Title: Automating a door!
Post by: jvbo on December 08, 2008, 04:53:38 PM

Hi, do you guys have any ideas on how to automate my door?

I don't want to change the way it looks, because all the house's doors are the same. I just want some kind of motor so that it can open/close automatically.
Its a sliding door, any ideas??

Thank you!
Any help is helpfull!

X10 does not make motors for doors, but motorized doors are commercially available, but at what cost I don't know.   X10 could be used to control the motor after it is installed.
