Animated garage door opener icon for Home Assistant

Ceiling opener: while opening the trolley travels along the rail toward the motor, while closing it travels away, the chain runs and the courtesy light shines down.

3 states: idle, opening and closing. Part of the security icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the garage door opener icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the garage door opener is doing.

  • IdleResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Opening
  • Closing

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows opening, off shows idle. Entity states named like a state below (for example closing) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.

How to use it in Home Assistant

  1. Install the Animara card: one link install, HACS as a custom repository, or copy animara-card.js to /config/www.
  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
  3. Pick your entity. Choose Garage door opener in the Icon list if it is not detected automatically.
  4. Paste your Full Pack license key into the License key field once per dashboard.

Prefer YAML? This is all it takes:

type: custom:animara-card
entity: switch.garage_door_opener
icon: garage_door_opener

Mapping words yourself looks like this:

states:
  "on": closing
