Garage Door Safety Inspection - Bend, Redmond, Sisters OR
Garage doors are the heaviest moving object in most homes - 300 to 400 pounds of steel held up by springs under extreme tension. We check that your safety sensors actually work, the auto-reverse stops the door before it crushes something, springs aren't about to snap, and cables aren't fraying. Quick inspection, written report, peace of mind. Especially important if you've got kids or pets.
Last updated:
IMPORTANT: Federal safety standards (UL 325) require garage doors to have working photo-eye sensors and auto-reverse mechanisms. Doors without these features pose serious injury risk, especially to children and pets.

"With three kids running in and out of the garage, safety wasn't optional. The inspection found our sensors were misaligned and the auto-reverse was set way too strong. Fixed on the spot. Peace of mind is worth it."
"Bought a house built in 1985 - garage door had no safety sensors at all. They brought it up to current code with new sensors and tested everything. Inspector was happy, I was happy. One less thing to worry about."
"Our dog got too close to the closing door and it didn't reverse. Terrifying near-miss. Called for an inspection the next day. Turns out the sensor beam was blocked by a cobweb. Cleaned, tested, adjusted. Problem solved."
