Sensor trouble is behind most Jacinto City garage door won't-close calls

Two small sensors mounted low on either side of the track point directly at each other, and anything breaking that beam — a stray object, sun glare, or built-up grime on the lens — keeps the opener from letting the door finish closing, or sends it back up mid-travel. This single cause explains the bulk of won't-close service calls in a city this size before anyone even looks at the door itself.

A won't-close complaint that keeps recurring on the same door, with sensors testing clean every time, often traces back to that slow frame movement rather than to anything electrical.

What the Hunting Bayou flooding tells us about a Jacinto City garage door

A safety sensor in a garage that saw even a few inches of that water can develop a clouded lens or a bad connection that doesn't show up as a won't-close fault until months or years later.
