GateRemotes Ltd

Replacement remotes for gates, garage doors and barriers

GateRemotes Ltd is an online retailer specialising in replacement remote controls for electric gates, garage doors, automated bollards, parking barriers and shutters. The company presents itself as a UK supplier and states that it can provide most types of replacement remote controls from manufacturers such as Hormann. Its catalogue is organised around the remote itself rather than the installation, and every remote it sells is described as programmable by the buyer.

The range extends beyond gate and garage remotes to include universal TV remotes, wall and dashboard holders, and a universal cloning remote that the site says can clone any 433MHz fixed-code remote. Through the associated site Electricgatemotors.co.uk, the company also indicates that it supplies electric gate spares, complete kits, intercoms and wireless security alarms.

Identifying the right remote before buying

Because compatibility depends on the existing handset, the shop offers three routes to find a match. The first is a keyword search. The second is a filter that narrows products by manufacturer, number of buttons, button colour and casing colour. The third allows a customer to upload a photograph of the front of their current remote, together with name, email, phone and a message, and a member of the team responds with the remote needed. Uploads are limited to 10MB.

The manufacturer filter lists brands and product families including Eurodrive, Comunello, PDT, Miscellaneous and Key, alongside categories for wall and dashboard holders, universal TV remotes and air conditioner remotes.

Programming support and documentation

Remotes are supplied with written step-by-step programming instructions, and the website also hosts videos showing how to set them up. For buyers who cannot locate a specific remote or who need help configuring one, the team offers assistance by phone, email and a live chat during office hours; outside those hours the chat accepts messages for a later reply. A contact form is also available.

Delivery and customer feedback

The site advertises free UK delivery on orders over £50. Customer comments published on the page describe next-day arrivals, programming completed within minutes and instructions described as clear and easy to follow; these are individual testimonials rather than an aggregate rating.
