There is so many different brands of garage door openers and even more different models, it’s hard to find the right garage door keypad. You have to find the right keypad that is made for your brand and model of opener if you want to make it work. That can really be a pain in the butt.
Luckily, there is a very simple solution to this problem and is called Universal Garage Door Keypad. Universal garage door keypad is made to work with different types, brands, and models of a garage door and gate openers. Some even allow you to operate multiple different brand openers at the same time.
But before you go and grab one, you want to make sure it will work with your opener, because most of the universal garage door keypads are not 100% universal. Some will work with just a few brands, other will work with almost every opener you can find.

If you have any questions about any of this universal garage dor keypads, please leave me comment bellow.
My courier company has a Lifftmaster garagedoor opener. The keypad gets used many times a day with vans going in and out. Our Wisconsin weather is highly variable. our touchpad now needs to be pressed firmly and still does not always work. Can the pad be serviced. What would be a good replacement?
Depends on garage door opener model. Usually Chamberlain KLIK2U is pretty safe bet.
