Will the colour of my garage door fade in the Dubai sun?

Any painted surface can fade slowly under strong Dubai sun, but a factory baked finish on a steel or aluminium panel holds its colour far better than site painted metal or timber. Darker colours and south facing doors show change earlier than light tones.

To limit fading, choose a durable powder or baked coating, wash the door with mild soap and water to remove dust and salt, and avoid harsh cleaners that dull the surface. Wood effect finishes should also be wiped regularly so sand does not scratch the film.

Mount Everest Automatic Doors can show finishes that suit villa fronts in Dubai and advise on colour before you order. See residential garage doors for designs.
