I have several projects related to the garage door and all of them need to know whether the door is opened or closed.
Status sensing system parts
Sensor wall mounting base
Sensor arm
Door magnet mounting base
Magnet extension rod
Magnet arm
Various M3 screws, washers and nuts to connect the component parts
Wood screws to mount the sensor base to the wall
14 mm x 5 mm disc rare earth magnet, glued in place using superglue
A3144 Hall Effect sensor glued in place using UV resin glue
Reused USB cable (ends cut off)
3M super strong double-sided tape (black with red backing)
Printed using QIDI Plus4 printers.
Blue parts using PLA at 0.20 mm "Standard" resolution
White parts using TPU at 0.24 mm "Draft" resolution
The Hall Effect sensor outputs an open-collector (ground-only) signal when the magnet is detected. A 10K pull-up resistor is used to make this an effective digital signal for use with microcontrollers.
Example Upcoming Projects:
✅ Display a light indoors when the door is open via 433.92 MHz transmission
Outside mounted RFID opener / closer
Automatically close the door if left open past a certain time of night using an RTC
Remotely close the door using DTMF commands via ham radio
