One Remote For Garage And Gate
Customer in Port Coquitlam wanted to stop carrying two remotes. We added a LiftMaster receiver to a DEA sliding gate operator and paired her existing 893MAX garage remote — same button now opens both.
Use one LiftMaster remote for both your garage door and your gate. We install, program and integrate gate remotes for every major brand — Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam & Port Moody.
If you already have a LiftMaster garage door remote, you do not need a second remote for your driveway gate. We install a universal LiftMaster receiver on your existing gate opener — even if the gate is a DEA, FAAC, BFT, CAME, DoorKing or Viking — and program your LiftMaster garage remote to control both.
One remote, one visor clip, one button to come home. The receiver wires directly into the gate operator's low-voltage input, so there is no impact on your gate's existing safety circuits or warranty.
Most installs take under an hour. Here is exactly what we do on site:
We confirm the make, model and control board of your gate motor — sliding or swing, residential or commercial — and verify the receiver input is available.
We mount a LiftMaster 850LM or 860LM Security+ 2.0 universal receiver inside the gate operator enclosure and wire it into the low-voltage open command terminals.
We pair your current LiftMaster garage door remote (or MyQ app) with the new receiver, test the gate from full range, and walk you through adding more remotes yourself later.
A look at real gate jobs we have completed across Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam and Port Moody:

Customer in Port Coquitlam wanted to stop carrying two remotes. We added a LiftMaster receiver to a DEA sliding gate operator and paired her existing 893MAX garage remote — same button now opens both.

The original 12-year-old gate motor on this Coquitlam home had failed limit switches and a burnt control board. We replaced the operator, reset the travel limits, and reprogrammed the homeowner's remotes and keypad.

Clean low-voltage tie-in to the gate operator's open and common terminals. We label every wire so any future technician can troubleshoot the install in seconds.

Full system diagnostic on a multi-unit strata sliding gate — we cleared a corrupted memory, re-programmed all 24 resident remotes and re-keyed the entry keypad in under two hours.
We carry receivers, remotes and replacement boards for every major brand sold in BC. If you do not see your brand here, call us — if it is on the market in Canada we have probably worked on it.

Yes. We install a LiftMaster 850LM or 860LM universal gate receiver on your gate operator and pair it to your existing LiftMaster remote. Any LiftMaster remote made after 2011 with the yellow learn button (Security+ 2.0) is compatible — one remote then controls both your garage door and your gate.
Yes. The LiftMaster gate receiver is brand-agnostic. It connects to the gate operator's low-voltage open input — the same terminals an intercom or push button uses — so it works on DEA, FAAC, BFT, CAME, DoorKing, Viking and any other operator with a standard dry-contact open command.
For most homes in Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam and Port Moody, gate remote programming starts from $149 including the trip charge. We give a firm quote before starting any work.
A standard remote add takes 10–15 minutes once we are on site. A universal LiftMaster receiver install on a residential sliding or swing gate is typically 45–60 minutes. Strata and multi-unit programming for 20+ remotes takes 1–2 hours depending on the access system.
Usually not. Most gate operators clear remote memory or trip a fault after a long outage. We can re-pair your existing remote and clear the fault on site — replacement is only needed if the remote itself is physically damaged or has a dead non-replaceable battery.
Yes. We work with strata managers and building owners across the Tri-Cities to program, delete and re-issue remotes for residents. We document every remote ID, hand over a tracking spreadsheet and can return for ongoing tenant turnover programming.
