4. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your TODOME Metal Gate. The gate features an electrostatic powder coating, which provides excellent durability.

• Cleaning: Clean the gate periodically with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the electrostatic powder coating. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Hinge Lubrication: Lubricate hinges and moving parts of the lock and latch mechanisms annually, or more frequently in harsh environments, to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust. Use a silicone-based lubricant or light machine oil.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the gate for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Check the integrity of the posts and their connection to the gate.
• Coating Protection: The electrostatic powder coating offers high resistance to corrosion, high temperatures, impacts, abrasion, extreme weather conditions, and UV rays. However, avoid sharp objects or excessive force that could chip or scratch the coating.
• Drainage: Ensure that water drains away from the base of the gate and posts to prevent pooling, which can lead to corrosion over time.
