Weighing just 1.6 ounces, the Mini Universal Remote is easily portable for on-the-go activities, such as biking, walking the dog or driving a motorcycle.

"The Mini Universal Remote can go with you anywhere – whether it's clipped to your child's backpack for easy access to the home after school or to provide temporary access for a visiting relative, frequent guest, neighbor or babysitter."

Simple to program and compatible with more than 90 percent of garage door openers, the Mini Universal Remote Control features two independent buttons to allow the operation of two different garage doors. The Mini Universal Remote also offers optimal security benefits. With a functional and portable design, homeowners never have to worry about leaving a remote in the car, and with LiftMaster's built-in Security+ 2.0®, the remote has increased range and performance.
