Perth provider of storage sheds, garages, stables and other structures elaborates on the dos and don’ts of garage door maintenance.
Perth, WA, 22 May 2014 – Action Sheds Australia, a provider of garages and sheds in Perth and other parts of Australia, has come out with a list of tips detailing the ways shed owners can maintain their Colorbond garage doors.

According to Max Italiano, owner of Action Sheds Australia, doors play a major role as to how efficient a shed or garage may be. He added that among the best options that owners can make use of are Colorbond doors.

Italiano explained that these doors are quite efficient and durable, having been specifically designed to withstand the weather conditions in Australia.

The Action Sheds owner, however, reminds people that despite being efficient door options, people should not forget to take the proper maintenance procedures for their Colorbond garage doors.

Mr Italiano said: “Colorbond garage doors need to be maintained correctly in order to make sure that they stay in great shape. They are built to be durable, but it doesn’t mean you should just leave them unattended. Fortunately, maintaining them isn’t really that hard. In fact, simple procedures such as regular cleaning can actually have long-lasting effects.”

Here are some effective ways to maintain garage doors, as provided by Mr Italiano:

Regular Washing

Regular washing of the surface of your Colorbond garage doors can help ensure that its colour and paint remains in good condition.

The general rule is that door surfaces need to be manually washed every 6 months. If the shed or garage is located at a coastal area and is constantly exposed to salty water spray, washing every 3 months is recommended. Outside door surfaces that are constantly washed down by rainwater need not be washed as often as interior surfaces.

Grime and Dirt Removal

If there appears stubborn dirt and grime, remove them immediately. The longer they remain on the door surface, the harder they are to remove.

Users should also take into account the cleaners and detergents they are using. Although it may seem that utilising detergents can quickly solve the issue, there are instances when they actually cause more damage instead of fixing the problem. As it is, people are advised to only use cleaners that are recommended by the manufacturers.

Use of Proper Cleaning Tools

When cleaning garage doors, people should keep in mind the tools they are using. People should refrain from using coarse scourers, such as those made of steel, to prevent damaging the paint. Preferably, people should use soft cloths or sponges for cleaning, as this can help maintain the overall aesthetics and usability of the door and its surface.
