Durham Smart Opener Behavior
Smart openers in Durham often experience sensor drift due to humidity changes in the Triangle. This causes intermittent failure and false obstruction alerts — symptoms homeowners frequently mistake for a broken opener. Proper calibration of the safety sensors and opener load settings prevents these issues and extends the life of the system.
