Remote motion control trigger for Lutron Maestro switch?

Apologies if this is the wrong sub. I recently installed a Lutron Maestro motion controlled switch near the entrance to my 2-car garage. It works perfectly when we enter the garage from the house or when driving into the garage on the right side (when facing the house from the street). When I drive the other car in, however, the car on the right blocks the sensor, so it doesn't detect any movement. As a result, there's nothing to trigger the switch to turn the lights on. Is there a motion controlled sensor I could put on the left side of the garage that would communicate with the Lutron Maestro on the right side? I'm thinking something like a Caseta, but I'm not sure it's compatible with the Maestro. (Or perhaps I just need to replace the Maestro with a Caseta setup?) One other complication is there is no similar light switch on the left side of the garage. I'd just need to mount the motion sensor somewhere. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. submitted by /u/dla26 [link] [comments]
