Opener Safety Sensor Repair Maryland


By a federal law, every automated gate in Maryland, or anywhere else in America, should include safety feature! No matter if it is a gate repair in Fairfax, or gate repair in Maryland MD, every opener installation in Maryland should include safety feature which protect someone, something or even the gate itself from breaking or injuring someone in case the closing gate hit them.
The most popular safety feature you can find in residential gates in Maryland is the laser safety sensors. The safety sensors in automated gates in MD are installed on each side of the gate, usually no more than 6 inches from the ground, and should reverse the moving gate in case something is located on its path. If you own an automated gate, and there are no safety sensors installed, contact a gate company in MD to come and install them for you. The gate may work fine without them, but it is not safe, since every automated gate in Maryland should include safety sensors.

How the safety sensors work?

The gate safety sensors have no part in operating of the gate, but have a big part in the safe use of the gate. And that works for every gate whether it is a gate in Maryland, a gate in MD or anywhere else. If something blocking the gate’s path, like a car, pet, or a person, it will block the invisible laser beam between the 2 sensors at the same time the gate is going down and closing, the gate will stop its movement and reverse to open position. If you live in Maryland and there are no safety sensors installed in your, please contact a local gate company in Maryland to come and install safety sensors for you.
