Please search the community for garage door and you will find several threads on this topic. I don’t know anything about the device you mentioned but you will need a SmartApp to sync the devices.
There are a few solutions that I have used, one free:
Syncs a Simulated garage door device with 2 actual devices, either a tilt or contact sensor and a switch or relay. The simulated device will then control the actual garage door. In addition, the virtual device will sync when the garage door is opened manually, \n It also attempts to double check the door was actually closed in case the beam was crossed.
create a virtual device (see elsewhere for instructions) for device type use the simulated garage door.
You can also create a modified version for yourself I recommend decreasing the runin time to 1 sec, otherwise it takes 6 secs before the door starts closing or opening when you toggle the simulated device icon. (That is what I did)
install this smart app.
select your relay /switch, and actual garage door sensor in the app, Also s…
And a paid version:
Virtual Garage Door Manager and Controller
On overwhelming requests from users: This solution allows you to build your own custom/bespoke Garage Door Opener using a Relay and a Door Open/Close sensor or a Tilt sensor and optionally integrate other sensors/controls in to your Virtual Garage Door Controller. It can also work with Gates, Sliding doors / Patio doors to detect if it’s partially open or closed.
Key features of this solution:
Configure and automatically install up to 5 Virtual Garage Doors Controllers
(Required) Use a relay/momentary and door/window/contact/tilt sensor to create a virtual garage door controller
(Optional) Use dual contact sensors to detect if Gate / Sliding door is partially open/closed
(Optional) Separate Open/Close relays for controllers with Open/Close/Sto…
