How to find the right garage door remote

The remote has to match your opener, not your door. The fastest way to get the right one is to read the model number off the opener itself.

  1. Find the motor unit. It’s the box on the ceiling or above the door, usually with a light inside.
  2. Look for the sticker. It’s often on the side or under the light cover. Note the brand and the model number, for example Merlin MT230 or ATA GDO-6v3.
  3. Match it. Open your brand below and find the model in the fit table, or type it into Find your remote.

No sticker? Your old remote helps too. The part number is often printed on the back or inside the battery cover.

Shop by opener brand

Genuine or aftermarket?

Both open your door. A genuine remote is made by your opener’s brand and carries its warranty. An aftermarket remote is made by another company to work with the same openers, usually for less. Our own aftermarket range is Auto Openers. Every product is labelled Genuine or Aftermarket. We only list an opener as compatible once it’s confirmed. More on genuine and aftermarket remotes.

Programming a new remote

Most remotes take a couple of minutes to program and need no tools. You press the learn button on the motor unit, then press the button on the new remote. Each brand does it a little differently, so use the programming guide for your remote.

Questions

Will any garage door remote work with my opener?

No. Each opener only accepts remotes that use its coding system and radio frequency. That’s why every remote here lists the openers it’s confirmed to work with.

Is there a universal garage door remote?

Some aftermarket remotes work with several brands, but none works with every opener. Some newer openers only accept genuine remotes. Check your opener model on the product page.

What if I’ve lost my only remote?

You can still program a new one. The learning is done at the opener’s learn button, so you don’t need the old remote. While you’re there, you can clear the opener’s memory so the lost remote stops working, then program the remotes you still have.
