How to properly maintain garage doors?

For a long lifespan of garage doors, regular cleaning and inspection of vital components are recommended. Proper maintenance is crucial for the longevity and safe operation of the doors. It is advisable to clean the doors at least once every six months using warm water with a neutral detergent and to clean the tracks and seals. Tracks and the gap under the door should be cleaned regularly to avoid the accumulation of leaves and dirt. It is also important to ensure that there are no obstructions under the door to ensure smooth operation. Regularly check mechanical components such as hinges and springs. If any operational issues arise, it is recommended to schedule a service inspection to ensure optimal door performance. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs in the future.

Tehrol garage doors are made from high-quality aluminum materials, offering high resistance to impacts and break-in attempts. Their robust construction, supported by multi-layer painted slats, is further reinforced with security solutions such as pressure switches in the bottom bar, which interrupt the door’s operation when in contact with an obstacle.
