# How do I pair two remote controls to the same motor?

Want to add a second remote control to your existing opener? Here's how it works.
Most openers accept several remote controls registered at the same time — the principle is similar to the initial programming.

### 🧭 Before you start

The pairing procedure depends **entirely on the model of your opener**. See our tutorial [Programming a Novoferm remote control](https://youtu.be/JDHsz7i37Vk) for a concrete example of the process.

### 📋 The general principle

1. Identify the exact model of your opener.
2. Check that the new remote control is **compatible** with that model (see "How do I program or reprogram my remote control?").
3. Follow the pairing procedure specific to your opener, which generally lets you add a remote control without erasing the previous ones.
> ⚠️ **Be careful with actions that reset the receiver's memory**: on some models, an incorrect action erases all the remote controls already registered, not just the one being added.
👉 **And then?** Tell us the model of your opener: we'll send you the exact procedure to add a remote control without losing the others.
