GENERAL CARE OF YOUR PANELIFT
CLEANING
COLORBOND
®
& COLOURED STEEL FINISH Your b&D
panelift has been pre-painted with a silicone modified polyester
formulation, which is one of the best paint films commercially
available today. However, all exposed surfaces require some
attention to guard against the premature onset of corrosion
and any other harmful atmospheric effects. In our atmosphere
there are harmful deposits that gather on the door surface and
if not removed regularly, will seriously affect the appearance
and life of the door.
washing of the door with clean water and a cloth every 14 days
is recommended – particular care should be taken to clean
areas of the door not normally washed by rain.
LOCK
Your lock does not require special maintenance, however, if the
keyway becomes stiff, the application of powdered graphite is
recommended – do not grease or oil the lock.
WARNING! Do not disassemble the lock mechanism and do
not allow paint to enter the lock keyway.
HINGES & HANGERS
plastic hinges – no lubrication is generally required, however
silicon spray or lithium grease may be used if necessary.
CABLES
Check the cables regularly for corrosion, fraying or tangling, if
any of these are evident call your service provider.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE REQUIRED
b&D recommends that you check the operation of your
panelift at least every six months (more regularly in extreme
environments or frequent use). The effort required to manually
open and to manually close the door should be about the same
(if door has an automatic opener, put into manual mode before
testing door).
If the door is difficult to operate in either direction (up or down)
then check that the inside surfaces of the guides are clean and
free of obstructions.
If the door is still difficult to operate, then your door will need
a service to adjust the spring tension and possibly other
operational parts of the door.
This service should only be carried out by an experienced door
technician, using the correct tools.
If you have an automatic opener fitted to your door, it is
particularly important that you ensure the optimum operation
of the door, otherwise you may reduce the effective life of the
opener.
To keep your door running well, it is recommended that your
door be serviced, by an experienced door technician, every 12
months (more regularly in extreme environments or frequent
use), or earlier if required.
SPRING TENSION
It is natural for springs to lose tension over time. when spring
tension is adjusted or when your door is first installed it is usual
to apply a little more tension than is required for balanced
operation, to allow for the normal “settling in” of the springs.
Lightly lubricate to prevent friction between the coils.
WARRANTY
warranty conditional on proper care as recommended above.
