Programming a Standard Liftmaster Garage Door Keypad
Wireless keypad garage door openers are among the top choices for security for your home or office garage and property. It’s a substantial investment that requires the installation and setup by following the programming instructions for your LiftMaster garage door opener. The type of programming depends on the keypad model you have and the type of functions you’ll need to set up.
How to Program the LiftMaster 877LM
There are two ways to program this device if you’ve just bought and installed a new LiftMaster 877LM. The method you use depends on whether you have a “Learn” button function on your garage opener keypad or a door-opening system with multiple functions.
To use the “Learn” button option, proceed as follows:
- Press, then release the “Learn” button, and you’ll notice the LED light on the display will illuminate for about 30 seconds.
- During the 30-second timeframe, enter a new PIN code on the keypad. The new code must have a minimum of four digits.
- Press and hold the “Enter” button until the lights flash on the garage overhead door opener, indicating that the programming is successful.
To program a door with multiple functions, follow these steps:
- Press the “Learn” button on the door keypad. Then, press the same button a second time, and you should notice the LED light flash just once.
- Enter a new code or PIN using your keypad.
- Press and hold down the “Enter” button until the LED lights flash on the garage door opener, indicating it’s ready
How to Program the LiftMaster 877Max
When you program a LiftMaster 877Max, follow these steps to set up your garage keypad:
- On the LiftMaster opener keypad, press the “*” and “#” buttons together and hold both until the lights on the keypad stop flashing.
- Enter a new PIN code with at least four digits you want to set as a password.
- Press the “#” button, then press the “Enter” button, and release this key up to four times, which varies based on the type of Liftmaster opener model you have.
- Press “0” to leave the programming mode on the keypad.
- Press, then release the “Learn” button located on the garage door opener
- Choose a four-digit PIN and enter this into the keypad, then press and release “Enter” several times until you hear the sound of two clicks or you notice a light bulb flash to signal that the programming is successfully complete.
Several types of LiftMaster 877Max garage openers vary in appearance, though they generally follow the exact instructions outlined above. These models include the 315 MHz Security +, which requires two presses to program and a “Learn” button that’s purple, a Security + 2.0, which has a yellow “Learn” button and requires just one press of the button, 390 MHz Billion Code, which contains a green “Learn” button and requires four presses of the button, and 390 MHz Security +, which is orange or red in color and must be pressed three times during the setup process.
How to Program the LiftMaster 387LM and 387LMC Models
When you program a LiftMaster 387LMC and 387LM models, different types of remotes require specific instructions, which are distinguished by the opener ID.
If your LiftMaster garage opener keypad has three-position DIP switches, it’s crucial to determine the type of opener you have, as this will give you the sequence of instructions needed to program your wireless system. For example, ID 19 has seven switches, ID 12 has nine switches, ID 15 has eight switches, and ID 11 has nine switches.
This type of garage door keypad opener is programmed as follows:
- Record the DIP switch sequence, which you’ll find in the position of “0”, “+,” or “-.”
- Hold the “#” and “*” buttons until the lights no longer flash
- Enter a new PIN code, at least four digits, then press “#.”
- Enter your ID number, and press “#.”
- The final step requires entering your DIP switch, as recorded, then press “#” to complete the programming.
If your LiftMaster keyless entry keypad has gray, white, or yellow “Smart” or “Learn” buttons, you must find the DIP switch sequence in the position of “0”, “+,” or “-” and follow these instructions:
- Press down and hold the “*” and “#” buttons until the lights no longer flash.
- Enter a new PIN code, four digits, then press “#.”
- Press “11”, then “#.”
- Enter the DIP switch recorded from your keypad, and press “#.”
- Press the “Smart” or “Learn” button on the garage opener, then enter your new PIN, and press “0” to complete the programming.
If your LiftMaster keypad has a different setup procedure, you’ll find details of the keypad’s set up in the product’s programming instructions. You’ll find the LiftMaster garage door opener code is generally easy to program and usually takes just a few minutes to set your new PIN or password.
