A very clearly presented video that gave me the exact reason why the door wasn't closing. An easy fix and I didn't have to rely on a service call with a high fee. Thank you!!

Just call on the name Jesus and he will direct you 🙏

I was getting frustrated after hrs fiddling with the darn thing and about to call a repairman who would've told me who knows. I was fooled because the sensor lights were on. But the light would blink right before it closed and go back up. So after watching your video I kept my eye on the sensors as the door was closing. Sure enough the side rail shaking on the left side caused the sensor rays to disconnect and caused the door to go back up. But you pointed me the right way anyway. I was at my wits end. What a blessing your video was. Thanks.

Sam, thank you so much. I just cleaned the lenses on the sensors and the garage door closes and works as it normally does. As a person who is not "handy" I find your videos very informative and easy to follow.

I just want to say thank you for such a clear and concise explanation. All other videos went off on a tangent. You were straight to the point!

Readjusting coordination, cleaning the lenses, and checking the wirings of the sensors solved my issue(s) thanks to what I learned in this video. Thank you very much! 🙌🏼

Thank you SO much for making this video ! As a recently widowed elderly woman, I was able to fix my garage door closing problem without having to call an expensive repair person.

Thank you for a very complete look at potential problems.

Excellent. Well presented. Lens was a little dirty but one of them needed wing-nut tightening and trial and error to re-aim the beam.

Thank you so much, your solution worked, the sensor was loose. You saved me $150 that I would've had a pay for a service call. Much appreciate you posting this video!

Thank you! Tried your suggestion with aligning the sensors and it worked! Appreciate it. It’s not often where one of these fix it videos actually is helpful.

The trim at the top of my door partially detached from the frame and was catching the door about 80% down then it would go back up. I nailed the trim back into place and that fixed the problem. Thanks for the tips in the video too.

Thank you so much for this video Sam. I was fooling around with no idea why the door all of a sudden stopped going fully down. I check the sensor to wipe them and sure enough just like you said, there was a dried leaf 🍁 stuck on the left sensor totally covering it up. I removed the leaf and wiped down the sensor and the door is functioning once again. I’m super grateful for you instructions.

Thank you so much for your most comprehensive explanation. Tightening the sensors and cleaning the lenses did the trick. God bless!

In just five minutes you helped me correct my garage door problem. Thank you very much.

Best how to video I’ve seen yet! Thank you.

Excellent presentation, concise and to the point. My lenses were dirty due to recent garage floor scrapping, clean them, readjusted and voila - it work. Thanks

Thanks! You literally just helped me avoid a service charge fee. Keep it up!

Thanks so much! I watched the first 1:30 and realized my problem. So satisfying to fix something yourself without having to call a repair service for $150. Much gratitude.

Exactly what u said the sensor was hanging so wouldn’t close... all fixed and working.. thanks for the info!!

I was about to file a home warranty claim, when I watched your vid and then went out and cleaned my sensor lenses. That fixed it! You saved me $75 and time. Thank you!

I called the garage door repair guy to come out. He said $85 just to come out. I looked at your channel. I was done in 30 seconds. Just cleaned the lenses. It had very little dust but it worked. thank you .

Thank you Sam!! I was able to fix my door all by myself! God bless you!

Thank you. Cleaning the lens worked. Much appreciated

My garage wouldn't open or close without having tondo it manually. As soon as i wiped my finger across the lense (as this video suggests could be a reason) and pressed the button, it closed and opened... I thought it was probaby the chain but it was that the lense had dirt on it... This man knows his stuff!!! Thank you for this video!

Great tutorial! I learned a lot from this video and easily fixed my garage door problem and saved hundreds of dollars. Thanks,

You saved my life tonight!!! THANK YOU SO HELPFUL IT WAS THE FRIGGIN SENSOR!!

Thank you, sir, for posting this video. It was super helpful to me today. My door was not closing. It would start then stop. Turns out that it was the sensor! Someone bumped it when they picked up some things today. You have been a great help. Thank you again.

Thank you so much for your video!!! I couldn’t closed my garage door today and it worked after I cleaned the sensors!!! So glad I went to KZread for solution.

Thanks! Today our door did just what you showed in the video. As instructed, checked wiring, cleaned the glass (did not know these existed) and made sure they aligned with each other. Presto, door works. Assume the lenses were dirty. Thanks

Thanks to you I fixed my garage door easily! Loose wire from sweeping around the sensor! Thanks!

This video was extremely helpful. My garage door shit the bed, or so I thought, then after this extremely helpful video I was able to fix it quickly. One of the best videos I found on KZread thanks again.

Thank you for your Awesome videos. My BFF had a meltdown about her garage door when it didn’t want to close. Thank you for telling me some ways to help her out.

You saved my day. I was on my way to the airport when all of the sudden the garage door did not want to close. This could not happened on another day but the day going to airport. I checked the sensors and they were very dirty. I cleaned them up and problem solved ......... thank you !!!!!!

Thank you! I was able to fix my door after a week of problems, you made it easy!!!

To secure the premises.

