The additional features are supported by Apple only.

Use additional features when configuring accessories that combine different features into one physical object. For example, you can configure a ceiling fan as a Light accessory with the related parameters and insert the additional Fan feature, so as to control both functions from a single graphic element in the Apps.

The accessories door, window, garage door, scene, lock and gate are not compatible with Apple platform so they do not support additional features and cannot be used for this function.
