How much it costs to replace a garage door keypad depends on type of keypad, brand, and whether you DIY or hire professional, but typical costs are modest compared to opener replacement. For DIY replacement, a wireless garage door keypad costs 30 to 60 dollars at home improvement stores like Home Depot, Lowes, or online, with LiftMaster 877MAX, Chamberlain KLIK2U, Genie, and universal Clicker keypads in that range, while keypads with more features like fingerprint or smartphone control cost 60 to 100 dollars. Battery included but replacement battery costs 3 to 10 dollars. Installation is DIY by mounting keypad outside garage with screws provided and programming to opener by pressing Learn button on opener motor unit and entering new PIN and pressing Enter within 30 seconds. For professional replacement, cost includes service call fee of 75 to 150 dollars plus keypad cost of 30 to 60 dollars, bringing total to 100 to 200 dollars for professional keypad replacement, including programming and testing. Some companies charge flat rate of 120 to 180 dollars for keypad replacement. If you have lost all keypads and remotes and need opener memory erased, professional may include that in service call. Emergency or same-day service may cost extra 50 dollars. Getting multiple estimates ensures fair pricing. Replacement keypad restores convenience of PIN entry without key and lasts 5 to 10 years, so cost is worthwhile compared to being locked out.
