They can be synced up with your opener to pass the correct security
code. You could not just use one, out of the box, to open any garage
door. Each garage door has a particular process for setting the codes.
Only the original, read very old, openers did not have some type of
security code setup.
Cordless phones are like this too. I had an original phone as a kid and
I remember driving around the neighborhood looking for dial-tone. Cant
do that anymore.
