Firmamatic Advanced Upgrade Kit – Remote Replacement Solution
The Firmamatic Upgrade Kit is the ideal solution for restoring remote access to older B&D EasyLifter overhead garage door openers where original remotes are no longer reliable.
This upgrade kit replaces outdated receiver technology with a modern, secure system, allowing you to pair new remotes and regain full control of your garage door—without replacing the entire opener.
This upgrade kit uses the Elsema PCR43301RE receiver with PentaFOB® remotes to deliver a highly reliable and secure solution. Unlike basic universal receivers, this system features frequency switching technology (FHSS) to actively avoid interference, reduce dropouts, and maximise operating range.
With the added benefit of unlimited remote storage, it’s a future-proof upgrade—perfect for homes, businesses, or shared access without the limitations of standard receivers.
