Why Colorbond Steel Dominates Coastal Garage Door Performance

Salt Air Corrosion Resistance in Northern Beaches Climate: The zinc-aluminium metallic coating actively resists salt spray corrosion through sacrificial protection.
UV Stability & Colour Retention Under Intense Coastal Sun: Thermatech® solar-reflective technology prevents colour fading, chalking, and peeling under intense UV exposure.
Thermal Efficiency & Energy Performance Benefits: Colorbond steel reflects solar heat while optional insulation cores reduce temperature transfer. This combination lowers cooling costs in summer and maintains comfortable garage temperatures year-round for Northern Beaches properties.
