Does the vinyl yellow over time?
Not EverDoor™ vinyl, because of Wayne-Dalton’s vast experience with vinyl. Unlike many vinyl products that become yellow or chalky with time, EverDoor retains its new look for decades. This is due in large part to DuPont Ti-Pure® titanium dioxide, a key ingredient which assures color consistency and stability throughout the vinyl.

Does the vinyl become brittle in cold weather?
Actually, yes. However, due to the chemical bonding of the vinyl to the structural polyurethane foam core, the impact resistance of EverDoor vinyl is substantially increased.

Does the vinyl expand and contract?
Yes, all vinyl does. But with EverDoor, that’s not a problem. The vinyl skin’s chemical bond to its structural foam core minimizes expansion and contraction, and the skin’s “floating wrap” to the inside of the door section allows for the expansion and contraction that does occur.

Is there a thermal break between
the interior and exterior?
No. A thermal break is used to prevent condensation caused by the transfer of cold from one piece of metal to another. None is necessary because EverDoor is made of vinyl.

How do I clean the door?
Use a soft bristled washing brush. Attach it to your garden hose to make washing easier. For hard to remove dirt, wipe the door down with a solution of the following ingredients:
    1/3 cup powdered detergent
         (Tide, Fab or equivalent powder detergent)
    2/3 cup household cleaner (Spic & Span or equivalent)
    1 gallon water

Can I paint the door?
No. Painting the door voids the warranty.

“EverDoor is Virtually Kidproof”—
exactly what does that mean?
It’s a fact of life that children play ball in the driveway. Whether it’s baseball, basketball, or football, an errant throw may strike the door. This will almost certainly cause denting in a steel door. We do not promote this type of activity, as abuse is not covered under the warranty. However, we have been known to bounce a ball off our door to demonstrate its phenomenal impact resistance, so you know it’s tough. EverDoor Garage Doors — Virtually Kidproof!
