With aluminium being generally maintenance free, all you need to do is wash occasionally with warm soapy water and a sponge, then rinse. Its advised to regularly check the hinge bolt tightness periodically. Oil locks and handles as well as hinges with a light oil every couple of months. Remember to clean off any surplus or spilt oil off paintwork. If you have a automated gate, you should have a annual automation service by a competent inspector / installer to maintain the automation efficiency. Inspect for Damage: Periodically inspect your gate for any signs of damage, such as scratches, chips, or fading. Address any issues promptly to prevent further deterioration. Touch-Up Paint: If you notice any minor scratches or chips in the powder-coated finish, use touch-up paint specifically designed for metal surfaces to conceal the damage and prevent corrosion. Protect from Harsh Elements: Aluminium driveway gates with a powder-coated finish offer exceptional protection against extreme weather conditions and saltwater environments. The powder-coated finish acts as a barrier, shielding the gate from moisture, UV radiation, and corrosive elements present in harsh environments. By choosing an aluminium garden gate with a powder-coated finish, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your gate is well-equipped to withstand the rigours of outdoor exposure while maintaining its appearance and functionality for years to come. Avoid Abrasive Contact: Be cautious when placing or moving objects near your gate to avoid scratching or damaging the powder-coated surface. By following these care instructions, you can preserve the beauty and integrity of your aluminium driveway gate with a powder-coated finish for years to come.

Clean the aluminium gates and posts with a non abrasive cloth or sponge and thoroughly rinse off with a mild detergent as often as you want to clean the products. Don't use any chemicals or abrasive solutions on the powder coating that could damage the paintwork. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down your gate with a soft cloth or sponge and mild detergent solution regularly to remove dust, dirt, and other debris. Rinse thoroughly with clean water afterward. Avoid Abrasive Cleaners: Refrain from using abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals on the powder-coated surface, as they can scratch or damage the finish.
