Two-pack universal garage remotes

This two-pack supplies two vtech 893max remotes compatible with LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Sears and Craftsman openers that have purple, red, orange, yellow or green learn buttons manufactured since 1993. The remotes replace part numbers 371LM, 373LM, 971LM, 973LM, 81LM, 83LM, 891LM, 893LM, 893Max, 890Max and 895Max. They do not work with Security+ 3.0 white-button openers produced in 2026 or with dip-switch models.

Rolling code security under daily use

A third-generation core chip drives the rolling code system, updating the transmission code each cycle to reduce hacking risk. The supplier cites 100,000-plus cycle experiments to confirm the remotes maintain constant function through repeated daily operation. Each unit ships with a pre-fitted CR2032 lithium battery and a visor clip for immediate installation.

Learn-button pairing limits

Programming requires pressing the opener's learn button then the remote button, completing the link in under two minutes without specialist tools. The process only works on openers equipped with the specified colour learn buttons; Security+ 3.0 white-button units and legacy dip-switch systems cannot be paired. The package includes a step-by-step manual for the supported models.

Questions about this item

Does the remote draw much power or generate heat when used daily?

Each remote runs on a single CR2032 lithium cell and only transmits briefly when a button is pressed, so there is no continuous power draw or noticeable heat.

What must already be on my garage door opener for these remotes to pair?

The opener needs a purple, red, orange, yellow or green learn button produced from 1993 onward; white Security+ 3.0 buttons and dip-switch models are not supported.

Will the 893max work alongside my older 971LM and 81LM remotes?

Yes — the 893max replaces 971LM, 973LM, 81LM, 83LM and several other part numbers, so it can operate on the same opener with those older remotes.
