DeveloSpec Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 does anyone know how to get the garage door opener connected to a switch? It will not allow an electrical connection to any type of switch. I do not see even see an garage door opener button switch in the library.. Only the actual garage door opener.

Kenoeightspot Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Place a ceiling outlet next to the door opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeveloSpec Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 yah I figured that was the only solution. but what about a garage door button switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenoeightspot Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 There is one in the lib. but it looks like the other standard switches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 You can use a doorbell and change the label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LevisL Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 You could also draw a cad line/arc/spline (whichever you prefer) manually and put in on the electrical connections layer. Then you could connect the opener directly to the switch, because in reality, it's not the ceiling outlet that's wired to the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenoeightspot Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Connect the switch to the outlet first then move the connection wire to the opener box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeveloSpec Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 thanks for the info guys. i have seen it both ways.. where the door opener was plugged into the ceiling outlet and alsow here the opener was hard wired. but this will work but I wish they had some cool looking switches dedicated to the opener.. they have everything this else one can imagine!!
