Garage Door Detector Arduino

Project tutorial by chip mcclelland.

Garage door detector arduino. On the lcd screen you can see the last movements of your doors. Please note that this item not fit to iron door it will decline magnetic of the sensor. Garage door opener via mobile phone and rfid. Mc 38 wired door window sensor magnetic switch home alarm system detector.

The garage door is closed as high on the arduino the closed door sensor is connected to the no pin and the fully open sensor is connected to the nc pin on the switches. The arduino would now enter a door closed indicator state and leave the led on for 10 seconds before entering the door closed sleep state. No external power supply connect to wired or wireless alarm control panel gnd and n c ports directly. Our own network enabled garage door opener controlled with an arduino.

When the top sensor triggered the door would enter a third door up state and pulse the light slowly. Alarms are sent by sms. It can be connected to esp8266 to control the garage door. This project monitors two garage doors.

When the roller door was lowered the arduino would enter the door in transition state again and stay that way until the door closed and the bottom sensor was triggered. A door that is not completely opened or stays open for to long triggers an alarm. Here s the arduino sketch i came up with to accomplish this. This sets the garage door opening mechanism into motion letting you through with the a new felt sense of control over your home.

I mounted the 2 switches at each end of the garage door rail. When a door opens or closes the movements are logged.
