Specifications

Key-Operated Garage Door Control

This key switch allows an authorized user to activate a compatible garage door opener or gate operator using a physical key.

It can be useful where:

• A handheld remote is not practical

• Exterior keyed access is preferred

• A secondary operator control is needed

• A detached garage requires outside activation

• A compatible gate or access system requires keyed control

• An existing key switch needs replacement

Durable Metal Construction

Unlike basic plastic controls, this unit uses a metal cylinder and metal mounting plate for a durable exterior installation.

The compact design provides a clean, simple control point without requiring a large wall station or keypad.

Flush-Mount Installation

The switch is designed for flush-mount installation, allowing the mounting plate to sit neatly against the finished surface.

Typical applications may include mounting near:

• Residential garage doors

• Exterior garage walls

• Gate control locations

• Workshops

• Storage buildings

• Other compatible operator access points

The mounting location should allow safe operation while keeping the moving garage door or gate fully visible.

Two Keys Included

The key switch includes two matching keys, giving the owner a primary key and a spare.

Additional key requirements or keyed-alike installations should be confirmed before ordering multiple switches.

It may be suitable for many operator brands when the control input and wiring requirements are compatible.
