Hi, not exactly a smart home question but wondered if someone could help. Our garage door operates by remote control or there are buttons on the unit. I would like to add a switch at the entrance and exit doors as that would be much more convenient. Is is as simple as adding retractive light switch buttons such as;

Amazon product ASIN B003EGIQI0
And connect it as per picture 12 on page 24 of the instructions


I have easy access to feed the cables so should be straightforward if this is the case.

Thanks very much.
 
Yep, I do the same on mine. Any push switch will do along with some normal bell wire. Mine is automated with a zwave unit but you any push switch is fine, even just a normal doorbell.
