A pack of two M12 4-button remote controls for opening and closing automatic gates and garage doors. Each fob is pocket-sized (55 × 30 × 10 mm), clips onto your keys and gives you up to 20 metres of range – enough to open the gate from the car as you pull into the drive.
The M12 is the standard remote for TOPENS swing gate, sliding gate and garage door openers, so it is the right choice if you need a spare, a replacement or extra remotes for the family.
Key features
Four buttons, four openers – buttons A–D can each be paired to a different operator, so one fob can run your gate and your garage door.
Secure code – TOPENS encrypted security code helps stop the signal being copied.
Up to 20 m range – open the gate before you reach it.
Quick pairing – learn the remote to the control board in a few seconds using the board's learn button.
Works in all weathers – rated for −20 °C to +50 °C.
Two remotes in the pack – one for each driver, or one to keep as a spare.
Which openers does it work with?
TOPENS gate and garage door openers – pairs directly with the control board. One TOPENS opener can store up to 8 M12 remotes.
Other brands – works with most third-party openers whose control board has a push-button input that accepts a "normally open dry contact" signal. You will need a TOPENS ERM12 external receiver (sold separately) wired to that input; the ERM12 runs on 9–24 V DC and can store up to 250 remotes.
Not sure whether your opener has a push-button input? Briefly bridge the two push-button terminals on the control board with a short piece of wire. If the gate moves, the M12 will work with an ERM12 receiver.
One remote, several gates
Because each button is programmed separately, a single M12 can control:
up to four swing gate openers, or
one sliding gate and two swing gates, or
three sliding gates (two of them via an ERM12 receiver each).

Frequently asked questions
Will this remote work with my existing gate opener?
It pairs directly with TOPENS gate and garage door openers. For other brands you need an ERM12 external receiver connected to the push-button terminals of your control board.
How do I pair the remote?
Press the learn button on your opener's control board, then press the M12 button you want to use. The manual included in the pack shows the exact steps for each TOPENS model.
Can I use one button for the gate and another for the garage?
Yes. Each of the four buttons is paired independently, so you can assign them to different openers.
