Thanks,

Here is the code from the project I referenced:

#include <Servo.h>

Servo myservo1;

Servo myservo2;

void setup()

{

pinMode(10, OUTPUT); //motor

pinMode(11, OUTPUT); //solenoid

pinMode(12, INPUT); //Switch 0

pinMode(8,INPUT);//Switch 1

digitalWrite(12, HIGH); // turn on pullup resistor

digitalWrite(8,HIGH); //turn on pullup resistor

myservo1.attach(10); //motor

myservo2.attach(11); //solenoid

Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop()

{

int button_0=digitalRead(12);

int button_1=digitalRead(8);

while ((button_0==0) && (analogRead(A0)!=0)) //while button 0 is pressed and A0 is not equal to 0

{

myservo1.write(0); //close door

}

while ((button_1==0) && (analogRead(A1)!=0)) //while button 1 is pressed and A1 is not equal to 0

{

myservo2.write(180); //activate solenoid

myservo1.write(112); //open door

}

myservo1.write(92); //turn off motor

myservo2.write(92); //turn off solenoid

}
