Kirra's homes and units sit close to the point and its famous surf, and the salt reaches every garage. Doors here tend to need more frequent servicing than the same door would a few suburbs inland.
If your door has started squealing or sticking, it's usually rollers and hinges giving way to corrosion, which is a straightforward fix.
Doors we see most in Kirra: Units, townhouses and beachside homes with sectional and roller doors.
