Security grille maintenance and care

The great thing about security grilles? They require very little maintenance, especially since they have no electrical components.

Cross-Guard’s security grilles are provided with a care and maintenance pack, and fitting instructions, if necessary. The broad range of security grilles on offer from the company, for domestic and commercial security, all require only routine maintenance such as general cleaning.

EXACTLY HOW EASY IS IT TO MAINTAIN CROSS-GUARD’S SECURITY GRILLES?

There are numerous benefits of using security grilles rather than security shutters: low maintenance with no associated costly parts is one of them. Easy to maintain, security grilles operate manually to ensure you always have complete control. You don’t have the risk of any electrical faults. Read on to discover just how easy security grille maintenance is.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE FOR YOUR SECURITY GRILLE SYSTEM

To preserve the smooth operation of your secure grilles and the aesthetically pleasing appearance, we advise you give them a regular clean by dusting and wiping with a damp cloth that contains mild detergent ie. soapy water.

When dusting security grilles, pay particular attention to the security grille track and the top of lattices, as these are the most likely places for dust to build up. If the bottom track of the security grille is particularly dusty, you can also vacuum up the dust and debris with a handheld vacuum. Keeping on top of dust is especially important if your security grille has a surface or recess mounted grille track, as this will ensure your security grille will retract smoothly and without any issues.
