A blinking garage door sensor in Gilbert almost always means the two photo-eyes aren't seeing each other. It's usually a quick alignment or cleaning.

Why does this keep happening in Gilbert? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Relentless 100°+ desert heat takes its toll — 100°+ heat fries openers, and sun bakes & warps panels — so a garage door sensor blinking is one of the more common calls our Gilbert crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door sensor blinking

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.

Misalignment
A bumped bracket throws the sensors out of line and they start blinking.
Dirt or sun glare on the lens
A dusty lens or direct sun can break the beam.
A damaged sensor wire
A pinched or chewed wire interrupts the signal.
How we fix it
