What Are Garage Door Safety Sensors?

Garage door sensors (also called “photo eyes”) detect obstacles under the door. They’re mounted near the floor on each side of the opening and send an invisible beam across the doorway. If anything blocks or interrupts the beam, the door won’t close — protecting kids, pets, and vehicles.

Common signs your sensors are misaligned or malfunctioning:
  • The door won’t close or keeps reversing halfway
     

  • The opener light blinks continuously when you try to close the door
     

  • You must hold the wall button down to force the door closed
     

  • One or both sensor lights are off, blinking, or dim
     

  • The sensors look dirty, crooked, or loose

If you notice any of these issues, don’t ignore them call us to realign or replace your sensors quickly and safely.

  5. Wiring Repair (if needed) – Fix loose, frayed, or disconnected wires

Why You Shouldn’t DIY Sensor Alignment

While sensors seem simple, improper adjustments can leave your door unsafe or unreliable. DIY attempts may lead to:

Doors that still won’t close properly

Damaged sensor brackets or wiring

Intermittent operation (works sometimes, fails other times)

Voided opener warranties if wiring is tampered with

Our technicians use specialized tools to measure and align sensors precisely, ensuring they’re level, properly spaced, and free from interference.

When to Align vs. Replace Sensors

We replace all major residential and commercial garage door track types:

  • Align if: sensors are intact, but lights are off or beam is blocked/misaligned.
     

  • Replace if: sensor housings are cracked, wiring is damaged, or lenses are cloudy from age.

    We carry replacement sensors for most major brands and can install them on-site if needed.

Pricing & Warranty Overview

We offer upfront, flat-rate pricing with no hidden charges. Cost depends on:

  • Alignment vs. full sensor replacement
     

  • Brand compatibility and wiring condition
     

All services include: (Confirm with client)
