Trellis Gates - Cleaning and Maintenance

$150

Marden SA, Australia

17th Jan 2026

Thorough clean and maintenance (oiling) of metal security trellis gates. Preferably someone that has experience working with this product. https://www.trellisdoors.com.au/product/home-security-doors/sliding-doors/french-doors-s02 RECOMMENDED CLEANING METHOD : 1. Dip a soft cloth into a diluted mixture of soap and water and wipe down the entire unit. 2. Dry off the unit using a similar soft cloth or chamois. 3. Always lubricate the moving parts of the product after cleaning. Use a lubricating SILICONE spray for this purpose, purchased from any hardware store. 4. Should the cylinder lock become a bit difficult to use, then try a DRY lubricant. WHAT NOT TO DO : 1. Never use detergent or abrasive cleaners like Dishwashing liquid, thinners etc. as this will affect the longevity of the product. 2. Avoid using lubricants like WD40 or Q20 as these products tend to attract dust, and will affect the moving parts in the long term.

Painting a timber gate (single coat only)

$150

Heathfield SA, Australia

20th Nov 2024

Looking for someone to give this gate a single coat of paint. I was planning to do it but have run out of time. It doesn’t need to be a perfect job, just enough to improve the look. No prep required. The job doesn’t require a experienced painter - in fact, it might be a waste of time for them! I did a similar size gate today and it took me about 90 mins. I will provide paintbrushes and paint. Just need to turn up and get it done. Note the location will probably be in the sun for most of the day tomorrow 😬 I’m afraid it does need to be done tomorrow (Thursday)

Excellent work, incredibly flexible given we were very disorganised. Highly recommend!
