STEEL FRAMING & GUTTERING MAINTENANCE

Our framing requires minimal maintenance. However, the SmartShelters Team needs to be notified if there are any area of concern. 

SmartShelters Installation team can inspect your galvanized steel side guttering on your shelter every 12-36 months. If necessary, we can remove any debris in the gutters and ensure the roof flaps are fixed correctly into the gutters. 

CHECK YOUR STEEL ROLLER DOORS

To extend the lifespan of your steel roller doors, we highly recommend ensuring that the guides of the roller doors always remain free from any obstructions or debris. Failure to do so may result in difficulties in the opening and closing of the doors. We encourage you to contact us if you have any concerns about your doors.
