Frequently asked in Virginia Beach

What does a garage door seal do?

A garage door seal along the bottom of your door acts as a barrier against weather, preventing rain, wind, and pests from entering your garage. It also helps improve energy efficiency by keeping conditioned air inside. If your seal is worn or damaged, it can lead to drafts and higher utility bills. Replacing it is a simple fix that offers significant benefits.

How do you align garage door sensors?

Aligning garage door sensors involves ensuring they are precisely positioned to face each other. The pros will check for any obstructions and make sure the indicator lights on both sensors are illuminated. If they are misaligned, the garage door opener won't function for safety reasons. A proper alignment is crucial for the door to open and close correctly. This is a common and easily fixable issue.
