If your Elite keypad stopped reading codes or your intercom crackles every time someone presses the call button, we can usually fix it in one visit. Most Elite keypad and intercom repairs in Las Vegas run between $185 and $420 installed, depending on whether we’re replacing a worn keypad membrane, a failed intercom speaker, or the full exterior station. The telltale sign: you punch in your code, hear the relay click, and the gate just sits there, or your visitor’s voice sounds like it’s coming from the bottom of a bathtub. That’s not a gate motor problem. That’s the part that talks to your gate motor.
Which Elite Models This Applies To
We service the keypad and intercom hardware on the Elite SL-3000, SL-5000, and the newer Mirage series slide gate operators, plus the Elite Swing gate line. The keypad you have is likely a standalone Elite KP-100 or the integrated keypad built into the Mirage faceplate, while the intercom is usually the Elite Classic or the flush-mount Elite Entry Pro two-wire unit. The Model SL-3000 and the Mirage MG series share most keypad housings, but the intercom wiring differs: the Mirage runs a 4-wire shielded pair where the older Classic only needs two. The label inside the keypad housing tells you which generation you have. We carry OEM Elite parts and a solid aftermarket equivalent for most wear items. For keypads and intercoms specifically, we’ll only install an aftermarket part if we’ve verified it reads the same voltage and matches the same connector pinouts, because an Elite board does not forgive a mismatched keypad the way some older LiftMaster boards will.
Styles & brands we work with





Signs Your Elite Keypad & Intercom Is Failing
- Codes work only when pressed hard or multiple times. The conductive pads under the rubber keypad membrane have worn flat. We see this constantly in Las Vegas because the heat dries out the membrane and it loses its snap.
- Intercom audio is loud on one end, dead on the other. Usually a corroded speaker terminal or a broken wire at the hinge point where the wire flexes every opening cycle.
- Gate opens for some codes but not others. The keypad’s non-volatile memory chip is failing, not the motor. A new keypad restores all codes when we reprogram it to your Elite control board.
- Visitor call button triggers a busy signal or nothing at all. The intercom handset inside the house has lost its pairing or its power supply is failing after years of Nevada heat.
- Rust trails from the keypad edges or condensation behind the faceplate. A cracked gasket is letting monsoon moisture in. When the board corrodes, the part is done, and a new unit installs in about an hour.
Replacement Cost & What’s Included
In Las Vegas, an Elite keypad replacement runs $185 to $310 installed with parts, labor, and programming to your existing code. A full intercom system swap, meaning the exterior station and interior handset, ranges from $320 to $420, including the wiring check and any short-run wire replacement at the hinge. The spread depends on whether your existing housing is still usable or we’re cutting in a new flush-mount, and whether the intercom cable needs to be rerun or just re-terminated. We quote the exact price before work starts, in writing, every time. No “parts might be extra” after the fact. The labor and the part are warrantied under our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the same part fails within a year, the second visit is free, no freight charge, no diagnostic fee. Cole Rafferty built Warden around that promise, because he could never get a straight answer on gate repair pricing as a homeowner, and he decided the LV market deserved better.

You can safely check three things before you call: the keypad’s display still lights up, the intercom’s power light is on at the indoor handset, and no visible water has pooled inside the keypad housing. Past that, this is low-voltage electrical work, but it’s still electrical work, and it’s easy to short a control board if you guess wrong on an old Elite unit. We’ve had customers turn a $200 keypad swap into a $700 board replacement by crossing a wire they couldn’t see behind the faceplate. If you’re comfortable, changing a rubber membrane with the power off is honest DIY territory. Wiring a new intercom into an Elite board is not. One wrong splice and you’re buying a whole control board, not just a speaker. Call us at (725) 529-9468 and we’ll tell you over the phone whether it’s worth your Saturday or worth our truck roll.
FAQs
We see Elite keypads last 5 to 8 years in Las Vegas before the membrane or memory chip fails, and intercom systems typically hold up 7 to 10 years before the speaker or pairing modules give out. The heat and monsoon humidity shorten both lifespans compared to coastal markets, which is why we stock these parts on the truck for same-visit swaps. Call (725) 529-9468 if yours is acting up, and we’ll give you an honest read on whether it’s worth repairing.
Keypad membranes and intercom speakers can sometimes be repaired, but once the control board inside the unit is corroded or a memory chip fails, replacement is the only honest fix. We always try the cheaper repair first and show you the failed part before we swap anything, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Call us at (725) 529-9468 and describe the symptom; we’ll tell you the likely cost range before we schedule.
Most Elite keypad replacements are done in 45 to 60 minutes, and a full intercom swap usually takes 90 minutes to two hours depending on the wiring condition. We quote the exact time and price in writing before we start, and we’ll schedule around your availability, not the other way around. Call (725) 529-9468 to get on the schedule for a free estimate.
Yes, we keep the most common Elite keypad membranes, full keypad units, intercom speakers, and two-wire and four-wire intercom kits on our service trucks in Las Vegas, so most repairs are one visit. If your Elite model takes a less common part, we order it and give you the exact arrival date before you commit. Call (725) 529-9468 and we’ll confirm whether your part is on the truck today.
