More about this in Pleak

A garage door won't close when it heads down, stops partway, and either reverses back up or just sits there. That's the opener refusing to finish the cycle because something is telling it to stop — most often a sensor, but sometimes the travel-limit setting or a door that's binding on its way down. The town-level guide to emergency garage door repair Pleak covers every common fault in one place.

Call (346) 220-4724 for a diagnosis before forcing the door shut by hand.

The sensors are the first thing checked on a garage door that won't close

Two small eyes sit low on either side of the track, aimed at each other, and the opener won't let the door finish closing if anything breaks that beam — dust, glare, a stray object, or a sensor that's been knocked out of alignment. That single cause accounts for a large share of won't-close calls before anyone looks at the door itself.

Why garage door won't-close calls in Pleak split by house age

With Pleak's median house built in 1979, a meaningful share of the village's doors are old enough that the opener's close-force settings have never been recalibrated since a bracket shifted or a spring lost a little tension — a mismatch that shows up as the door refusing to finish closing. Newer doors in town are far more likely to be a straightforward sensor problem instead.
