Winter maintenance of aluminum alloy doors and windows

When it comes to aluminum alloys, especially in winter, there are often overlooked issues when turning them on or off. These problems usually stem from improper protection, particularly during the colder months when temperature and humidity fluctuations can affect the performance of aluminum doors and windows. As a result, minor defects may appear more frequently. To better maintain your aluminum alloy products during seasonal changes, here are some key points to consider: 1. In spring, autumn, and winter, ensure good ventilation in your home and maintain a balanced indoor humidity level. This helps keep the aluminum at a stable, normal room temperature. 2. Avoid frequently wiping aluminum surfaces with water or other solutions, as this could lead to discoloration of the door lock. When adjusting the handle or opening the door, avoid applying excessive force, which might damage the mechanism. If hardware components like hinges or door locks become loose, tighten them immediately. 3. Keep indoor temperatures in winter moderate—around 20°C is ideal. Avoid placing heating devices too close to aluminum structures, as direct heat can cause deformation. 4. Refrain from rubbing the corners of the aluminum alloy regularly, as this can cause fading or damage to edges and corners. 5. For cleaning stains on the surface of aluminum, use a damp cloth with a mild cleaner like kerosene. For stubborn stains, toothpaste or a specialized furniture cleaner can be used. Always clean promptly after removing the stain. 6. Schedule regular cleaning and dusting. You can also use wood-based decorative products to help preserve the appearance of your aluminum alloy items. 7. Avoid hanging heavy objects on the door panel or allowing sharp objects to scratch or hit the surface. When opening or closing the door, do not apply excessive force or open it beyond the recommended angle, as this can cause unnecessary wear. After summer’s “bake” test, aluminum alloy may be more prone to moisture-related issues in winter. It's important to maintain proper humidity and temperature levels to extend its lifespan. Using a humidifier is an effective way to increase indoor humidity, but it should be placed at least 2 meters away from people and other appliances. Ideally, keep it at least 1 meter away from furniture and other electronics to prevent condensation or damage. In addition, you can mop the floor or apply wax to the surface of the aluminum alloy in winter to help retain moisture and protect the lock mechanisms. Proper care during the cold season ensures your aluminum products remain in excellent condition for years to come.
