There are off the shelf OpenWRT routers. I use: * Turris Omnia as edge routers: https://www.turris.com/en/omnia/overview/ * GL iNet Convexa-B as access points
Both work well, and are native OpenWRT solutions. The Omnia is a bit expensive, but you could just stick with GL iNet devices if cost is a problem.
