Somfy RTS Remote Control in Egypt — Keytis 2 RTS for Gates and Roller Shutters
Somfy RTS Remote Control in Egypt — Keytis 2 RTS for Gates and Roller Shutters
The Somfy RTS remote (Keytis line) is the original transmitter for Somfy gate, garage and roller-shutter motors in Egypt, running on Somfy’s own RTS protocol at 433.42MHz with rolling code. Because RTS is a closed protocol, generic 433.92MHz remotes cannot pair with Somfy receivers — an original Keytis 2 RTS (2 buttons) or Keytis 4 RTS (4 channels) is the working replacement, in stock with nationwide delivery and pairing steps included.

Protocol
RTS 433.42MHz rolling code — identical range and security
Rule of thumb: count your Somfy motors. One motor → Keytis 2; two to four motors → one Keytis 4 replaces a pocketful of separate remotes.

Why your generic remote will not work with Somfy
Most “universal” remotes in the Egyptian market transmit on 433.92MHz with copyable fixed codes. Somfy deliberately runs RTS on 433.42MHz with its own rolling-code handshake — the frequencies do not meet and the code cannot be cloned. This is a security feature, not an inconvenience: nobody can duplicate your gate remote at a kiosk. The practical consequence: when a Somfy remote is lost or broken, the replacement must be original or RTS-certified — and pairing it takes two minutes with our programming guide.
Compatibility check before ordering — 30 seconds
Photograph your motor label (on the motor head or inside the shutter box) or your old remote’s back and send it on WhatsApp. RTS motors and receivers are identifiable at a glance, and we confirm the exact Keytis model before you pay — every order ships with the pairing steps for your specific motor. Delivery covers all Egyptian governorates; payment by bank transfer, InstaPay or cash on delivery.
Will a Keytis remote work with my non-Somfy motor?No — RTS pairs only with Somfy receivers. For other brands we stock their original and compatible remotes; tell us your motor brand and we match it.
My Somfy remote fell and broke — do I lose the motor settings?No, settings live in the motor. A new Keytis pairs to it in under two minutes, from another working remote or the motor’s PROG button.
Is there a cheaper compatible alternative to original Somfy?Only RTS-certified remotes work; uncertified generics fail to pair. We quote the original and any certified option with updated prices on WhatsApp +201098470908.
Can one Keytis 4 run my gate and three shutters?Yes — one motor per channel, paired individually. That is exactly its use case.
How do I know my motor is RTS before buying?Send the motor label photo — RTS marking or model number identifies it instantly, and we confirm before dispatch.
Do you deliver Somfy remotes outside Cairo?Yes, all governorates — Cairo/Giza usually same day, other governorates 2-3 days, cash on delivery available.
What is the price of a Keytis remote in Egypt?It depends on the model (2 vs 4 channels) and moves with import rates — message us on WhatsApp for today’s price and stock.
