Fitted to my Centurion D5 gate controller, it does what it promises although the UI on the app could be improved.

The product itself works well enough, but the integration with Homekit via the Plugin on HOOBS / HA is not as polished. The frequent incomplete status polling really drains your battery and instead of assuring you, leaves you wondering if the doors are really closed or not. The service from HenracTech staff was top drawer, though.

Very easy to install, and works nice.
