LiftMaster 893MAX 3-Pack 3-Button Visor Remote Control
The LiftMaster 893MAX 3-Pack is a multi-remote bundle of full-size 3-button visor remote controls from the LiftMaster MAX remote family. Each 893MAX remote can operate up to three compatible devices, which may include garage door openers, gate operators, commercial door operators, access-control receivers, or myQ light accessories when the receiving equipment supports the remote. This pack is a good fit for households with multiple vehicles, property managers, gated homes, service departments, and commercial sites that want visor-mounted remotes for several users.
The 893MAX is one of the most commonly used LiftMaster replacement remote families because it covers a wide range of LiftMaster-style learn-button garage door opener systems made after January 1, 1993. It supports the major learn-button/code families found on many LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Sears Craftsman, Raynor, Master Mechanic, Do-It, True Value, and related Chamberlain Group style openers. It is frequently used when replacing older 80 Series, 970 Series, and 370 Series remotes, provided the opener or receiver technology matches.
The main difference between the 893MAX and 890MAX is the physical format. The 893MAX is the visor-style version, so it is better for vehicles where the remote stays clipped inside the car or truck. The 890MAX is the smaller keychain-style remote. Both are part of the MAX programming family, but they should not be confused with the 893LM. The 893LM is a Security+ 2.0 yellow-learn-button remote, while the 893MAX is the broader MAX remote used across multiple supported learn-button technologies.

Technician Note
The 893MAX is usually the right call when the customer wants a visor-mounted replacement remote that can cover several LiftMaster-style learn-button generations. It should still be matched by receiver technology, not by button count alone. A 3-button remote from another generation may look similar, but a yellow-only 893LM, older 373LM, older 973LM, and 893MAX are not automatically interchangeable in every application. Check the opener learn button, the existing receiver model, and whether the customer needs a visor remote or the smaller 890MAX keychain style.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the opener or receiver uses a supported green, orange/red, purple, or yellow circle learn button.
- Confirm the customer wants visor-style remotes rather than mini keychain-style 890MAX remotes.
- Confirm the system is not an old DIP-switch or unsupported fixed-code receiver.
- For gate, commercial door, and access-control use, confirm the receiver is 315 MHz or 390 MHz and supports Learn button programming.
- Confirm the correct pack quantity: this listing is for 3 893MAX remote controls.
- Program and test every remote button from a safe location with the door or gate in full view.
Professional Advisory
Keep remote controls out of reach of children. Program and test remotes only when the door or gate is in full view, the opening is properly adjusted, and the travel path is clear. Never use a remote to work around a missing or failed safety device. If a gate or commercial door operator requires receiver wiring changes, board access, or high-voltage troubleshooting, use a qualified technician instead of attempting unsafe repairs.
Q&A
Why choose the 893MAX 3-pack?
The 3-pack is useful for households, gated homes, property staff, or service vehicles that need multiple visor-style remotes for supported LiftMaster-style systems.
Can all three 893MAX remotes be set up for the same three doors?
Yes, if the openers or receivers support the 893MAX and have available memory. Each remote and each button must be programmed.
Does the 893MAX work with gate operators?
It may work with select gate operators or access-control receivers using supported 315 MHz or 390 MHz Learn button technology. Verify the receiver model before ordering.
What learn-button colors are covered by the 893MAX?
The 893MAX is commonly associated with green, orange/red, purple, and yellow circle learn-button applications when the opener or receiver supports that technology.
Will these remotes work with old DIP-switch openers?
No. The 893MAX is for supported learn-button systems and is not intended for old DIP-switch receivers.
