I automated the electric garage door lock with Home Assistant and Sonoff Pulse

Hi everyone,

I’d like to share a real-world Home Assistant automation I use to control an electric garage door lock using a Sonoff device in pulse mode.

What this project covers

  • Electric garage door lock installation
  • Electrical wiring using Sonoff in pulse mode
  • Sonoff configuration in Home Assistant
  • Dashboard and mobile control
  • Automations (time and events)
  • Integration with other Home Assistant devices
  • Electrical safety best practices
  • Real-world daily usage example

This setup is shared exactly as used in my own environment.

If anyone wants to adapt it for another type of lock or discuss improvements, feel free to ask.
