Maintenance Tips for Longevity
To keep your custom wood garage doors looking their best, regular maintenance is essential. Here are some tips we recommend, along with important factory regulations and guidelines to help you preserve their quality and appearance:
- Clean Regularly: Use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to gently clean the surface of your garage doors. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can strip protective finishes and damage the wood’s natural beauty. Regular cleaning prevents dirt and grime buildup, which can lead to long-term deterioration.
- Inspect for Damage: Periodically inspect your garage doors for signs of cracks, warping, or discoloration. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent further damage. Factory regulations advise that any structural damage should be repaired by a certified technician to ensure safety and compliance with warranty requirements.
- Apply a Protective Finish: Reapply a stain or sealant every two to three years to shield the wood from moisture, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations. Use only factory-approved finishes to avoid voiding the warranty. These approved finishes are formulated to enhance the wood’s natural characteristics while providing robust protection.
- Lubricate Hardware: Ensure smooth operation by applying lubricant to hinges, springs, and tracks as needed. Factory guidelines recommend using silicone-based lubricants, as petroleum-based products can degrade certain materials.
- Schedule Professional Inspections: An annual inspection by a certified professional ensures that your custom wood garage doors remain in optimal condition. Factory regulations require professional inspections to verify structural integrity and maintain compliance with warranty standards.
Color Guidelines and Restrictions
The color you choose for your custom wood garage doors significantly impacts both their appearance and durability. While many finishes are allowed, there are some factory-recommended options and restrictions:
- Approved Colors and Finishes:
- Natural Wood Tones: Stains that highlight the wood’s grain, such as cedar, mahogany, or walnut finishes, are highly recommended. These tones not only enhance the wood’s natural beauty but also align with factory-approved coatings for durability.
- Neutral Shades: Earthy colors like beige, gray, or soft brown are approved for their ability to blend with various architectural styles while maintaining the wood’s integrity.
- Restricted Colors:
- Dark Black or Non-Reflective Finishes: These colors can absorb excessive heat, leading to warping or cracking over time. Factory guidelines advise against using such shades to preserve the structural integrity of the doors.
- Bright Neon or Vibrant Paints: Colors like neon green or pink are not only aesthetically unconventional but may also contain chemicals that conflict with the protective coatings used during manufacturing.
By adhering to these color recommendations, you can ensure that your garage doors retain their stunning appearance while meeting factory standards for durability and longevity.
