Frequently Asked Questions
How do garage door sensors work?▶
Photo-eye sensors use infrared beams to detect objects in the door's path. If the beam is broken, the door reverses for safety.
Why won't my door close?▶
Usually due to misaligned, dirty, or blocked sensors. Sometimes wiring is loose. We diagnose and fix the issue.
Can sensors be repaired or must they be replaced?▶
Often cleaning and realigning sensors fixes the problem. If they're damaged, we replace them.
How much does sensor repair cost?▶
Sensor cleaning and alignment typically costs $50-$100. Replacement sensors cost $150-$300. We provide free diagnostics.
What does the sensor LED light mean?▶
Green light = working properly. Red light = misaligned or blocked. No light = power issue. We can interpret and fix any issues.
Are sensors a safety requirement?▶
Yes! All garage doors made after 1993 require safety sensors. They're essential for preventing injuries.
