Maintenance
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER ON YOUR GARAGE DOOR!
An annual inspection of all the surfaces of your garage door(s) will reveal
the extent of weath- ering and the possible need for refinishing, When the
finish becomes eroded or thin, clean and prime any areas showing
deterioration. Then completely refinish the door, according to the directions,
listed below, or the manufacturer’s label directions, Proper finishing of the
wood substrates to protect your door(s) from the effects of moisture and
sunlight is vital in extending the service life and beautifying your garage
door(s).
The interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges must be properly
primed, painted and maintained, to protect and beautify your door, These
finishing instructions are intended to achieve both objectives for your wood
doors(s).
NOTE: Be sure to clean behind weatherstrios on both sides and top of
door.
CAUTION
NEVER MIX CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.
GLASS CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After
cleaning, rinse
thoroughly.
ACRYLIC CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water.
Use your bare hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-
free cloth, sponge or chamois may be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard
or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic glazing. Dry glazing with a
clean damp chamois.
NOTE: Do not use any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty
cloths or solvent- based cleaners of any kind.
Preparations
Clean all surfaces of dust, dirt and any other contaminants. Any scarring or stains that occur during transportation, handling or storage must be re-sanded to the original condition.
Painting Your Grage Door
A high quality exterior 100% Acrylic Latex based finish paint is recommended
for painting your wood door. FOR BEST RESULTS DO NOT USE A DARK COLOR PAINT.
HIGH HEAT ABSORPTION CAN CAUSE EXCESSIVE BOWING AND CRACKING OF THE WOOD. If
priming is necessary, prime the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all
edges, using a primer compatible with the selected finish paint and for the
specific species of wood substrate being finished.
NOTE: Some species of wood, such as cedar, require special primers and
finishes to prevent tannin stains from appearing. Consult with your paint
supplier.
If the door is factory primed by Wayne Dalton, the priming step is not
required, except if touch-up is needed due to surface preparation and re-
sanding.
NOTE: Wayne-Dalton uses a latex primer.
Finish paint the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges with at
least 2 coats of a high quality exterior 100% Acrylic Latex finish paint over
the primer. Follow paint manufac- ture’s label directions explicitly for all
coatings.
IMPORTANT: THE FOLLOWING TOP COATS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. SHAKE AND SHINGLE
PAINTS, CLEAR COATINGS, OIL OR ALKYD PAINTS, VINYL ACETATE (PVA), VINYL
ACRYLIC OR VINYL ACETATE ACRYLIC CO-POLYMER PAINTS.
Clear or stained Finishes
If staining, select an exterior grade stain, approved for use on the species
of wood substrates being finished and compatible with Alkyd varnishes. FOR
BEST RESULTS DO NOT USE A DARK STAIN. HIGH HEAT ABSORPTION CAN CAUSE EXCESSIVE
BOWING AND CRACKING OF THE WOOD. Apply the stain to the interior and exterior
surfaces, as well as all edges, following stain manufacturer’s label
directions. After proper drying time for the stain, or if wood is being left
natural, apply 1 coat of waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish (marine type
varnish) to the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges. After
recommended drying time of 1st coat, sand all surfaces with fine grit (320)
sandpaper. Clean all surfaces of sanding dust and apply a 2nd coat of the
Alkyd varnish to the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges.
After 2nd coat is dry, sand all surfaces again with fine grit (320) sandpaper.
Clean all surfaces of sanding dust and apply a final 3rd coat of the Alkyd
varnish to all surfaces.
Three finish coats of waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish are required to
properly finish a stained or natural wood door, Follow the finish
manufacturer’s label directions explicitly for each coat applied.
NOTE: Do not stain MDO plywood, apply paint only.
Only a waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish top coat finish is approved for
stained or natural wood doors, Other types of top coat finishes, including
deck sealers, are not acceptable and if used, will void the warranty.

Monthly Inspections:
1. Visual Inspection: Closely inspect jambs, header and mounting
surface. Any wood found not to be structurally sound must be replaced. Inspect
the springs, counterbalance lift cables, track rollers, pulleys, rear back
hangs and other door hardware for signs of worn or broken parts. Tighten any
loose screws and/or bolts. Check exterior surface of the door sections for any
minor cracks. Verify door has not shifted right or left in the opening. If you
suspect problems, have a trained door system technician make the repairs.
WARNING
GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS, COUNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLES, BRACKETS, AND OTHER HARDWARE
ATTACHED TO THE SPRINGS ARE UNDER EXTREME TENSION, AND IF HANDLED IMPROPERLY,
CAN CAUSE SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY. ONLY A TRAINED DOOR SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN
SHOULD ADJUST THEM, BY CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING
NEVER REMOVE, ADJUST, OR LOOSEN THE BOLTS, SCREWS AND/OR LAG SCREWS ON THE
COUNTERBALANCE (END OR CENTER BEARING BRACKETS) SYSTEM OR BOTTOM CORNER
BRACKETS OF THE DOOR.
THESE BRACKETS ARE CONNECTED TO THE SPRING(S) AND ARE UNDER EXTREME TENSION.
TO AVOID POSSIBLE SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY, HAVE ANY SUCH WORK PERFORMED BY A
TRAINED DOOR SYSTEMS TECHNICIAN USING PROPER TOOLS AND INSTRUCTIONS.
TorqueMaster® Plus Springs: Pawl knob(s} (located on the TorqueMaster™ end
brackets above the door) should be engaged to prevent the door from rapidly
descending in case of spring failure or forceful manual operation. Torsion
Springs: The torsion springs (located above the door) should only be adjusted
by a trained door systems technician. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust
torsion springs yourself. Extension Springs: A restraining cable or other
device should be installed on the extension spring (located above the
horizontal tracks) to help contain the spring if it breaks.
2. Door Balance: Periodically test the balance of your door. If you have
a garage door drawbar operator, use the release mechanism so you can operate
the door by hand when do-ing this test. Start with the door in the fully
closed position. Lift the door to check its balance. Adjust TorqueMaster® or
Extension spring(s), if door lifts by itself (hard to pull down) or if door is
difficult to lift (easy to pull down). DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust
Torsion Springs yourself. To adjust TorqueMaster® or Extension spring(s),
refer to your installation instructions and owner’s manual. If in question
about any of the procedures, do not perform the work. Instead, have it
adjusted by a trained door systems technician.
3. Lubrication: The door should open and close smoothly. Ensure the door
track rollers are rotating freely when opening and closing the door. If track
rollers do not rotate freely, clean the door tracks, removing dirt and any
foreign substances. Clean and lubricate (use a non-silicon based lubricant)
graduated end hinges, center hinge(s), steel track rollers, bearings and
torsion spring(s) (torsion spring coil surfaces). DO NOT lubricate plastic
idler bearings, nylon track rollers, door track. DO NOT oil a cylinder lock,
if actuation is difficult use a graphite dust to lubricate.
