LiftMaster Garage Door Remote Program

Your LiftMaster Garage Door Remote Program Guide

Your new garage door was just installed, and you’re thrilled to start using it. Before you can do that, though, you need to program your remote if you’ve opted for a universal remote.

If you’re not tech-savvy, don’t worry: it’s easier than you might think. Follow these instructions for popular LiftMaster remotes to complete your LiftMaster garage door remote program setup.

LiftMaster 375UT

For this model, start with the garage door closed. Then follow these instructions:

  • Slide down the battery cover. Press and hold the program button for about two seconds, until the light at the top of the remote lights up.
  • Press and release the “Smart/Learn” button on your garage door opener.
  • Press and release the opener button on your remote. At this point, the light on the remote should stop flashing. Press and release the button over and over, making sure the light stops flashing between each press. Keep doing this until your garage door opener indicates that it’s connected by sounding a click or a beep, lighting up a light on the opener, or opening and closing the door. The remote is coded to connect with each model of garage door opener after a certain number of button presses, so when you reach that number, your remote will automatically connect. The maximum number of presses is 18.
  • Press the program button again and close the remote.

  • Press any other button on the remote to exit programming mode.
  • Press the “Learn” button on your garage door opener.
  • Press and release the button you just programmed, and continue doing this until you hear a click or other indicator from your garage door opener that it’s connected. At this point, the programming is complete.
