A.
- Doors should always be opened and closed in accordance with operating instructions. If you have misplaced the operating instructions, please contact us and we’ll be happy to replace them.
- Hinges and locking mechanisms should be lubricated periodically to minimize wear and to ensure smooth operations.
- In carrying out regular maintenance outside, the internal surfaces are frequently neglected. After a period of time, grime can discolour the inside of the frame and it is recommended that these should be cleaned regularly. Due to the marine coating on your door, would recommend a monthly cleaning interval.
A.
- Wash down with clean warm water containing a non-alkaline liquid detergent (in a concentration which can be handled safely with bare hands) using a non-abrasive cloth, sponge or soft bristle brush. This will remove grime, grease, and any excess chalking. All ridges, grooves, joints, and drainage channels where salt or other deposits can collect should be well washed out, thus preventing corrosion sites from occurring!
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Dry using a soft cloth or leather.
- Where a reduction in gloss is observed, chalking is evident or excessive staining has occurred, then an approved renovating cream may be carefully applied with a nonabrasive cloth.
- Care must be taken not to abrade sharp corners of section or aris of beads too heavily where the paint film is normally thinner, and it should be remembered that this operation should not be carried out too frequently.
- Polish with a soft cloth to restore gloss and colour uniformity.
- For extra protection, a wax polish can be applied once or twice a year again polishing with a soft cloth to restore the glass.
