Although the fabric will be close up against your garage door, strong gusts of wind can damage it. We recommend unhooking the base of the fabric and rolling it up into the top tube during bad weather.

One person should firmly hold the bottom of the fabric while the other unhooks the fabric from base hooks, then hold the horizontal tube with both hands and slowly let it turn and remove the remainder of the tension from the spring. Secure the fabric around the tube, then each person should take an end each and gently unhook the tube from the brackets. Be careful when moving around and make sure you put it down somewhere safe, out of contact with materials that will damage it.
