Caring For Your Door
Caring for the carriage house door for your garage starts when it arrives at your site. How it is stored, handled and finished PRIOR to installation is key to ensuring the longest life possible.
Keep in mind that there is no such thing as a NO-Maintenance door but we try to make maintenance as simple as possible. At least once a year, your overhead door and hardware should be inspected. More frequent cleanings are better and recommended if you live in A HARSH ENVIRONMENT such as a Coastal exposure.
Routine annual garage door maintenance
- can prevent damage caused by foreign matter – rusting, salt spray, etc.
- may restore the look of the factory-applied finish by removing dirt and chalking
- will allow you to assess when the top coat will need to be reapplied
