When it comes to purchasing new remotes for your vehicle or gate/garage systems, the choice between genuine and aftermarket options can be a daunting one. At Terry’s Locksmiths, we want to help you make an informed decision by breaking down the key factors to consider.
One of the first considerations is the price. Genuine remotes can often cost twice as much as their aftermarket counterparts, even when both perform the same functions. For budget-conscious consumers, this difference can be significant.
Quality is another crucial factor. Many aftermarket remotes function almost identically to genuine ones, making it unnecessary to pay a premium for a brand name. However, it’s important to ensure that the aftermarket remote you’re considering is of high quality.
Most reputable locksmiths stand behind their products and sell only tested quality aftermarket remotes. If you’re purchasing online, it can be challenging to gauge the quality of what you’re buying. Always check reviews or testimonials to gain insight into the product’s reliability.
Interestingly, in some cases, we have found that certain aftermarket remotes—priced at half the cost of the genuine counterparts—actually outperform the originals. This can lead to substantial savings without sacrificing quality.
With so many options available, it may be beneficial to consult a few different locksmiths. Not only can you compare prices, but you may also gain valuable insights into which products other customers have had success with. This can help you feel more confident in your purchase.
Terry’s Locksmiths offers a wide range of genuine and aftermarket remotes for vehicles and gate/garage systems. Our team is committed to providing high-quality products and services that meet your specific needs. We pride ourselves on our honest, reliable, and professional service.
