What Is Safety Sensor Alignment & Repair?
Safety sensors (photo-eyes) are the pair of units that send an invisible beam across the door opening. If the beam is broken, the door won't close or reverses. Required by CPSC/UL325. Alignment, wiring, and replacement keep them working.
About Safety Sensor Alignment & Repair in Orange County
Safety sensor alignment and repair from Urgent Garage Doors keeps garage doors compliant with federal safety law and safe for families and pets across Irvine and Orange County. Photo-eye sensors are required on all automatic garage doors manufactured after 1993 (CPSC and UL325 standards) - they detect obstructions in the door path and prevent the door from closing on people, pets, vehicles, or property. Misalignment is the single most common cause of doors that won't close or that reverse unexpectedly. We realign sensors using laser-precision tools, repair or replace damaged wiring (common after gardening crews cut sensor wires with edgers), and replace failed sensor units with manufacturer-matched parts. We also clean lenses (dust, cobwebs, and OC pollen are frequent culprits) and verify the indicator lights show proper alignment. California license #1055150. Upfront pricing. Same-day service when available. All 34 OC cities.
