More about this in Crosby
A garage door remote won't close the door when the button opens it fine but closing does nothing, or the door starts down and reverses before it seats. That's a signal, sensor or opener-logic problem, not a dead remote battery in most cases, since a truly dead remote usually won't open the door either.

Call (346) 220-4724 for a diagnosis before swapping batteries or spraying anything into the opener.
Why a garage door remote won't close the door even though it opens
Opening and closing run through different logic inside the opener. A remote that opens the door without trouble but won't send it back down is almost always getting blocked at the sensor stage — the opener refuses to close on a beam it thinks is obstructed — rather than failing to receive the remote's signal at all. That's why chasing the remote itself first usually wastes a trip.
A garage door remote won't close square on hardware from the 1980s
Crosby's median home was built in 1985, which puts a large share of the town's opener units and sensor wiring close to or past forty years old. Older logic boards and worn sensor eyes drift out of alignment in ways a newer system wouldn't, and that's a common reason a remote opens the door fine but won't send the close command through on a house of that era.

Garage door remote won't close reliably after flood exposure in Crosby
Homes near the Arkema chemical plant took on Harvey floodwater alongside the plant itself in 2017, and more than 200 residents in that area evacuated for a week after the fire that followed. Sensor wiring, connectors and opener circuit boards that sat in that water don't always fail right away — corrosion inside a connector can show up years later as a remote that opens the door but won't reliably close it.
Garage door remote won't close the same way twice in Newport
Newport, Crosby's master-planned community along the San Jacinto River, was built out over decades starting in the 1970s by Friendswood Development Company, so opener brands, remote frequencies and sensor setups vary block to block rather than matching one builder standard. A garage door remote won't close complaint in Newport often comes down to mismatched or aging components that were never installed as a matched set.
