DENTS:
All roll formed and stamped steel can be dented, however, Martin regular and insulated high tensile steel door sections are rated among the strongest
and most dent resistant in the world.
Martin door sections do not require insulation bonded to them for strength. Because of this unique construction, many type dents can be easily repaired by a
trained Martin dealer. It may not be necessary to replace a door section or a complete door to avoid the prolonged appearance of a damaged surface.
DENT REPAIR:
Regular and insulated doors are usually repaired in the closed position. The insulation is skillfully cut and removed, the dent is tapped on each
side until the embossed surface is restored to near original. The insulation is replaced and detailed. New vinyl backing is available for damaged insulation.
Series II insulated doors are repaired the same except they require more time to remove the
back. After the repair, the
back is replaced and riveted.
CAUSES:
During a lifetime, various accidents can cause a dent, including bicycles, roller blades, wheelbarrows, tools, baseballs, rocks, etc.
