I haven't had my garage door openers in years and just use the button on the inside. What is the cheapest option for two remotes. I would also like either a keypad for the outside for kids or whoever or a third remote

home depot, amazon, lowes will carry openers for most major garage door manufacturers. the openers come with preset codes (most can be changed (3-4 digit pin) ) if you open them up. you can program your opener to accept the new opener by following its own instructions in the manual.

My lift is old as hell, the box that opens the garage says Touch N Go model 100 and the remote said Lift Master

following.

my lift is ancient as well. Since the day we moved in we've haven't had a remote (15 years ago) and the lift is probably 30+ years old.

So get a lift master universal remote. Then open up the receiver and look for the dip switches to set the codes so they match up. Possible it's a rolling code but if it's as old as you claim that's pretty unlikely.

Might be a headache honestly.

I know in my vehicles, the brand new garage opener of mine needs some sort of crazy attachment to read vehicles onboard garage openers from 2006-older or something like that.
