Quick Guide: Choosing the Right Alarm Remote

  • Check frequency: Most SA remotes are 403MHz or 433MHz - confirm your panel's requirement.
  • Code type: Rolling code offers better security; fixed code is suited for legacy systems. Always match your receiver's format.
  • Number of buttons: Single vs multi-channel remotes for multiple zones/gates.
  • Housing durability: Higher-traffic environments (schools, complexes) benefit from ruggedized remotes.
Brand Frequency Buttons Compatible With
Centurion 433MHz 1/2/4 Gate, alarm, garage
Sherlo/Sherlotronics 403MHz/433MHz 1/2/4 Alarm, access
Nemtek 433MHz 1/2 Fence, alarm

Pairing & Setup Notes

Each brand uses its own quick-learn or pairing method. For most modern remotes, the process involves pressing a 'learn' button on the panel or receiver, then activating the remote to complete setup. Refer to the included instructions or visit your nearest branch for advice if unsure.

  • Most remotes ship with batteries and setup leaflets; check the product page for inclusions.
  • Bulk/education orders: Ask about procurement and quote support for tertiary, residential, or industrial requirements.
  • For niche/legacy models, Communica can check stock or suggest alternatives.
Tip: Always test remotes before handover; faulty or unpaired units are easily resolved at branch counters.
