Is there any chance a new accessory type of "Garage Door" could be included?

DarylMc commented 1 year ago

Not what you asked but I'd just like to mention this gadget since it's already setup as a garage door opener. Works very well in HomeKit. https://shop.meross.com/products/smart-wifi-garage-door-opener?variant=39999959990428

Thanks for that. I have a couple of doors and a gate integrated into CBUS. This looks really good but I think I'll struggle to fit it inside the gate controller, will try one on a door though.

What are u using in CBUS to control the doors and gate, simple relays or something else.

They all have dry contacts available so I just use a CBUS relay. Also have an AUX input to monitor the state - open/close

Ahh - I like the monitor idea, I don’t have that, I’ll do some researchS

The Meross device comes with wiring, magnet and reed switch for status. I procrastinated for a while how to mount it but in the end spent 15 minutes with some hot glue and a huge magnet I had lying around.image image image

+1 for this. I’ve been running this plug-in for ages. My front gate is controlled by CBUS and is of type switch. I want carplay to bring up this device when I approach the house and maybe if it’s got a door type it will.
