code and works great.

Works well for old Genie openers

This does exactly what I wanted it to do, well. I wish I could operate 2 doors with it, but it does one door very well. It is for the old style and helped me avoid having to buy a new opener. We had been following the dangerous practice of hitting...

Product Specifications

This looks like my keypad, but how do I know if it's the right one? 1. Frequency: Check the back of your remote or keypad to make sure the frequency is 390mhz (megahertz). 2. Dip Switches: Open the battery compartment on your old garage door remote or keypad and look to see how many dip switches (tiny switches in a row) it has. If your old remote has 9 or 12 dip switches, then it's a match for this keypad. If you don't have your old garage door remote, you can also look to see how many dip switches are on the back of your garage door opener (the overhead unit in your garage). The number of dip switches on the back of the opener is the same as on the remote or keypad.
