  • Unless it’s drive is not working or something this is overkill just to set up remote open.

    Most all garage door openers have two screw terminals on the back. If you connect a wire to both it triggers the open/close. You can run two long wires from there to wherever - this is how the button in the garage typically works.

    You can also use any number of different setups to close that connection over a wireless trigger. I use a Shelly relay and home assistant which costs $20 or so. If you don’t have home assistant there are several other products that can do this.
