1. Cleaning Precautions
Cleaning Tool Selection: Avoid using rough tools such as steel wool and hard brushes to clean stainless steel door suction (a term likely referring to a door stopper or similar device; for clarity, it's better to use "door stopper" hereafter). Such tools can easily leave scratches on the surface of the door stopper, destroying the protective layer of stainless steel and reducing its anti-corrosion performance. It is recommended to use soft cotton cloths, sponges, and other tools to gently wipe the surface of the door stopper, which can effectively remove dust and stains without damaging it.
Use of Cleaning Agent: Do not use cleaning agents containing acidic or alkaline ingredients, such as toilet cleaners and Mr. Muscle (a brand name; a more general term like "strong cleaning agents" could be used if the brand is not essential to the context). These cleaning agents will react chemically with stainless steel, causing discoloration and rust on the surface of the door stopper. You can choose a neutral cleaning agent, such as mild dishwashing liquid, dilute it, and dip a soft cloth in it to gently wipe the surface of the door stopper. Then, rinse it with clean water and finally wipe the water with a dry cloth to prevent water stains from remaining and forming water marks.
Adsorption Surface Cleaning: The adsorption surface of the door stopper is the key part to ensure its adsorption effect, so be extra careful when cleaning. Wipe the adsorption surface with a clean soft cloth regularly to remove dust, iron filings, and other impurities. If the adsorption surface is stained with oil, use a small amount of alcohol or a special stainless steel cleaner to clean it to ensure that the adsorption surface is clean and maintains good adsorption performance.
2. Maintenance Precautions
Component Inspection: Regularly check the various components of the stainless steel door stopper to see if the screws are loose, if the magnets are displaced, if the springs are deformed, etc. If the screws are loose, tighten them with a screwdriver in time; if the magnets are displaced, carefully reset them; if the springs are severely deformed, replace them with new springs. Through regular inspection and maintenance, ensure that the various components of the door stopper work normally and extend their service life.
Rust-Proof Treatment: Although stainless steel has good rust-proof properties, it may still rust in humid and high-salt environments. For door stoppers that are in such environments for a long time, apply a thin layer of anti-rust oil to the surface of the door stopper at regular intervals to form a protective film and enhance its anti-rust ability. At the same time, if slight rust is found on the surface of the door stopper, gently polish it with fine sandpaper and then apply anti-rust oil.
Avoid External Impact: In daily use, avoid strong impacts of the door on the door stopper to prevent it from being damaged due to severe impact. When opening and closing the door, try to push and pull gently to reduce the impact force on the door stopper, especially for magnetic door stoppers. Excessive impact may cause the magnetism of the magnet to weaken or the adsorption surface to deform, affecting the adsorption effect.
Installation Position Check: Regularly check whether the installation position of the door stopper is offset. If the fit between the door stopper and the door body, wall, or floor is found to be poor, adjust it in time. For door stops fixed with screws, loosen the screws and readjust the position before tightening; for door stops fixed with glue, if the position is seriously offset, clean the residual glue and reinstall it to ensure that the door stopper is installed firmly and accurately.
