Product Information

The 3-button remote controls models 890MAX, 893MAX, and 895MAX are designed to be used as replacement remote controls for LiftMaster garage door openers. They are compatible with 315 MHz or 390 MHz garage door openers manufactured after January 1, 1993. These remotes can also be used with gate operators, commercial door operators, or other products that operate at 315 MHz or 390 MHz and have a Learn button.

The models available are:

  • 890MAX
  • 893MAX

Please note that the product is equipped with LEDs for programming indication.

It is important to ensure that the garage door opener has a working light bulb as it serves as a programming indicator. Additionally, to prevent any accidents, it is essential to make sure that the LED on the opener is seen clearly, properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to the door’s travel.

Furthermore, the product comes with a warning that it may expose users to chemicals including lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm.
