2 Pack Honeywell 5834-4 Four Button Wireless Key Remotes - Spare Pair

In this review the 2 Pack Honeywell 5834-4 Four Button Wireless Key Remotes are assessed for homeowners who want a reliable, compact way to arm and disarm Honeywell alarm panels. The bottom line: these keyfobs deliver straightforward remote control for Vista, Lynx, and Lyric systems, and the biggest reason to buy is the convenience of two identical, OEM-compatible remotes with batteries included so one can be kept at home and the other carried by a partner or guest. Our review finds them functional, easy to program once taken out of High Security Mode, and good value for replacing lost or extra remotes.

Key Features

• Panel compatibility: Works with Honeywell Vista, Lynx, and Lyric panels so users with those systems get native remote functions without adapters.
• Four-button layout: Provides Arm Away, Arm Stay, Disarm, and a fully customizable fourth button for a panic or AUX function tailored to your setup.
• Two-pack convenience: Includes two keyfobs so homeowners can give one to a spouse or frequent guest and avoid swapping a single remote.
• Batteries included: Ships ready to use with batteries installed, so the remotes work out of the box after exiting High Security Mode and programming to the panel.
• High Security Mode option: Arrives in High Security Mode and can be switched by holding Disarm, Arm Stay, and AUX until the LED blinks green, which preserves security in transit.

Who It's For

This product is well suited to homeowners or tenants who already run a Honeywell Vista, Lynx, or Lyric alarm panel and need an OEM-style remote for daily arming and disarming. It is ideal for couples or households that prefer a spare remote for a guest, pet sitter, or second driver.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of non-Honeywell panels or users seeking a remote with integrated home automation controls beyond a simple AUX button; this unit is focused on basic security remote functions rather than multi-device smart home control.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Works as advertised with compatible Honeywell panels, giving reliable remote control for arming and disarming.
• Good value: two remotes and batteries included provide an economical OEM-style replacement pair.
• Simple process to exit High Security Mode makes programming to a panel straightforward once the procedure is followed.

Cons

• Arrives in High Security Mode which requires a small, specific button sequence to disable before programming, an extra step for some users.
