A possible double relay is the Fibaro FGS-222, this is a potential-free (dry-contact) relay, but any potential free double relay can be used.  
connect IN to V  
connect Q1 to M1-  
connect Q2 to M1+

Connect Power to L and N

Be sure in your flows, that both relays are never switched on at the same time.

`"open the switches"`, what does that mean, I’m not so good in shorthand writing.  
Did you include the switch to Homey?  
Can you control both the switches via Homey?  
If all Yes, then try to use the white wire instead of the blue wire.

Now i have worked out how it should be wired to work  
But i dont understand how its going to work with the double switch zwave divice  
If i connect  
BLACK-GREEN  
RED-WHITE  
the lift moves down  
And if i connect  
BLACK-WHITE  
RED-GREEN  
The lift goes up

That is a problem, this cannot be switched only by the double switch.  
I guess, there is a voltage between the GREEN and WHITE wire, green is + and white is - ?  
How high is this (DC) voltage?  
This voltage must be switched to the RED and BLACK wires, in UP position straight through, and in DOWN position, crossed.  
Therefore are 2 changeover contacts needed.

Green is + and white is -  
It is 29.5 volts

Adding a 24V - 30V DC relay could do this: (the voltage will drop when the motor starts running)

An alternative could be, if the current is less then 2A, a device from Qubino ZMNHOD1.
