Hi everyone,
I’m planning to install a new sliding gate opener and would like your advice on which models are most suitable for integration with Home Assistant.
I’m looking for a system that supports real-time monitoring and control, not just status updates after an action is completed.
Key requirements:
- I need to send control commands (open/close/stop) — either via standard signals (voltage-based I/O) or i.e. via Modes or similar open protocols.
- I want to monitor the current state of the gate, including:
- Whether the gate is currently opening or closing
- Not just whether it’s fully opened or closed
Basically, I want to know what the gate is doing, not just what it has done.
If anyone has experience with such gate motors I’d really appreciate your recommendations!
Thanks in advance!
