Are you looking for a new remote control for your garage door or barrier? Or do you want to know what functions modern remote controls offer? Then you've come to the right place at Tormeister24 !

What is a handheld transmitter and why is it important?
A handheld transmitter is a portable remote control that allows you to conveniently open or close your gate at the touch of a button. The transmitter communicates wirelessly with the receiver of your gate operator – without having to get out of your car. It not only brings convenience and efficiency , but also security to your everyday life.
What should you pay attention to when buying?
- Compatibility: Make sure that the remote control fits your gate operator or barrier model – brand-specific or universally programmable.
- Range: The radio range is important, especially for long driveways or large properties.
- Battery life: Choose a model with a long-lasting battery and easy replacement.
- Design & Ergonomics: Good haptics, clear button guidance and, where applicable, LED status display facilitate operation.
What types of handheld transmitters are there?
- Single-channel remote control: Ideal if you only want to control one gate or barrier.
- Multi-channel handheld transmitter: Control multiple gates with just one device – ideal for companies or larger properties.
- Universal handheld transmitters: Compatible with multiple brands – ideal for mixed systems.
- Brand-specific handheld transmitters: Developed specifically for Hörmann, Marantec, SOMMER & Co. – for the best signal quality & security.
How programming works
- Insert batteries – make sure your remote control is ready for use.
- Put the receiver into learning mode – usually via a button or menu on the drive.
- Press the button on the handheld transmitter – the programming is saved.
- Test function – whether the gate responds correctly to the hand-held transmitter.
If necessary, you can find detailed instructions in the user manual or on the product page.
