Hi, all I'm Chris. I'm new here and new to electronics.
I'm a carpenter by trade and have been asked to design a hidden door.
The hidden door mechanics took me a while, but I sorted it out. I've built many hidden doors, but never one that was electrically actuated.
After months of on and off research, I finally managed to figure out a wiring schematic that seems to work.
But I would sure appreciate some input to fine tune it.
I've searched and read many posts that seemed to be relevant to my project, but couldn't quite find what I'm looking for.
I'll start by adding a PDF of my schematic (see below I guess).
Here are a few links as to how the door works.

I'm not sure what else to add, parts list maybe?
Power Supplies:
VCDHS DC 12V 10 A https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019OIGY4O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
VCDHS DC 24V 8 A https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019OOTL7A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Relays:

Actuators:

https://www.firgelliauto.com/products/heavy-duty-track-actuator
So... do I need diodes on the relays? Do I need to fuse this? What am I missing?
As I said in my opening, I am a carpenter. Not a candidate for a degree in EE.
Thanks,
Chris
