Can I paint my door...
MERANTI Wooden Doors: Doors are coloured with SMI
Silk wood Oil.
After
installation Roos Garage Doors recommends that doors are treated
after 3 month, 6 months and then every year. Roos Garage Doors DO NOT
recommend Meranti Wood Doors to be painted.
Roll-up: All doors are factory painted. Out of warranty,
doors can be painted using high quality exterior latex paint.
What is Tension and Torsion systems...
Depending on your application and door needs, Meranti standard
sectional single doors are fitted with tension springs. Tension
springs
are fixed to a cable and pulley system on each side of the
horizontal tracks/channels.
All Double and Caravan doors (including Single) are fitted with torsion spring systems. A torsion bar is fixed to wall brackets and two torsion springs are mounted on each side of the centre bearing. It is possible to use the torsion system for single doors as well, but this will increase the cost...
