How could this connect to a driveway gate (like in the promotional video) when there is no "button" or wiring for the driveway gate inside the garage?

You must install the gogogate unit next to the button that opens the gate or whatever opens the gate can not be out sides

You can hook it up without a button if you run wires from gogogate to the com or o\s\c ports on board of gate motor.

The GoGo Gate simply provides a contact closure (or open) via WiFi using smartphone, tablet, etc.. If you want to know the status (is gate open or closed) then you need to have the GoGo close enough to the gate to receive the transmission from the wireless sensor (included with the GoGo). The GoGo is not waterproof, so plan accordingly. I use mine to simply open and close my garage door through my smartphone. The GoGo is only about fifteen feet from my wireless router, so it works flawlessly.

You would need to run a wires in between the gogo gate and the gate controller. The gate controller is the the device that controls the operation of the gate. But remember you would need a WIFI connection where ever you put the gogo gate controller. In my application I had to put a wireless router close to where the gogo gate controller was.

The gate must be an electronic auto opening gate to begin with. GOGO GATE allows it, when connected, to open and close using your smartphone instead of the opener you would have with such a gate. You can't just connect it to any gate. If your gate is electronically opened in the first place, GOGO GATE works over your home wifi

I'm not really sure. The Garage Door Butler wires into the button. I do know there is a website for the Garage Door Butler, and they may be able to answer your questions. Good Luck!

Some cars have garage opener buttons built into them, e.g. mine has garage opener buttons on the bottom of the rear view mirror, others have them on the overhead console or on the driver side visor. This system is called Homelink. Once the garage opener remote control's signal is programmed into teh system, you do not need to use the garage opener remote control anymore, you just push a Homelink button in your car and the garage door opens. Many older garage openers (in my case Marantec Elite 2007) use frequency which is incompatible with the Homelink system in the car. This makes it impossible to program the signal into the Homelink. This external receiver IS compatible with the Homelink, so it can be connected to an incompatible garage opener and then the signal from this receiver's remote is programmed into the Homelink. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HomeLink_Wireless_Control_System http://www.homelink.com/about

My gate extends only about 4 inches beyond the opening. My controller is hidden by bushes and is within the opening, but my gate is about 5 feet wider than my driveway so the opener is not within the traffic area.

There is not much involved to connect it... 2 wires to the wall wart (power supply) and 2 wires that go to the garage door opener itself and connect to its contacts for the receiver. I already had an external receiver so it was just a simple replacement, but you might have to find those contacts on you opener. The only thing that took me much time at all was programming the remotes for my two doors (the remotes I got were 3 button, able to work multiple devices).

Usually it is getting attached to the middle of the gate. But it is always depends of the design of your gate, so you may have to to attach some sort of extension panel to it to make it work.

Wire (hard wired) goes from garage door opener to box also wire from remote goes into it

Interesting question: Theoretically it may be possible. Most single garage doors use this 'command box' to openand close a single garage door. One door being wired in 'series' it may be possible to wire the 'command box' attached to two garage doors (same kind of opener motor on both) by wiring one command box in 'parrallel' electricmode by 'splitting electric connects'. I would google people with two garage doors to discern if you haven't donethis already. If NOT possible for some reason....connect to one door and put 'wall button' for 2nd garage doorright inside the first door perhaps? Interesting question: Theoretically it may be possible.

I would guess no, since there is no way to control the doorbell remotely (the doorbell functions like an alarm sensor). If you have a 2Gig system with Alarm.com I would recommend the Chamberlain MYQ setup. It works perfectly and can retrofit to most current garage doors without wiring.

Since there are no wires to run, it should be pretty simple to drill into the mortar joint and insert a plug. One screw will hold it, but two are better. Ask for advise at any lumber yard. First be sure there is not an available spot on the wood garagedoor frame. Good luck, Jack

We just connected this where our other doorbell was located. Wires pushed into the existing opening. Hope this helps.

I think the lock is coordinated with the signal to open the gate, never tried it with other openers than the one that is sold with the gate hardware though.

There are three wires from the back of the receiver to the motor drive. #1 is green and may be a ground. There are an additional 3 wires running from the tabs on the front of the unit that go to the wall switch. The wall unit in our garage is also programmable and I really don't know what that's all about. I just swapped the new receiver for the old, and lucked out in that they were identical.

Being mounted outside it should be hard wired through sealtite to a disconnect or switch. Also would require a GFCI at the breaker panel.

One thing to keep in mind is that this unit needs a power source. I had to also buy the "LINEAR 109201 LINEAR POWER SUPPLY F/302101". This works for all automatic garage door openers and gates. You simply follow the directions. This unit mounts to the 3 screw power source, then you hook up the power and ground from the opener itself. Done. I hooked this up to my neighbors very old 1960's door opener a year ago and it still works perfectly.

You have a power lift gate if you can push a button and the door opens. Otherwise, it is a non-power liftgate.

I had a similar problem. Turns out it was installed correctly. In my situation, all I had to do was first turn the unlock lever AND lift the gate at the same time to open. Not very intuitive at first and not explained well in the instructions, but soon became second nature.
