# Garage Door Opener Batteries & Backups

**Garage door opener batteries and backup systems** keep your opener running reliably and ensure access even during a power outage. Replacement batteries maintain proper operation of remotes, keypads, and safety systems, while backup units allow the opener to function when electricity is unavailable.

**Types of replacements:**

-   **Remote/keypad batteries** – coin-cell or 9V batteries for handheld remotes and wireless keypads.
-   **Opener backup batteries** – rechargeable packs installed in compatible openers for operation during power loss.

_Tip:_ Always check your opener’s **model number** and your remote/keypad’s **battery type** before ordering.
