To configure a Z-Wave garage door that can be controlled by Vera, you could look at the following options:
Option 1:
Using the Wayne Dalton: the conversion module/receiver http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-1296-wayne-dalton-wdrr-372r-garage-door-conversion-module.aspx, the keyless key chain controller http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-1145-wayne-dalton-3150r-wireless-keychain-remote-control.aspx and the gateway http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-1144-wayne-dalton-wdha-12r-wireless-gateway-module-for-z-wavekep-iii3150r.aspx.
Option 2:
Wire one of these in parallel around each of your garage door push-button switches: ACT ZRF113: http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-654-homepro-zrf113-z-wave-isolated-contact-fixture-module.aspx or ZRW113 http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-552-homepro-zrw113w-z-wave-relay-switch.aspx. Each is powered by 120v but has an isolated relay that can be used with Vera to simulate a button push.
Now add a Door Sensor http://www.smarthome-products.com/p-951-hrds1-wireless-doorwindow-sensor.aspx to each of your garage doors so that Controller can track the open/close status of the doors.
When you arrive home, just use your existing garage door opener to open the door. The door sensor will alert Controller and you can trigger events, based on that. Also, you'll be able to monitor the status of the door remotely and control the door with the ACT devices.
