FAQ

What Wakefield Folks Ask

01

What are the most common garage door injuries?

The top three we see are: hands caught in spring mechanisms (often during DIY attempts), fingers pinched between panel sections, and injuries from cables snapping under tension. Light Garage Door Repair technicians are trained in OSHA-compliant procedures to eliminate these risks.

02

How often should I test my door's safety features?

Monthly. Place a 2x4 board flat on the floor in the door's path and trigger the opener - the door should reverse when it contacts the board. Also test the photo-eye sensors by waving your hand across the beam as the door closes. Light Garage Door Repair checks all of these during service visits.

03

Is my old garage door unsafe?

Older doors (pre-1993) often lack modern safety features required by federal law - specifically the photo-eye reversal system and automatic reverse-on-contact. If your door is from the 1980s or earlier without those features, we strongly recommend an opener upgrade at minimum.

04

What safety certifications do your technicians hold?

All Light Garage Door Repair technicians complete IDEA (International Door Association) safety training and receive regular updates on UL 325 compliance, the federal safety standard for residential garage door operators. We're also certified by major brands on their specific safety systems.

05

Can children safely operate a garage door?

Modern openers with photo-eyes and reversal systems are safe for supervised use by older children (typically 10+). Wall controls should be mounted at least 5 feet off the floor per federal guidelines. Remotes should not be left where young children can access them unattended.

06

What are "pinch-resistant" garage door panels?

Modern door panels (manufactured since about 2002) use a special hinge design that prevents fingers from being pinched between sections during operation. If your door has flat inter-section gaps where a hand could be caught, a panel replacement or full door replacement is worth considering.
