Detroit’s Trusted Provider for Commercial Garage Door Opener Safety Systems
When it comes to commercial garage doors, safety isn’t optional—it’s mandatory. At 313 Garage Doors, we install and maintain advanced commercial garage door opener safety systems that help Detroit businesses meet code, protect people, and prevent costly damage.
From photo eyes and motion detectors to monitored entrapment protection, we ensure every component of your door system is compliant with UL 325, OSHA, and industry safety standards—because peace of mind should come standard.
Why Your Commercial Opener Needs a Safety System
Heavy-duty commercial doors move hundreds of pounds of steel, glass, or insulated material multiple times per day. One malfunction—without proper safeguards—can result in:
Injury to personnel or visitors
Vehicle or product damage
Insurance claims or legal liability
Code violations or failed inspections
Increased repair costs from preventable incidents
Adding the right safety system ensures your doors operate correctly, reverse when needed, and alert you before something goes wrong.
Components of a Complete Safety System
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Photo Eye Sensors | Detect obstructions in the door’s path |
| Monitored Edge Sensors | Auto-reverse on contact with people or objects |
| Emergency Stop/Reset Switches | Immediately halt door operation during an emergency |
| Battery Backup Units | Keep safety features active during power outages |
| Motion & Presence Sensors | Detect movement near the door before activation |
| Alarm & Warning Strobes | Alert users when the door is in motion |
| UL 325 & NFPA-80 Compliant Controls | Ensures legal compliance with safety standards |
