When a garage door opener won't close, the opener itself is almost always reacting to something rather than being broken outright — a blocked sensor beam, a force setting reading resistance, or a logic board that's lost its travel-limit memory. The door reverses or just stops because the unit thinks it's protecting against an obstruction. For the rest of the story on garage door service Cypress, the town page has it.
