Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your bifold door.
- Cleaning: Wipe the door panels with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The water-resistant surface allows for easy cleaning.
- Hardware: Periodically check all screws and hardware for tightness. Lubricate the track and pivots with a silicone-based lubricant if the door does not glide smoothly.
- Surface Care: The scratch-resistant surface helps prevent minor damage. For deeper scratches or to change the aesthetic, the door is paintable.
