Expert garage door sensor repair Hendersonville TN

Garage door sensors, called photo-eyes, sit near the floor on each side of the door. They send a beam across the opening. If the beam is blocked or the eyes are out of line, the door will not close, or it will reverse. A blinking opener light often means the sensors need alignment, cleaning, or replacement.

What to Expect When You Book

When you call, tell us what the door is doing, or not doing, in one sentence. We ask about the opener light, any loud bang, and whether the door is stuck open or closed, because that helps us bring the right parts.

On site, we check the door, springs, cables, rollers, tracks, and opener together, explain what we found in plain language, and give you an upfront price before work starts. Most repairs on this site are priced from $149, with an average job around $249 and a full service around $399, depending on parts and complexity. You decide before any work begins.

After the repair, we run the door through a full open and close, test the safety reversal and sensors, and show you what changed. If something still does not feel right, call the same number and tell us.

What We Check First

We check sensor alignment, lens cleanliness, wiring, and opener error lights. Sunlight hitting a sensor directly, a bumped bracket, or a chewed wire can all cause the same symptom: a door that will not close.

Repair or Replace?

Alignment and cleaning fix many sensor faults. If the sensor is cracked, the wire is damaged, or the opener board no longer reads it, sensor replacement, or in rare cases opener replacement, is the honest fix.

Low winter sun in Hendersonville can shine straight into a west-facing sensor and mimic a blockage. If the door only refuses to close at certain times of day, tell us that on the phone.
