Universal Garage Door Opener Keypad for Liftmaster Chamberlain Craftsman Wayne Dalton Openers Produced Since 1993, Wireless Keypad Keyless Entry, Replaces 877/878MAX 377/977/877/66LM, Safe Security

This replaced my Chamberlain garage door keypad. The keypad came neatly packed in the box along with the instructions for installation and 2 screws. The battery was not connected, but it was in the battery compartment upon arrival. It took me less than 10 minutes to install this from the time I opened the box until the keypad was in place on the wall. The keypad was easy to program, and it worked well the first time and every subsequent time. It’s been used multiple times now without any issues. The keypad beeps each time you press a number and when you press enter. I really like this feature because you know it is registering the touch of each button. My only complaint would be the font size of the instructions in some sections. I had to take a picture with my phone and zoom in to read one part. Overall a great keypad and a less expensive option than the original manufacturer’s keypad.

I had a need to replace my OEM garage door keypad from Liftmaster as the keypad had become non-responsive. This was the second time I needed to replace this in the 6 years since installation. In both instances the keypad had become less and less responsive over time. Before buying this unit I looked into the cost of the OEM replacement on Amazon and it was approximately $50. To me that was quite expensive especially as it appeared the unit wouldn’t last for that long. After a little research I opted for this unit based on >800 reviews and roughly 4.5 star rating. My experience of the install was great. Took me less than 5 minutes for the install including detachment of the defective old unit. I think the instructions were pretty clear. In my case on my Liftmaster motor unit on the garage ceiling there was a “learn” button that had to be pressed following activation of the new keypad. I found this process to take no more than 30 seconds and the unit was paired. I then lifted the front panel of the old defunct unit and removed the battery and unscrewed it to allow detachment from the frame of my garage door. I took the new unit that is previously paired, removed the battery then situated in exactly the same manner as the non functioning old unit. I found that the alignment was perfect so I just used the OEM screw id previously removed to screw the new unit to the garage door frame l, put the battery back in, cover back on and then entered my passcode to test door closure then pressed enter again to reopen. The unit worked perfectly. In terms of quality I’d say the plastic gauge is thicker than the original and feels high quality. I personally think it will be as robust as the original if not more so. A feature that I think is a big improvement over the original is that when the code is entered there is an audible beep sound, on the OEM you don’t hear this so the keys I think get pressed harder “to be sure” that the keys are activated and I think that this in turn leads to the keypad failing over time. As consequence I think the ability to hear a key being pressed will actually contribute to the longevity of this unit. The keypad is also backlit but instead of a yellow backlighting this units is redder and I think easier to see in the bright sunshine as well as at night. Overall I’m very pleased I didn’t spend the extra $30 for the OEM and think this a better value and an improvement on that. If this unit lasts only 3 years like the OEM as at $20 it’s a bargain; I’d say though that I’m optimistic it’ll last for at least five if not more. A good buy folks….highly recommend.

As a 60 something year-old woman I was able to pull off the programming and installation without a hitch. My old garage door opener keypad stopped responding because it was 30 years old. I ordered this and followed the directions exactly and it worked perfectly. I was not able to reuse any of the holes in the concrete block from the previous keypad. So I got out my masonry drill bits and drilled two new holes, using the two anchors and screws included to reattach it. I was afraid my cars would need to be reprogrammed, but they did not. This went much more smoothly than I ever dreamed possible. It includes a battery, although it is not alkaline so I will probably have to switch it out sooner than I would if I had just replaced it with an alkaline. It is a slightly smaller size than the keypad I previously had and opens and shuts easily. Great replacement product for my 30 year old lift master chamberlain model.

Easy to install. Fits exactly in place of original. Easy directions. Works.

This keypad worked exactly as intended as a replacement for a LiftMaster branded unit that stopped working. The housing is an exact match to the original, and it fit perfectly using the existing screw holes with no modification required. Installation took only a few minutes, and the keypad programmed to the garage door opener on the first attempt using the standard procedure. Daily operation has been reliable, with consistent response and no missed inputs. The buttons feel solid and the layout matches the original keypad, which made the transition seamless. For a fraction of the cost of the branded replacement, this keypad delivers the same functionality and fit. It is a practical, well made solution for anyone replacing an older LiftMaster, Chamberlain, or Craftsman keypad.

