Hi, I just need a basic amount so I can do my budget. The building was a garage but was converted into a studio with a door and windows and I would like to make it a garage again. It can be a double door or two single doors with automation (I have a device that must be added so it can work with my home assistant). So the door and windows need to be removed and the garage door(s) must be installed. There is power available for automation.
