Title: Built-in Garage Door Opener Remote
Post by: DavidMeermans on March 05, 2010, 02:53:16 am

I built a garage door opener remote into my RE.  Perhaps you will find it useful, too.  Total cost would have been about $10 plus the time, but it was a bit more as the first remote met a bad end in testing.

I like that!

I just need to figure one out that will drop a ramp, turn a knob, and open the door since i have to get my Enfield in and out of the people door in my garage >:(

Great writeup.  I am going to make one.  I have to be quick, the Radio Shack just went out of bussines here in town.  Thanks

I considered the YouTube option, too, but it did not work as well for me.  Mine would open the door, but my supper would then appear next to the dog's dish.  I could not get that kink out of the program.
