5.1 Preparing the Opening

7. Maintenance

7.1 Lubrication

To ensure smooth operation of the sliding glass panel, periodically apply a small amount of lubricant (such as silicone spray or a few drops of oil) to the tracks. This prevents sticking and wear over time.

7.2 Cleaning

• Clean the glass with a standard glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
• Wipe down the aluminum frame with a mild soap and water solution.
• The screen can be gently cleaned with a soft brush or vacuumed to remove dust and debris.

7.3 Screen Removal (for cleaning or replacement)

8. Troubleshooting

• Window sticks or is difficult to slide: Apply lubricant to the tracks as described in the Maintenance section. Check for any debris in the tracks and clean if necessary.
• Water leakage: Inspect the sealant around the exterior frame. Reapply sealant if any gaps or cracks are found. Ensure screws are tightened appropriately.
• Screen damage: The screen can be replaced if torn or damaged. Refer to the screen removal video for guidance.
