    That's odd, sensors will allow opening, but can stop door from closing.
    I would remove power(unplug for about 10 seconds) and plug back in, it may have gotten confused.

    Thanks for the help. Turns out it was a worn out keypad. Bought another one for $40.00 from Amazon. All is good now.

    Thanks again for your help.