After our original 23-year-old Craftsman keypad finally gave out, I tried this Gioaty Universal model as a replacement. If you are struggling with a keypad that won't respond even with new batteries, this is a great solution. Compatibility & Setup: Our opener has the Red Learn Button, and this synced up perfectly. The instructions are printed a bit small, but the process is very straightforward: Set your desired 4-digit code on the keypad. Press the Learn button on the garage motor unit. Enter your code on the keypad and hit 'Enter.' Performance: The response time is instant. A great feature that our OEM model lacked is an audible beep when you press the buttons. It provides immediate feedback so you know the keypress was registered. Quality: Honestly, the build quality feels superior to the original manufacturer’s version. It’s impressive that a modern universal remote works this seamlessly with a 20+ year-old system. Highly recommended for a quick and easy fix.

UPDATE: Now that I’ve used this a few times, I’m disappointed in the one touch close functionality. I have a detached garage, so I am reliant on the keypad both entering and leaving the garage. While the keypad does have one touch close, it only works if you close the door pretty much immediately after you open it. That’s basically useless. Come home from buying groceries and need to unload the car? Forget it. You’ll need to enter the code to close the door when you’re done. Mow the lawn or blow snow off the driveway? Forget being able to close the door without entering the code when you’re done. I don’t know if this is a design flaw in this particular remote, or if it’s not possible for a universal remote to work well enough for the system to close a door after the keypad goes to sleep. Regardless, I guess I’ll be looking into whether I can buy a Liftmaster brand keypad for my model of opener. This may be less of an issue if you have an attached garage and don’t use the keypad to close the door. Then again, it will still be an issue if you like to leave the door open when mowing, or whatever. ******* When I first installed this, I was disappointed that I had to enter my pin to close my garage door. My original keypad just needed the enter button pushed to close. I’m really glad I thought to look at the instructions inside the box and not just the ones inside the keypad cover. After programming the keypad, you can enable one touch close by pressing 9 and 1 simultaneously and holding for ten seconds. Once I did that, now I just need to push the enter button once to close the door. Yay! I’m really happy with this keypad. My original liftmaster keypad from 2007 hasn’t been working well for a couple of years and stopped working altogether last week. The guy who usually helps me with stuff around the house isn’t around suddenly, so I thought I was going to have to call a garage door company, and how many hundreds would this cost?!? A bit of Googling, and I leaned the keypad buttons eventually wear out. The flaky behavior of the buttons that didn’t go away with battery replacement definitely seemed to fit that cause. However, I still didn’t realize I could fix this easily and nearly called a garage door company. A bit more googling, though, and I found a video showing someone replacing a keypad with a universal one. Hmm. That seemed worth watching. There’s just one screw to unscrew under the battery, then you slide the keypad up to remove it from the screw sitting behind the keypad. Then you just put the new keypad over that screw, slide down, and screw in the one screw under the battery. Hoy cow, I thought. I have a screw driver and more than half a brain. I think I can do this! I did. In ten minutes. The instructions for programming the keypad are on the keypad cover, and also in more detail on a sheet that comes in the box. There are different instructions for different years of garage door openers, but for most of them, it’s as easy as looking at the color of the learn button on the garage door opener, then looking at a table in the instructions to see how many times to push enter on the keypad at one of the steps when following the instructions. I did all the programming before I attached the keypad to the side of the garage. Just stood on a stepstool so I could reach the opener and followed the instructions. Worked easily the first time. This repair I’ve been dreading was so ridiculously easy that I don’t know if what I did even counts as a repair. All I know is that I’m glad I bought this keypad, and other than initially not realizing I could activate one touch close, I had no problems at all. I don’t know what a garage door company would have charged, but I know it would have been more than the $28 I spent on this opener. Ten minutes of my life well spent, especially as winter is arriving!

We recently moved into a new house and whilst there is a control on the inside of the garage, we wanted one on the outside so people can come in through the garage. Also acting as a back up incase no one has keys! True to its word, this worked perfectly with our Lift Master. Syncing it was easy and the instructions were straight forward. The equivalent Lift Master one was over $60. You don't need to pay that!!
