Garage door sensors — Baltimore, MD

The most common problem with garage door sensors in Baltimore is misalignment. Dust, debris, or even minor bumps can knock them out of position. When they aren't perfectly aligned, the garage door opener won't receive the signal to close. This often results in the door stopping mid-way or reversing. Getting them recalibrated is usually a straightforward fix.
