Has this not happened yet, hence the need to use this custom device type?

You got it. But it will be coming.

@triggertact

Any idea if other garage door opener brands are adding this functionality?

Chamberlain is the only one I know of right now.

You could also use a dry contact relay.

LFM-20 Evolve for garage door

It seems there are a few posting regarding controlling garage door using the evolve relay. But is there a simple documentation? There is also a video by smartthings showing the garage being controlled, but for a not so techy person , how does one accomplish that? Isn’t therea simple plug and play device? There are many options in the market like gogogate or mio, for a non techy much easier to go that route but than would that integrate with smartthings?
