GENERAL CARE OF YOUR ROLL-A-DOOR

CLEANING

BLUESCOPE COLORBOND

FINISH

Your B&D Roll-A-Door

door has

been pre-painted with a silicone modifi ed polyester formulation, which
is one of the best paint fi lms commercially available today. However, all
exposed surfaces require some attention to guard against the premature
onset of corrosion and any other harmful atmospheric effects. In our
atmosphere there are harmful deposits that gather on the door surface
and if not removed regularly, will seriously affect the appearance and life
of the door.

Washing of the door with clean water and a cloth every 14 days is
recommended – particular care should be taken to clean areas of the
door not normally washed by rain, including the top of the door roll inside
the garage.

NOTE

: In locations where there is likely to be salt in the air or industrial

fallout is severe, more frequent washing is advisable and additional
protection of the surface maybe required.

Touch-up paint, if required, is available from your B&D dealer.

LOCK

Your lock does not require special maintenance, however, if the keyway
becomes stiff, the application of powdered graphite is recommended –
do not grease or oil the lock. The faceplate should be washed with soapy
water and rinsed well. Strong solvents, such as acetone, should not be
used – these will damage the surface.

WARNING!

Do not disassemble

the lock mechanism.

When opening the door, always make sure the key is with drawn from the
lock – if this is not done, the lock mechanism could be damaged and the
key bent or broken.

We suggest you record your full Key letter and Number on the front of
this manual and if replacement keys are required they can be obtained
from your nearest B&D offi ce, simply by quoting this number. If the keys
have been lost and the number not recorded, it can be found stamped
into the locking arm at the back of the mechanism.

NYLOFELT

On no account should you use grease or oil in the door

guides or on the Nylofelt

running strips – the grease or oil will clog the

Nylofelt

and spoil the operation of the door. An occasional wipe with a

cloth dampened with mineral turps or methylated spirits, down the inside
of each guide, is very benefi cial in removing any trace of grease or dirt.

After the guides have been cleaned, a silicon spray may be used in the
guides.

NOTE:

WD40 or similar oil based sprays are not silicon and should not

be used.

Care should be taken not to damage the Nylofelt

, however, if Nylofelt

cut or damaged, a lighted match should be used to quickly seal the ends
of the nylon braiding, so as to stop any further deterioration.

REGULAR MAINTENANCE REQUIRED

B&D recommends that you check the operation of your Roll-A-Door

at least every six months (more regularly in extreme environments or
frequent use). The effort required to manually open and to manually
close the door should be about the same (if door has an automatic
opener, put into manual mode before testing door). If the door is diffi cult
to operate in either direction (up or down) then check:

1) that the Nylofelt

running strips on each side of the door have not

slipped from the edge and are jamming the door;

2) that the door is running correctly in the guides and the guides are

straight and perpendicular; and

3) that the inside surfaces of the guides are clean and free of

obstructions. (see paragraph on care of Nylofelt

)

If you have checked these (and corrected where necessary) and the
door is still diffi cult to operate, , then your door will need a service to
adjust the spring tension and possibly other operational parts of the
door. This service should only be carried out by an experienced door
technician, using the correct tools.

If you have an automatic opener fi tted to your door, it is particularly
important that you ensure the optimum operation of the door, otherwise
you may reduce the effective life of the opener.

To keep your door running well, it is recommended that your door be
serviced, by an experienced door technician, every 12 months (more
regularly in extreme environments or frequent use), or earlier if required.

SPRING TENSION

It is natural for springs to lose tension over time. When spring tension
is adjusted or when your door is fi rst installed it is usual to apply a little
more tension than is required for balanced operation, to allow for the
normal “settling in” of the springs.

WARRANTY

The B&D Roll-A-Door

in normal residential use is covered by a 7

year warranty on door curtain, 12 months on surface (excludes salt
corrosion), all other parts 12 months, including lock. For industrial/
commercial applications the door is covered by 12 month warranty.

Warranty conditional on proper care as recommended above. Full details
of the warranty are available from your nearest B&D offi ce or visit the
B&D website: www.bnd.com.au
