What affects the price
When you are looking at garage door costs, keep in mind that the final bill depends on a few moving parts. The material you choose—like steel, wood, or aluminum—plays a big role, as does the level of insulation required for your home.

About this service
Safety sensors are the small electronic eyes located near the floor on both sides of your garage door. They stop the door from closing if an object or person breaks the beam. If your door refuses to close and the lights on the opener are flashing, the sensors are likely misaligned or blocked. Cleaning the lenses or adjusting their position often solves the problem. If they still won't work, we can troubleshoot the wiring or replace the units to keep your home safe.
