12.6 Door and windows
Operation of door locks
To unlock the door from the outside, insert
key and turn anticlockwise, pull on the handle.
To lock, push the door to the closed position
so that the first stage lock engages. Lift the
handle upwards to engage the extra security
roller locks, insert the key and turn clockwise to
engage the deadlock.
Operation of window night vents
The window frame will have been fitted with a
secondary keep within the rebate. You can close
the handle to locate the spur inside this keep,
which will lock the window but allow a level of
ventilation.
Door and window handles
Apply silicone spray and wipe off excess with a
soft cloth.
Lock cylinder
Lubricate with PFTE (union part no. 9075) or
similar. Apply the key flutes, insert the key
and operate several times to ensure even
distribution. Latch, dead bolt and roller locks.
Apply petroleum jelly/Vaseline. This acts both as
lubricant and water repellent.
Doors and window hinges
No lubrication is required, smear with Vaseline
to protect against water.
Window friction stays
Protect with a mild detergent oil or a very light
lubricant, use sparingly as oil does attract dirt.
i Note: The recommended maintenance is
to lubricate every 6 months.
Minimum recommended cleaning intervals:
Monthly: Frames, door and window furniture.
Wash with warm water and a mild detergent. It
is important to ensure that all dirt and debris is
regularly removed from the internal rebate of
door and windows. Cleaning cloths should be
in-bleached cellulose/cotton material. Do not
use cloths containing synthetic fibres.
i Note: Make sure that you follow all the
recommendations and cautions supplied with
the product.
General Care
An occasional polish with a good quality wax will
help obtain a high gloss finish.
CAUTION: Under no circumstances should
an abrasive or harsh cleaner be used.
Stubborn marks, such as bird soiling, grease
etc. can be removed by rubbing with a soft cloth
dampened with White Spirit.
Small scratches and other minor damage can
be repaired with the use of CanExcel retouching
paint (Details can be found at
www.canexel.co.uk)
WARNING: Do not wash your RPH
with a high pressure washer as these can
permanently damage the exterior panels and
seals.
12.5 Snow precautions
Great caution should be taken when cleaning
snow from the roof of the Leisure Lodge. See
page 36 for advice on access to roofs.
