    There is more to it with garage doors, what about the current state of the door, do you only want to open it a little bit for more fresh air and close it afterwards, bonus, is a car in there

    One relay doesn't fix this, it is simple but not that simple

      We added a tilt sensor to our door that shows the state of the door for the most part. The threshold we have it at doesn't detect if it's partly open, but that's okay for us because we never leave it cracked
