More about this in Pinehurst

A garage door opener won't close when the door starts down, stops partway, or reverses back up before it ever seats on the floor. That's the opener reacting to something it's reading as a fault — a blocked sensor, a wiring fault, or a logic board that's lost track of where the door actually is — not the motor quitting outright.

Why a garage door opener won't close even with the remote working fine

A remote that still lights up and an opener motor that still hums don't mean the system is healthy — they just mean power's getting to the unit. The close cycle depends on the sensors reporting a clear path and the board reading that signal correctly the whole way down. Break that chain anywhere and the opener does exactly what it's built to do: stop or reverse rather than finish closing.

Wiring that ran through standing water once doesn't always fail right away — corrosion inside a wire nut or a sensor connector can sit for years before it starts causing intermittent faults, and an opener that won't close only some of the time, or only in certain weather, often traces back to a connection like that rather than to the sensors themselves.

Before anything gets replaced, the sensors get checked for alignment and a clean lens, since that single cause accounts for a large share of these calls on its own. If both sensors read clear and the door still won't finish closing, the next stop is the wiring path and then the board — a garage door opener won't close problem almost always sorts out faster by working from the simplest possible cause toward the more involved one rather than guessing.

Local facts behind a garage door opener that won't close in Pinehurst

Almost every road in Pinehurst flooded during Hurricane Harvey, and the CDP's own wastewater control room took on 3 feet of water — a level of neighborhood-wide water exposure that left plenty of garage wiring and hardware sitting wet for days, which is exactly the kind of history that shows up later as an opener that won't finish its cycle.
The Harvey-recovery project that followed included building a new elevated electrical control room specifically because the old one flooded, and that same lesson applies to garage opener wiring that was never moved up off the original mounting height after the storm.
With a median home built in 1988, a lot of Pinehurst's garage opener wiring and hardware is original equipment old enough to have gone through Harvey and simply aged since, which raises the odds that a won't-close fault traces back to a worn connection rather than a brand-new part.
Owner-occupied units make up 82.3% of Pinehurst's housing, well above the state average, which means most of these openers have had one household running the same unit for years rather than getting swapped out between tenants — so a fault that's been building slowly is more likely to still be there when someone finally calls.

A door that stops short or reverses on its own isn't a door to keep cycling — that just repeats whatever fault triggered it.
