Options that matter on site
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to freezers.
- Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
Powered door rules that apply in Peterhead
Peterhead is in Scotland, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
