Genuine Grifco Wall Button

About the Genuine Grifco Wall Button

Two channels means one plate operates two openers. A workshop with a roller door at each end, a warehouse with a door and a gate, or a house with a garage and a driveway entry can all be run from a single control point rather than two. It transmits rather than running back to the motor on a cable, so it mounts at whichever door people actually walk through instead of wherever an installer once ran the wiring.

The compatibility list is considerably wider than the Grifco name suggests, and this is the part worth reading. It takes in the Grifco 2.0 range in E-Drive, LR-Drive, LS-Drive and S-Drive form. It covers the Chamberlain CR625EVO HandyLift Plus 2.0, the CR655MYQ Rollerlift, the CS60EVO Powerlift and the CS100EVO Powerlift Plus. It covers the Commander range as MS65MYQ Essential, MS105MYQ Elite, MS125MYQ Extreme, MJ3800MYQ Ultimate and MT110MYQ myQ. It covers the Silentdrive and Quietdrive units MR650EVO, MR655EVO, MR655MYQ, MR850EVO, MR855EVO and MR855MYQ, along with the MR550EVO Weatherdrive, the MRC950EVO Overdrive, the MT100EVO Tiltmaster, the MT120EVOPS CyclonePro, the MT3850EVO Whisperdrive, the MT50EVO EntryLift and the MT60EVO Powerace. It also covers the Steel-Line ST50EVOB, ST50EVOB1 and ST50EVOC, and it codes alongside the E943, E943G, E945, E945G, E950M and E960G remotes.

Read that list again if your motor is not a Grifco. A Grifco badged wall button will run a Chamberlain, Commander, Silentdrive or Steel-Line motor of the same generation, so somebody shopping for a wall control on one of those openers should not scroll past this because of the brand on the box. On the four Chamberlain units that is a check Allgate has confirmed directly rather than a conclusion drawn from a table, and it is worth stating outright because the handhelds do not share it. Neither Grifco handset we supply will code to a Chamberlain CR or CS unit, and both of those listings say so plainly. This wall control will. So on a Chamberlain opener of this generation a wall plate is open to you where a Grifco pocket remote is not.

The coding is rolling, so a fresh code is produced on each press and a signal captured once is of no use afterwards. On a wall control that sits in a garage rather than in a pocket, that matters less for theft of the signal and more for the fact that it will never fall out of step with a receiver that has moved on.

It takes one CR2032, supplied and fitted, with a tool needed to lift the cover. Mounting hardware is in the box, so the only thing you are likely to need is a drill for masonry.

Two buttons is the ceiling here. If a site needs three or four openers driven from one position, say so before ordering, because the answer is a different unit rather than two plates mounted side by side.
