Maintaining Aluwdoors doors and walls

Maintenance of aluminium profiles

Planning to give the aluminium parts of your door a good cleaning? Then get mild detergents in the house. This will keep the material looking beautifully finished. Avoid harsh cleaners, scouring pads and solvents to avoid scratches or discolouration. 

Instead, use a soft cloth or sponge with warm water. Finally, rinse the surface with clean water and dry carefully to avoid water spots.

Cleaning and protecting glass

For streak-free results when cleaning glass, it is important to use the right material. For example, a soft cloth is ideal for cleaning glass. Another option is to use a microfibre cloth in combination with warm water and a small amount of glass cleaner. Abrasive materials are best left in the cupboard as they cause scratches or a dull haze. 

Avoid streaks on the glass by drying it well after cleaning. Fortunately, this is also easy to avoid by cleaning the glass regularly. Do this extra often in damp rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens. Did limescale build up anyway? Then clean the glass with a mild glass cleaner or limescale remover.

Maintaining handles and fittings

A beautiful door that works smoothly is really an asset to your home. You get this done by regularly cleaning the handles and latches as well. 

Use mild all-purpose cleaner and a slightly damp cloth to clean metal handles. Choose a soft sponge rather than an abrasive sponge, as it may scratch or discolour. Check all parts of the door regularly, such as latches and parts that move. That way, you will enjoy it for years without problems and with great pleasure.

Protection of finishes

A well-finished door that lasts a long time doesn't just happen. You have to put some effort into it. For example, regularly clean the layers of paint and coating on your aluminium door with a mild, non-abrasive soap. This will keep the colour on your door beautiful for a long time.
