What we fit in Inverurie

Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.

Jobs we can carry out

Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Inverurie?

In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Planning the work around your site

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair cold store doors in Inverurie?

Yes. We replace gaskets, frame heaters, rollers, tracks, releases and drives on most makes. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before larger repairs or recommend replacement when the leaf itself has failed.

Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.

Can our cold store door in Inverurie be made electric?

Often, yes, if the leaf and track are sound, or with a new electric sliding door. Powered cold store doors need safety edges and photocells and a drive suited to the temperature.
