Maintaining the Functional Performance of Your Hardware

 
Mortice Locks
To free up moving components WD40 can be sprayed into the lock body around the bolt and latch area. For the best results depress the latch bolt for easy access to working parts. Operate the lock approximately ten times to lubricate moving parts.
  Hinges
  Regular cleaning to remove build-up will ensure that the hinges retain a smooth operation. When necessary WD40 can be used to lubricate.
  Cylinders
 
Salt build-up along with dust and grit can effect the performance of your cylinders. Keys can become harder to turn as buildup accumulates.silicon spray is effective in reviving your cylinders. Spray in the cylinder and on the key. The repeated use of the key in the cylinder will free up the working components.
  Bi-fold Door Rollers
  Keep the track clean of debris such as sand, leaves and dust. If the roller does appear to be stiff, Vaseline on the bearing can free this up.
