Garage Door Garage Door Sensor Installation Edgewood, TX

Local matters for garage door sensor installation. In Edgewood and neighboring Wills Point, Canton, Grand Saline, and Emory, the failures we address most are sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, and rusted track hardware and seized rollers, all backed by our 10-year workmanship guarantee.

Set in Texas's humid subtropical region, Edgewood has hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. The practical result is summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, mildew and moisture on shaded, north-facing doors, and intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, which is exactly what our parts selection targets.

The repair board in Edgewood fills up with the same culprits: sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, and rusted track hardware and seized rollers. Each is a one-visit fix with parts already on the truck.

Photo-eye safety sensors are required by UL-325 on every garage door opener manufactured since 1993. They detect obstructions in the door's path and either reverse the door (during close) or refuse to start (when activated). When sensors are misaligned, dirty, sun-blinded, or failed, the door either refuses to close at all or — worse — closes without sensing an obstruction. Our sensor installation service replaces failed sensors, realigns drifted brackets, cleans the eye optics, and verifies auto-reverse on a real obstruction test.

Replacement eyes are brand-specific (LiftMaster has a different connector and signal pattern than Genie). We stock the major brands and most legacy models. Brackets occasionally need replacement when corrosion has degraded them or impact has bent them. Bracket alignment is critical — eyes that are slightly off-aim trigger intermittent close failures that drive homeowners crazy.

Every visit ends with an obstruction test: a 1.5-inch (3.8 cm) tall object placed under the door at three positions across the opening. The door must reverse when it touches the object. This is the UL-325 baseline — if the door doesn't pass, the install isn't complete. We document the test results on the work order.

Signs you need garage door sensor installation

• Door refuses to close from remote

  Misaligned or dirty photo-eyes prevent close. The opener's status light usually blinks 10 times to indicate the photo-eye fault.

• Door closes part-way then reverses

  Photo-eyes detecting a phantom obstruction (often sun glare or insects). Realignment or shielding usually fixes.

• Status light blinks 10 times

  Universal LiftMaster code for photo-eye fault. Genie and Chamberlain have similar fault patterns.

• Sensors visibly knocked out of alignment

  Bumped brackets, lawn-equipment impacts, or vehicle contact all knock sensors out of aim. Realignment is a quick fix.

• Older opener with no sensors

  Pre-1993 openers don't have photo-eyes. Retrofit is possible on most models — and brings the door to current safety code.

Common causes & what we fix

• Bracket misalignment

  Brackets shift slightly from temperature cycling, vibration, or contact. Even a few degrees off-aim breaks the sensor beam.

• Lens dirt or insects

  Dust, spider webs, and insect carcasses block the infrared beam. Cleaning the lens often restores function.

• Sun glare interference

  Direct sunlight hitting the receiver lens can saturate the sensor and trigger false obstruction. Shielding or repositioning fixes.

• Wire damage

  Mice chew sensor wires; landscapers occasionally cut them. Replacement and re-routing fixes.

• Sensor end-of-life

  Photo-eye electronics fail at 10–15 years. Replacement is inexpensive and quick.
