Maintaining Your Commercial Glass Door, Part 2

Do you know how to properly maintain your commercial aluminum door?

Secure Loose Handles and Hardware

Loose handles and hardware become costly repairs if ignored. Here’s what you should do to prevent wear and tear:

• Tighten loose handles ASAP to prevent further wear on the mounting components.
• Regularly inspect all hardware for signs of damage or wear.

 

Use Proper Door Stops

Improvised door stops (like rocks or wedges) can damage hinges and fasteners. Instead, you should:

• Use appropriate hold-open hardware, such as kickdown stops or closers with hold-open arms.

Protect Glass from Breakage

Glass breakage can be minimized with these precautions:

• Keep entry areas clear of rocks or debris that landscaping equipment might throw.
• Remove loose objects like bricks or planters near busy sidewalks that could be used to damage glass.