Thank you for giving some good information on Garage Door Repair.

Exactly what was wrong and is now fixed. THANK YOU!

Great Illustrations! Simple to follow. Was able to get garage door working on the third illustration. Wires got separated by a snow shovel resting on the wire nut.

Very clear and concise video. Now I'll go and troubleshoot my garage door.

You made my day. Thanks for saving me a lot of headache and money

Excellent instructions! Cleaning the sensors worked out perfectly!

Thank you for taking the time to share this valuable information. Much appreciated!

You’re a life saver! Just cleaned my sensors and it closed right up!

This was the best diy video for my garage issue. it was the vibrating and dirty lenses. Both issues were taken care of!

You are a life saver! Thank you, just fixed my garage as well from your video

Thank you! I was having trouble with a job we had to finished. I really appreciate it

THANK YOU!!! Cleaned the sensors. Problem solved. I probably never would’ve thought of that, called a garage repair guy and been told I needed a new garage door or some expensive (and needless) repair.

Thank you so much...very informative and makes sense!!!! Going down to garage now to fix my door!!!!

Thank you! I thought I might have to call a repairman but I fixed the problem with your helpful video😊

Sam, THANK YOU so much...! Fantastic demonstration to resolve a menacing problem, without spending hundreds of bucks for a technician. Especially, a lot of people don't realize how important it is to clean the lenses after you cleaned up a dusty garage. My wife inadvertently disturbed the alignment of the sensor unit while sweeping with a broom :) (exactly as you explained here). I knew how to get the steady and solid green light back with a little adjustments of the sensor unit...... I even wiped the lens area of the receiving unit with my finger, but still the door didn't close fully and went back with the same blinking overhead light (INSTEAD of the proper alignment of sensor units and SOLID Green Light). I didn't know what else to do and luckily found your video here before calling a technician. I cleaned up both the lenses with a lint-less cloth, using the lenses & monitor screens cleaning volatile liquid. It WORKED perfectly to resolve the issue. Thanks again for this very informative and helpful video.

Excellent video, instruction explanation. Fixed my door! Thanks for uploading.

THANK GOD FOR YOU AND THIS VIDEO!! YOU SAVED ME 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

I just followed this video and finally got my door to close. There were spider webs on both sensors. As soon as I cleared these the problem was solved. Thank you!

Thanks so much for this video! It saved us from having to call a service person to solve our door problem!!

Thankyou! after reading my manual and getting frustrated, I found your video. The lens had a nice little cobweb over it. Thanks again.

Thank you soooo much, I was able to fix my door thanks to your video.

Exactly the problem! Please continue to educate us on the mechanics of our World!

I just fixed my garage door that would not close using the tips shown in this video, thank you so much!!

Easy to understand and each issue is handled with precise ways to repair that particular problem. Wish I had seen this before spending lots of $$$ throughout the years on repairs that I could have done myself....”very well done” video! Thanks so much.

This just happened to right now. Found this video while trying to find a solution myself. Thanks a lot for the video. Solved the issue instantly. 2 reasons why mine wouldn't work. A spider was just chilling on the right and also the was sensor pretty lose. Cleaned both of them and propped the right sensor now it works perfectly fine. Thanks again

Thank you so much for your video. My friend changed the opening code for me and then I was having issue with the door closing. I never in my wildest dreams thought your idea of the eye being dirty was the right answer. Guess what it was. You saved me money, thanks again.

Excellent. I just fixed my door. With this video

My sensor was loose and this video helped me realize that! Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the video. I think the cleaning of the lenses did the trick for me! Just in case, I got down and checked my wires, shook the rails and all that. My wife now thinks I’m a legitimate handyman. I owe you, man!

Excellent explanation. Very detailed. Thanks.

Thank you for posting! I fixed my garage door for the first time.

Thank you sir.lenses were loose after watching lots of videos this was the one that did it.once again thanks

Sam is the truth! Thank you for this tips. Just moved to a new house and door was stuck when closing. Just figured that one of the sensors was hanging by a zip tie. Seems like vibration got the tie moving and the sensor was loose pointing to the ground. Got the sensor back in the right position with the zip tie and it is operating back again. I'll take a look to see if why there is no screws holding the sensor, like in the other side, to figure out a better solution to the issue.

Thank you so much!!! My lasers just needed to be aligned!! Thank you for your help!!

Wow very useful. I thought I’d have to hire someone but it’s really just so simple.

Thanks for this! I moved the sensor by mistake and didn’t realize this was an issue!

Thanks Sam! Cleaning the lens did the job. Cob webs and dust.

Just fixed my garage thanks to this thank you so much

Thank you. You just saved me a lot of headache and some $$$ by teaching me to clean the sensors! :)

Thanks, I'm gonna check out all 4 reasons to see what could be the problem. We have a lot of snow against garage door and thought the eye might be frozen, but we'll see!

THANK YOU!!!!!! I took a chance to google my issue AFTER I booked an appointment with a local company. It was my sensors no aligning! Save myself some money, I would’ve been PISSED they did something soo simple. Lol!!!
