Experience garage door automation (High Line 10 model)

Hardware
1

With our new house we have a High Line 10 garagedoor. THere are 2 receivers based on 868mhz band to remote control the garagedoor.

Is there anyone who has experience in controlling the garagedoor with home assistant? Currently my HA setup does not have a 868mhz transeiver / receiver and i’m not sure if this will work with the High Line 10 model garagedoor. Looking for some tips / tricks to start controlling the garagedoor from HA.

I’ve got something similar, an 868mhz controlled set of doors. Mine uses the NRG TVNRG868A01 control box. I recently came across a product from Meross ( Meross Smart Garage Door Opener Kit Remote Control Existing Garage Opener - look for it on Amazon). It’s dead easy to install.

It uses WiFI to control from their own app, however there is also an integration https://github.com/albertogeniola/meross-homeassistant
which I’ve been using now for a couple of weeks with no problems. It doesn’t connect directly to the devices, but via the Meross API, which isn’t ultimately what I want, but it’s an interim step that works.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the headsup on the Meross. I will check if this is compatible, the price is mutch better as the Maveo (came just accross this device).

I guess your garagedoor opener also has an output to which you can attach a switch. I’ve put my raspberry pi (or esp-device) in parallel over it to mimic a press and release of that switch. I’ve added 2 reed contacts in the fully opened and closed positions so I can detect if the garage is open or closed.
Total cost price (excluding RPi/ESP):< 10 euro.

My first version worked with a sonoff Basic BTW

Cool thanks for the info, i have to check for the output as i havent came across this one yet. Only took a picture for the brand to start investigating, but have to check for the output possibilities.
