Hi!

I'd also be interested in such a circuit. I could imagine a ds2438 
(battery voltage sensor) or ds2450 (quad ad) in combination with some 
trimpot that gets operated by some of the mechanics (I think that this is 
the harder part, not the soldering :)

My door uses an electrical opener (24V DC, 10mA), which I operate using a 
relay and a ds2406. The other port of the ds2406 is connected to a micro 
switch, that gets touched when the door is fully closed. I thought about 
adding another ds2406 to "see" if the door is fully opened, so I can 
detect moving states (i.e. not closed and not open = moving).

br,
Markus
