What Coastal Air Does to Your Door
Persistent damp and airborne salt promote rust on springs, hinges, tracks, and fasteners, and can swell or fade wood and painted surfaces. Left unchecked, corrosion shortens the life of moving parts and leads to noisier, rougher operation.
Simple Steps That Help
Rinsing the exterior periodically, keeping tracks clean, applying a quality lubricant to rollers and springs a few times a year, and repainting bare spots all slow corrosion. An annual professional inspection catches rust before it causes a failure.
