The details

Done right
the first time.

Southern New Hampshire winters are hard on springs and seals, and we keep doors running from Nashua to the Lakes Region. With long, hard winters with heavy snow loads, springs that break in sub-zero mornings is one of the most common calls we get.

The two photo-eyes near the floor are a safety feature required on every modern opener. When the beam is broken, the door won't close. Dirt, sunlight, a bumped bracket or a damaged wire is usually the cause.

Quick check you can do now: make sure nothing is in the beam's path and wipe both lenses. If the LEDs still blink, call us.

FAQ

Your questions.

Straight answers about repairs, new doors, pricing and scheduling.

Still unsure? Ask a technician.(603) 499-4999
Why does my door go back up?

Most often the sensors are misaligned or blocked, or the opener's close force is set too low.

Can I bypass the sensors?

No. They stop the door from closing on people, pets and cars.

Does sunlight affect them?

Yes. Low sun can blind a sensor; we can swap sides or fit a shield.
