It has you test an opener monthly with a 1 1/2 inch object or a 2 by 4 laid flat, and DASMA suggests an annual visit from a trained technician. DASMA's final inspection checklist for sectional doors includes a tested reversing mechanism and photoelectric eyes installed and tested. Wyoming is 4.0 miles away and Kentwood 5.2.

Permits for garage door work in Cutlerville
Permits for work in Cutlerville may come from the township, the county or the state, depending on who enforces the code locally.
State law says construction or alteration of a building may not start until a building permit has been issued, unless the act or the code provides otherwise. No state page we can cite says whether replacing a garage door or an opener needs one, so the question goes to the city's building department.
