Two-pack 433MHz cloning key fobs for garage doors and gates
How the cloning process actually works
These fobs copy the signal of an existing working remote rather than pairing with the receiver directly. To program one, you first reset it by holding buttons A and B together for three seconds until the light flashes quickly, then hold it close to your original remote so it can learn the code. The catch every buyer should understand: cloning only works on fixed-code transmitters, and this unit is not compatible with rolling code remotes. Supported IC codes include PT2262, PT2260, PT2264, PT1527, PT2242, HT600, HT680, HT6207, HT6010, HT6012, HT6014, AX5326-4 and AX5326-3, so check what chip family your original uses. Fixed-code systems were common on older gates, sheds and aftermarket receivers, which is exactly where these cloners earn their keep.
Frequencies, range and build
Operating frequencies of 315MHz and 433MHz are supported, with a control range of up to 100 metres in open conditions — more than enough to open a gate from the end of a rural driveway. Each fob measures a compact 55mm x 33mm x 15mm and weighs about 30 grams, and key rings are supplied for both so they travel on a keychain without fuss. Getting two in the pack means both drivers in a household can carry a duplicate, or one can live in the glovebox as a backup. The indicator light on each fob confirms transmission, which helps when diagnosing whether a fob or the receiver is at fault.
Where this fob fits among other options
A single 433MHz cloning key fob suits anyone who only needs one duplicate. If your opener runs a brand-specific rolling code system, cloning will not help — a dedicated unit such as the Guardian 21230 21230L garage remote is the right tool there, while the AOID universal garage remote cloner handles a much broader catalogue of brands. Confirming your existing remote is fixed-code before ordering is the single most useful compatibility check you can do. When in doubt, the brand and model of your opener is usually printed on the motor housing or in its manual, and that detail settles the question.

Frequently asked questions
Will these fobs copy my existing garage remote?
Only if your existing remote is a fixed-code transmitter on 315MHz or 433MHz using a supported IC code, such as PT2262, PT2260, PT2264, PT1527, PT2242, the HT600 family, AX5326-4 or AX5326-3. Rolling code remotes, which most modern branded openers use, cannot be cloned by this unit. If you are unsure which type you have, check your opener's manual or email the store first.
How do I program the cloning key fob?
Start by resetting the fob: press buttons A and B together for about three seconds until the light flashes quickly, clearing any stored code. Then place the fob next to your original working remote and follow the pairing steps, pressing the matching buttons so the new fob learns the signal. The process takes a couple of minutes and needs no tools or receiver access.
What range can I expect from these remotes?
The stated remote control range is up to 100 metres in open conditions, though walls, metal doors and interference will reduce that in practice. Each unit is compact at 55mm x 33mm x 15mm and weighs around 30 grams, with key rings included for both fobs in the pack, so range and portability both hold up well for everyday gate and garage use.
Can I return them if my remote turns out to be rolling code?
Yes, The Remote Factory provides a 30-day return policy, so an incompatible purchase can be returned within that period. To avoid the round trip, contact support at contact@theremotefactory.com.au with your opener brand and model before buying. Orders are dispatched within 24 hours, and standard Australian delivery takes roughly 1 to 5 working days.
