operating gate without sensor is nonsense...

It certainly would be better with sensors, but it's useful to use HomeKit automation with GPS position, or to open it with the vocal control of the car, or to open from any position of the house when you have the iPhone with you or the Watch. The timing variables are the "compensation" for the absence of the sensors and of course it's something "hacky", but it's better than nothing :)

By the way, if you have any suggestion of sensor to attach to this setup, I would be happy to explore the options!
