What causes sensor issues in garage doors?

Garage door safety sensors (photo-eyes) are required by law on all automatic garage door openers since 1993. Understanding what causes sensor problems can help you prevent them. **Environmental Factors:** - **Dust and Dirt**: Accumulated debris on sensor lenses blocks the infrared beam - **Spider Webs**: Common culprits, especially in fall and spring - **Direct Sunlight**: Can interfere with the infrared signal - **Moisture**: Rain, condensation, or humidity can affect sensor performance **Physical Factors:** - **Accidental Bumps**: Hitting sensors with vehicles or equipment - **Vibration**: Repeated door operation can gradually shift sensor position - **Loose Mounting Brackets**: Allows sensors to move out of alignment **Prevention Tips:** - Clean sensors monthly with a soft cloth - Check alignment quarterly - Keep area around sensors clear - Schedule annual maintenance inspections If you're experiencing persistent sensor issues, call (541) 368-2809 for expert garage door repair.
