More about this in Fulshear

Garage door sensor repair covers the two small units mounted a few inches off the floor on each side of the door, aimed at each other to detect anything in the door's path. When one is knocked out of alignment, has a dirty lens, or has a wiring fault, the opener refuses to close the door or reverses it mid-travel. This page is one part of a larger guide to Fulshear garage door repair.

Call (346) 220-4724 for sensor repair before assuming it's a bigger opener problem.

What actually breaks a garage door sensor

A bump from a stored bike or a broom handle can knock a sensor's aim off by just enough to break the beam. Dust, cobwebs, or condensation on the lens can do the same thing without anything physically moving the bracket. Chewed or corroded wiring, less common, causes an intermittent fault that's harder to spot.
