Craftsman Garage Door Opener Types
There have been five vintages of Craftsman garage door openers since they started back in 1984. Each has its own radio wavelength, security features, etc. The downside, however, is that there is no one-size-fits-all universal garage door opener remote that works to replace all of them. But, as you can see above, you’re still able to find both the original remotes and some less expensive, generic replacement remotes for each.
Compatible Keyless Entry for Craftsman Garage Door Openers
While the remotes are different, all Craftsman garage door openers, with the exception of the older dip switch models, can use the same keyless entry. The Craftsman CMXZDCG440 works with all Craftsman garage door openers manufactured after 1993. If you’re not familiar with keyless entry, it’s a keypad device that’s typically installed just outside your garage door. It allows users to enter their code to open or close the garage door from outside without a remote control. They’re powered by batteries and communicate directly with the garage door opener using radio frequencies.
5 reasons to consider installing a keyless entry
1. When going for a jog or walk: Instead of carrying a bulky remote control or keys, you can use the keyless entry device to open and close your garage door. This allows you to conveniently enter or exit your home without having to worry about carrying anything with you.
2. When you have kids: If you have children who come and go from your home frequently, providing them with their own code can make it easier for them to enter and exit the garage. It can also provide peace of mind, as you can monitor who is entering and leaving your home.
3. When hosting guests: If you have guests coming over who need to access your garage, you can provide them with a temporary code to enter on the keypad. This allows them to enter and exit your home without having to give them a physical key or remote control.
4. When traveling: If you’re going on vacation or out of town for a few days, you can set a temporary code for your house sitter or neighbor to access your garage. This ensures that they can check on your home or take care of any necessary tasks while you’re away.
5. When working outside: If you’re working in your yard or doing other outdoor activities, it can be inconvenient to have to go inside to open and close the garage door. With a keyless entry device, you can easily open and close the garage door without having to stop what you’re doing or go inside the house.
