It goes without saying that your garage secures your home and your vehicles. But which garage door opener remotes are best? Nowadays, many homeowners choose universal garage door remotes. Why?

A few reasons. Your Chicago home may have a 2-car garage with separate openers, and if each opener requires separate remote controls, you’ll waste your precious time switching between the two just to park your car. Another reason? You may have a 1-car garage. But say you replaced your broken opener with a new one from a different brand. You wouldn’t want to shell out your hard-earned cash for a new remote control, would you? Not a chance. For this reason, the universal garage door opener seems to be the way of the future.

Universal Garage Door Remote vs. Non-Universal Garage Door Remote

The advantage of going universal is consolidation. Why lug two or three garage door remotes around if one will do the trick? Save space on your car’s visor (or your car’s cupholder—you know who you are!) by choosing a universal garage door remote control.

What are the disadvantages of going universal, then? Garage doors, openers, and remotes are investments. We understand that. It may be expensive—and beyond your budget—to upgrade just for universality’s sake.

Another disadvantage of going universal? By choosing a conventional remote, you’ll know you’ll get the best connection. If you want the peace of mind that your garage door opener and its remote control will work in harmony, a conventional remote is the best option for you. If the conventional remote control for your garage door opener (and its motor) is still on the market today, conventional is the way to go.
