At Love That Door® , we don’t just design doors that look beautiful, we want to make sure they stay that way and perform perfectly for years to come. That’s why we love answering some of the most common questions we receive from homeowners about cleaning and operation.
Here are two of the biggest ones, and how we recommend handling them.
How to Clean Your Door the Right Way
One of the questions we hear most often is: “What should I use to clean my door?”
Our go-to recommendation is Sprayway. It’s ammonia-free, safe for your door’s finish, and easy to use — simply spray it on and wipe it clean to restore your door’s beautiful appearance.
One important tip: Avoid using Windex or other cleaners that contain ammonia, as those can damage the finish over time. Sticking with ammonia-free products will keep your door looking like new without compromising its quality.
Adjusting How Your Door Opens and Closes
Another common question customers ask is about how easy or hard the door should be to open and close.
The answer depends on the type of door you have:
- Wooden doors typically use a thumb latch mechanism.
- Steel doors, however, use roller catchers located at the top and bottom of the door.
These roller catchers are adjustable — a simple quarter-turn can make the door open more easily or require a firmer pull, depending on your preference and the weather conditions.
Proper adjustment is especially important during windy weather. If the roller catchers are too loose, the door could blow open. That’s why we make sure they’re set just right — so your door stays securely closed and easy to use.
Final Thoughts
From the cleaner you choose to the way your door is adjusted, small details make a big difference in both appearance and performance. With Sprayway for cleaning and properly adjusted roller catchers, your Love That Door® product will stay beautiful, strong, and functional for years to come.Have more questions about caring for your door?
